Robin Guthrie Discografía

Biografía(Wikipedia/Ingles).

Spoiler:

Robin Guthrie (born 4 January 1962, Grangemouth Stirlingshire, Scotland) is a musician best known as co-founder of the Cocteau Twins. During his career Guthrie has played guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, drums and other musical instruments, in addition to programming, sampling and sound processing. Guthrie also works extensively as a producer and engineer. Following the break-up of the Cocteau Twins in 1998, Guthrie released his first solo record, Imperial, in 2003 on Bella Union Records. Guthrie's next release, which was co-written with Harold Budd, was the film score for Gregg Araki's Mysterious Skin. The soundtrack was released in June 2005 by Commotion and consists of fifteen complete songs based on the short pieces used in the film. In 2006, Guthrie signed a four-album solo deal with Darla Records, the first product of which was the LP Continental. He subsequently released two four-track EPs, Everlasting and Waiting for Dawn, and the track "Argenta" on the compilation Little Darla has A Treat For You v.24: Endless Summer Edition. Two more collaborations with Harold Budd (who had previously announced his musical retirement) were released simultaneously in 2007. Before The Day Breaks and After The Night Falls were both co-composed, co-produced and played with Budd. Like the soundtrack to Mysterious Skin, both albums are slow, drifting pieces primarily utilising treated guitar and piano. Guthrie's most recent release is 3:19 Bande Originale du Film, the soundtrack to the Dany Saadia-directed film 3:19. Guthrie has also collaborated with singer Siobhan de Maré (formerly of Mono) as the band Violet Indiana. Their first full-length LP, Roulette, was released in 2001 to much critical acclaim. A second album, Russian Doll, followed in 2004. In March 2006 Guthrie reported on his weblog that the group had started work again on new material. According to thisismyhappening music blog Carouselwill be released on Darla Records, September 28th, 2009. Additionally, Guthrie issued the Angel Falls EP in the Spring of 2009, and will release another Ep , Songs To Help My Children Sleep, November 17, 2009.

Ambient/Instrumental/Dream Pop/Ambient Pop

Después de cinco años desde la separación de Cocteau Twins, es lanzado el primer trabajo del co-fundador del afamado grupo de dream-pop. Obviamente su sonido esta cercano a lo que realizo anteriormente, aun así deja los compases mas rítmicos de lado y se centra en los sonidos mas quietos y reposados del ambient, creando por momentos buenas atmósferas, en donde y con sobrias mezclas instrumentales, entrega un parejo y delicado sonido, matizado por leves momentos de "fuerza", que dan un equilibrio que se agradece a los temas. Sus trabajos se separan suave y gradualmente de lo hecho antes.
Los tenues y cálidos arreglos son la formula permanente desarrollada por Guthrie para entregar un simple y directo trabajo, sin pretensiones ni virtuosismos, sus discos contienen un listado de temas agradables que con pausada melancolía nos pasean por lo que fueran las bases sonoras de los Cocteau Twins mezcladas con compases mas etéreos y oníricos, lo que produce un acogedor y "parejo" andar de tema a tema, con el sello inconfundible de las reverberaciones y "texturas" que dejan las composiciones entregándonos finos y delicados trabajos. Incluso en ciertos discos lo encontramos reduciendo aun mas su ya clásico estilo de interpretación. Esta discografía es un paseo por lo mas minimal del ambient en donde con se nos deleita con suaves melodías y ligeros sonidos, los discos se enmarcan dentro de la quietud y sobriedad llevadas al extremo, generando estados al borde de la contemplación; para matizar con sobria calidad nuestras biblios musicales.

