Debut vinyl by
Cruz Perro Maldito
, a Tenerife based trio forever imbued in the collective imagination and folklore myths of the magical and misty mountain of Agua García, located in Tacoronte district at the foot of Teide Volcano (Tenerife/Canary Islands). Their music is an explosion of free jazz improv where sophisticated sound textures emerging from modular synths and processed guitars, creating abstract and random rhythmic patterns with complex saxophone lines guiding the ensemble from quiet to menacing passages of sudden bursts of noise and frenzy. Entitled
Truquetin Resorte
, the album takes inspiration from the rich history of mechanical automata, such as Talos, the bronze giant who defended the island of Crete and was eventually defeated by Jason and his Argonauts. Or Ape-ga de Nabis, a replica of
King Nabis
's wife whom crossed unsuspecting victims with its iron spikes hidden in the device's lower arms, hands, and breasts. Or even
René Descartes
and his infamous daughter-like Automaton replica, an eerie creation from the renown philosopher to evoke his dead daughter. These myths and more serve as reminder of a mechanical world's past, a world of complex automata stories with mechanic "imitating" beings as its problematic protagonists. An eerie counterpoint to our current uber modern digital world and its rapid advancing A.I.s. Food for "mechanical" thought... Cruz Perro Maldito are: Ricardo Marichal - tenor saxophone; Carlos Pérez - drums, objects, electronics; David Paredes - guitar, modular synth.
