RMC Vinterjazz: IGNACIO CORDOBA

En lille person fra en lille landsby i bjergene i Madrid (Spanien), som mistede kontakten til virkeligheden ved at turnere verden rundt med 'Boksen' og 'The Quadriga', to elektroniske selvlavede guder, der overlader ham til deres svingningers almagt. De forvandler ham til en shaman, der forveksles med en videnskabsmand, en ingeniør i sin egen forvirring, en lærling, der er dedikeret til det gamle "håndværket" at gå i hundene.

Boksen er en totem. Det er en genbrugt industriel maskine, der leger med tiden ligesom hukommelsen gør: strækker sig, sænker lyden og fremskynder lyden, så den ser ud og forsvinder en smule og er anderledes hver gang. Fjernt og hypnotisk som et sort hul bruger han det til at føre os ind gennem undervandslyde, boblende atmosfærer og melankolske havfruekald. Vi vil fremføre et helt nyt 4-hovedet udyr lavet med fire oscillatorer i enderne af hans fire lemmer gennem et kvadrafonisk system af lyd og trance. Ignacio bruger disse enheder som triggere, der drukner ham i en krops-trance-tilstand, som shamaner og hekse har beskrevet og oplevet i århundreder.

I 2016 grundlagde han MAGIA og har udgivet musik gennem det såvel som gennem Repetidor (SP), Dokuro (IT) og Punctum (CZ). Han har siden spillet mere end 200 shows over 6 europæiske tours gennem 17 lande og en japansk tour.

Han har fundet på at lave fanziner, udstillinger, videoer, spil, ritualer, plader og koncerter med kunstnere som Michael Pisaro, Pamelia Kurstin (Stickney), G.W. Sok (Eks), John Russell, Maggie Nicols, Søren Kjaergaard, Maria Laurette Friis, Kazehito Seki, Johanna Borchert, Fernando Junquera (Negro), Isasa, Ainara LeGardon og så mange flere.

A small person from a small village in the mountains of Madrid (Spain) who lost touch with reality by touring the world with The Box and The Quadriga, two electronic self-made gods that render him electionless to the omnipotence of their oscillations. They turned him into a shaman mistaken for a scientist, an engineer of his own confusion, an apprentice devoted to the craft of being lost.
The Box is a Totem. It is a repurposed industrial machine that plays with time like memory does: stretching, slowing and speeding sound, making it appear and disappear a bit different every time. Distant and hypnotic like a black hole, he uses it to get us to underwater sounds, bubbly atmospheres and melancholic mermaid calls. We will perform a brand new 4-headed beast made with four oscillators at the ends of his four limbs through a Quadraphonic system of sound and trance. Ignacio uses these devices as triggers that drown him in a body-trance state that shamans and witches have described and experienced for centuries.

In 2016 he founded MAGIA and has released music through it as well as through Repetidor (SP), Dokuro (IT) and Punctum (CZ). He has since played more than 200 shows over 6 European Tours through 17 countries and a Japanese Tour.

He has found himself making fanzines, exhibitions, videos, games, rituals, records and concerts with artists like Michael Pisaro, Pamelia Kurstin (Stickney), G.W. Sok (The ex), John Russell, Maggie Nicols, Søren Kjaergaard, Maria Laurette Friis, Kazehito Seki, Johanna Borchert, Fernando Junquera (Negro), Isasa, Ainara LeGardon and so many more.
