Acousmatic ensemble with pre-hispanic instruments, old Mexican mariachi and avant-garde electronic, stories of Los Altos de Jalisco with contemporary resonance. Tecuexe Band is a powerful group which seeks to examine through diverse platforms the peculiarities of the musical heritage of Acatic and to highlight the cultural multiplicity of Mexico. Together the teacher and old Mexican music rescuer Javier López, the dislocated mind of Diego Martínez (Lumen lab) and the young musicians of the Mariachi Antiguo de Acatic generate timbres, atmospheres and rhythms that surround like the story by itself, a hitherto unknown Jalisco’s history.

Charles Modulation - City walker
Charles Modulation is a "old-fashioned" young: produces music with absolute calm, ignores or unknown trends that mark the media and social networks to date; his inspirations are long walks, listening and watching with complete deliberation; he privilege the dialogue beyond the computer and, of course, its proposal represents all this. Few young composers produce their music with such elegance and ”air" between sounds, with acuteness into his narrative; as well to combine with greatness electronic media, flute, guitar and drums.

Emmanuel Galván - Fábulas en cámara lenta
The narrative of this work contains no major surprises; in any case it is an invitation to be suspended in time and perhaps, if we turn up the volume, bodily. “Fábulas en cámara lenta” has the necessary sounds, well dosed environmental masses, and the needed contrasts, enough to be an extremely rich electronic composition. Lovers of ambient music, drone and esoteric soundscapes, will find in this first work of Emmanuel Galvan a great start. Just play & loop.
