about

"ORGANICITY" el nuevo EP de Sonique explora un sonido que busca borrar el límite entre lo sintético y lo orgánico. Grabado totalmente "a mano", utilizando instrumentos acústicos, eléctricos y electrónicos, absteniéndose de el uso de secuenciación, cuantización o MIDI, estableciendo así una síncopa "humanizada". Cada track explora conexiones de distintas músicas locales, tratando de unir los puntos geográficos de las diásporas que lo componen. Bahía (Intro), con la flauta traversa de B Kalm for Real (Andrés Muñoz Sarmiento), es una samba / jazz con toques de synthwave. Just Be Good, con las voces adicionales de Amarilis, es una fusión del "triángulo lusófono", combinando maracatú brasileño, semba angoleña y coladeira cabo verdiana. Funk Noir pt.1 está compuesta por percusiones Gwo Ka tradicionales de la isla de Guadalupe, sobre un ritmo de afro house surafricano y utilizando instrumentación trinitaria como el steel drum. Field Trip, cuenta con la participación del colectivo colombo - español Coroncoro La Nueva Rosca, que incluyen dos leyendas del folclor colombiano, Álvaro Llerena en alegres, hijo de Petrona Martinez y el folclorista chocoano Nicoyembe en tambora, proponiendo un bullerengue - soul. Finalmente Funk Noir pt. 2 es una especie de disco house, que combina patrones percusivos dominicanos propios del merengue, una línea de bajo de son montuno superpuestos a una estética reminiscente de la música disco oriental de Turquía e India de principios de la década de los 80.

“ORGANICITY”, Sonique´s new EP, explores a sound aiming to blur the line bewteen synthetic and organic sound. Recorded entirely “by hand”, without the use of MIDI sequencing or quantization, establishing a “humanized feel”. Each track explores connections between different localized musical genres, trying to join the geographical dots between them. Bahía (Intro), with B Kalm for Real (Andrés Muñoz Sarmiento) on flute, is a samba / jazz with synthwave touches. Just Be Good, with the additional voices of brazilian singer Amarilis, is a fusion of the “lusophone triangle”, combining brazilian maracatú, angolan samba, and cabo verdean coladeira. Funk Noir pt.1 is a south african afro house beat, with traditional guadeloupean Gwo Ka percussions and trinitarian steel pan. Field Trip, featuring colombian spanish collective Coroncoro La Nueva Rosca, includes two colombian folclore legends Álvaro LLerena on alegre drum and chocoan musician Nicoyembe on tambora, propelling a bullerengue soul. Finally Funk Noir pt. 2 is a disco house beat, spiced with percussive patterns from dominican merengue, a son montuno bass line and esthetics reminiscent of tukish and indian disco from the early 80s.
