Antoine Harispurus was raised by a robot called V.I.C.T.O.R. The robot took care of little Antoine and early on he gave him music lessons and also the right equipment, for example a Roland 808. Robotic, mechanical precision became significant for Antoines music and soon he left the safety of his mothers toy store for the huge European club scene under his new pseudonym ”Golden Bug”. This year he releases two songs as a 7” vinyl and in digital format on Höga Nord Rekords.  On the B-side ”Hitodama”, guest vocalist Jessica Ho is plays with her voice in a bubbly way above Golden Bugs characteristic metallic, world music influenced sounds and beats. The music would fit perfectly in a vast alien mountain landscape. In conclusion, the music on this 7” is the sound of human and robot in close symbiosis - Golden Bug is music by robot and human for robot and human.

Malagueñas 2 is the second single release from Bongo Joe's exploits into the history of the Spanish electronic underground: LA OLA INTERIOR: Spanish Ambient & Acid Exoticism 1983-1990. The compilation features 20 tracks selected from a fertile period of electronic music production and experimentation in Spain, which shines a light on a tape culture movement and buoyed by a fetish for an exoticism of Asia and Africa.

Made in 1990 in Tenerife but left to the archives and untouched, until now, Malagueñas 2 is an intense rush of electronic hypnotism and was discovered by compiler Loïc Diaz Ronda:

"I knew Javier Segura was influenced by acid folk in his first attempts and also that the Canarian Islands are the Spanish threshold to Africa, so I knew there had to be some tracks... Finally, I landed by chance on his youtube channel and discovered a bunch of unrealeased tracks from the early 90's. Among them, there were two versions of Malagueñas. Malagueñas 1 was a track with vocals. Malagueñas 2 was the instrumental version and it blew my mind as soon as i heard it. With its complex sound layers and its hypnotic pulse, the track had this Andalucian / Arabic flavour. It has only been listened to 10 times on youtube! Javier told me he loved this track immensely"

LA OLA INTERIOR COMPILATION
With the Spanish recordings and philosophy of the 'musica discreta' (Spanish ambient) movement overlapping the premise and manifesto of Brian Eno and Jon Hassell's Fourth World, compiler Loïc Diaz Ronda wanted to carve out deserved spaces for the artists involved, as key components within the history of experimental music. This 'post movida' selection features some cult and pioneering artists like Finis Africae, Suso Saiz (Music for Memory) and Miguel A. Ruiz but the majority of artists featured are generally unheard of in Spain or beyond. The album includes two tracks discovered and released for the first time ever (Suso Saiz's Horizonte Paseo & Javier Segura's Malagueñas 2), a handful of digital and vinyl exclusives and provides the musical backdrop to a scene that went under the radar, whilst simultaneously to the east, on the white island of Ibiza, another much publicised revolution, was well underway.
