Burbuja

After performing with groups such as Plexus and Las Perras del Infierno, Spain's Merche Blasco formed Burbuja as a vehicle for her own musical exploration. Since it's conception two years ago, she has participated and collaborated with various artists, establishing a strong relationship between different mediums of artistic expression and her own musical direction. She has composed music to accompany the sculptures of Lucy Orta at the Venice Biennial and soundtracks for videos and installations by the artists of Fabrica. Cristian Vogel meticulously edited the field recordings that Burbuja collected during two years of living in different European cities. Further tracking and vocal takes were then recorded, creating an intimate debut of found sound and haunting melodies. The 13 songs offer a glimpse into a fragile and introspective artistic microcosm where everyday activities such as cooking, riding a bike or eating breakfast serve as sound sources and lyrical themes.
