He has compiled a bunch of favorite tracks for a new compilation of the program entitled "Siglo 21. 7.0" including a new track from forthcoming Fibla's album "Liants".

bRUNA is number one!! 



BAFF (Barcelona Asia Film Festival) invited FIBLA and ARBOL to create a new soundtrack for the Taiwan cult movie "Goodbye, Dragon Inn" by helmer Tsai Ming Liang (Taiwan, 2003). The result was an impresive show presented in Apolo (Barcelona) where music and images are perfectly interwoven and where the broken textures by Fibla fit nicely with the melancholy of Arbol melodies and lyricism of violinist Sara Pérez. This show was also presented in Territorios Festival (Sevilla), Caixa Forum (Madrid) and SonarSound in New York. One year later FIBLA and ARBOL go back to the studio where they have been reworking in those same tracks now released under the title of "Bu san". Beautiful and ghostly cover by Nano and inlay pictures by Jordi Azategui. Available on spa.RK store and in your favorite local record store!
Our new bid for 2009 shows every sign of becoming the most distinctive in spa.RK's discography: with their first full length LP, BRADIEN establish their name amidst the most selected and warm instrumental pop projects. Think about Maher Shalal Hash Baz, think about Ibon Errazkin. Bradien is a band – yes! a band! - formed in 2005 and currently made up of three musicians that play bass, trumpet, melodica, xylophone and guitar . Their album "Linden" is an original and charming record, having a trace of melancholic, summery nostalgia – that captivates us. It's a work which incorporates microelectronica, bedside-table folk, evocative soundtracks and the warmest pop. Totally gorgeous! Get it spa.RK store and in your favorite local stores. And stay tuned to get updates about BRADIEN live, certainly not to be missed! 




.TAPE. is always moving in new and unexplored territories. His new adventure shows he is absolutely fearless. He's again working with La Carnicería Teatro, the subversive theatre company leaded by Rodrigo Garcia, where he is at charge of the music of the play onstage. La Carnicería new play will send him travelling around the world as the play will be presented in Paris, Varsovia, Palermo, Mexico DF, Toulouse and his hometown Gijón. Also he has remixed a track from Moira Stewart band, right night only available on myspace but soon to be released on proper cd. Ah! And he'll be in Barcelona as part of Penca Catalogue band, his mate Luisfer's project, that will be playing in Sonar Festival after Pau Riba and his new project. A weird evening to be remembered! 


New adventure by Decoder Muzique, the company that handles the distribution of spa.RK in Spain and many other interesting labels. In a few days they are launching the first Spanish music store focused on underground dance music and independent pop-rock, in all formats - vinyl, cd, downloads. But it will have many other things: djs, artists and bands tips and charts in every specific genre, social network community, online radio and blogs, events calendar and music news, reviews and artist interviews. You'll find online all the spa.RK catalogue so this is a very welcome initiative!
EEDL contribute with a new track to the new Plataforma-ltw netlabel compilation "Popular is Wrong" (Ltwnet0020). 17 artists from different parts of the planet have submitted the best pieces of their most intimate electronica, done with lots of love and the clairvoyant title “Popular is Wrong”. Coming together gurus the size of Funckarma and Bichi, the lords of Spanish electronica such as Eedl, Sr.Aye, Az-Rotator, Rec_Overflow, Tupperwear, Crisopa, Noisome, Metropol, Boris Divider… and rising stars from European electronica Huron, FMcontrol, Pleq, Burdeos, Sytrjv and Sumire.
September 22nd marks the new beginning of Scanner Fm season. After summer break a lot of news: the station will be having a new frequency (96,6 FM) and new schedule (from 19 to 00:00 everyday of the week). spa.RK comes back with our Versus Electronic program, now all Fridays in the electronica night of Scanner FM. But online version of Scanner will be hosting many more programs and you can catch up all the old shows and exclusive contents. Don't miss it! It's the best indie station in Spain!
We better believe it: maybe last music lovers are in Japan! We already knew it but everytime we get our eyes in Japanese record stores we rediscover that these guys are passionate fans and real connaisseurs. This is the picture we received from the new .TAPE. album already exposed in a big record store. And yeah, he deserves his own labelled tray. Thanks to Masami and the people at Impartmain for their great job. Maybe is .TAPE. a mini-star in Japan? We better believe it!

Soon avalaible this killer 12" released on Spanish label Semantica with FIBLA pairing with Andy Stott in two excellent remixes of Vladislav Delay track "Recovery Idea". It seems that vinyl edition has been delayed, but digital edition is already available. This is what boomkat says about it: "Fibla focuses on the neon undercurrent of Delay's source material and exposes a squashed 4/4 tapestry that introduces some clipped distortion and complex beats into the equation, something that this artist has ample experience with"..
EEDL long awaited return has already been released! We have received bunches of emails asking about the album and some people already got their copy at Sonar 2007. So the time of waiting is over and "Everse", that is the title of the album, is ready to be discovered. Joan and Miguel have been working hard in their sounds, always paying a lot of attention to details and production and giving to their tracks a personal touch, Eedl trademark, that fine balance between different languages, broken rhythms and massive melodies. Some reviews added.