Robin Guthrie And Harold Budd

Biografía Harold Budd(Wikipedia/Ingles):

Spoiler:

Harold Budd (born May 24, 1936) is an American ambient/avant-garde composer and poet. Born in Los Angeles, California, he was raised in the Mojave Desert, and was inspired at an early age by the humming tone caused by wind blown across telephone wires. Budd's career as a composer began in 1962. In the following years, he gained a notable reputation in the local avant-garde community. In 1966 he graduated from the University of Southern California with a degree in musical composition. As his career progressed, his compositions became increasingly minimal. Among his more experimental works were two drone music pieces, "Coeur d'Orr" and "The Oak of the Golden Dreams". "The Oak of the Golden Dreams" was based on the Balinese "Slendro" scale. After composing a long-form gong solo titled "Lirio", he felt he had reached the limits of his experiments in minimalism and the avant-garde. He retired temporarily from composition in 1970 and began a teaching career at the California Institute of the Arts. "The road from my first colored graph piece in 1962 to my renunciation of composing in 1970 to my resurfacing as a composer in 1972 was a process of trying out an idea and when it was obviously successful abandoning it. The early graph piece was followed by the Rothko orchestra work, the pieces for Source Magazine, the Feldman-derived chamber works, the pieces typed out or written in longhand, the out-and-out conceptual works among other things, and the model drone works [which include the sax and organ Coeur d'Orr and The Oak of the Golden Dream, the latter based on the Balinese "slendro" scale which scale I used again 18 years later on The Real Dream Of Sails [from the 1988 CD The White Arcades]. "In 1970 with the Candy-Apple Revision (unspecified D-flat major) and Lirio (solo gong "for a long duration") I realized I had minimalized myself out of a career. It had taken ten years to reduce my language to zero but I loved the process of seeing it occur and not knowing when the end would come. By then I had opted out of avant-garde music generally; it seemed self-congratulatory and risk-free and my solution as to what to do next was to do nothing, to stop completely. "I resurfaced as an artist in 1972 with Madrigals of the Rose Angel, the first of what would be a cycle of works under the collective title The Pavilion of Dreams. Madrigals refused to accommodate or even acknowledge any issues in new music. The entire aesthetic was an existential prettiness; not the Platonic to Kalon, but simply pretty: mindless, shallow and utterly devastating. Female chorus, harp and percussion seemed like a beautiful start. Its first performance was at a Franciscan church in California conducted by Daniel Lentz." [Budd, Harold, excerpt from liner notes for The Pavilion of Dreams, dated Los Angeles, October 1991.] [edit] Composer and recording artist Two years later, while still retaining his teaching career, he resurfaced as a composer. Spanning from 1972-1975 he created four individual works under the collective title The Pavilion of Dreams. The style of these works was an unusual blend of popular jazz and the avant-garde. In 1976 he resigned from the institute and began recording his new compositions, produced by British ambient pioneer Brian Eno. Two years later, Harold Budd's debut album The Pavilion of Dreams was released. Since then he has developed a unique and powerful style of ambient music. His two collaborations with Brian Eno, The Plateaux of Mirror and The Pearl, established his trademark atmospheric piano style. On Lovely Thunder he introduced subtle electronic textures. His thematic 2000 release The Room saw a return to a more minimalist approach. In 2003, Daniel Lanois, the renowned producer of U2 and Bob Dylan, and occasional collaborator of Brian Eno, recorded an impromtu performance of Harold playing the piano in his Los Angeles living room, unaware, and thus realized the album La Bella Vista. His album Avalon Sutra from 2004 was billed as "Harold Budd's Last Recorded Work" by the record label Samadhi Sound. Their press release continued: "Avalon Sutra brings to a conclusion thirty years of sustained musical activity. Asked for his reasons, Budd says only that he feels that he has said what he has to say. With characteristic humility, he concludes, "I don’t mind disappearing!" In spite of this, Budd's soundtrack to the film Mysterious Skin (a collaboration with Robin Guthrie) and Music for 'Fragments from the Inside' (with Eraldo Bernocchi) were both released in 2005. In February 2007, David Sylvian's independent record label Samadhisound released Perhaps, a live recording of Budd's improvised performance in tribute to his late friend (and associate teacher at the then newly formed California Institute of Arts) James Tenney. Recorded at CalArts on December 6, the album is only available as a digital download. Samadhisound released a podcast of Harold Budd in conversation with Akira Rabelais in April 2007. In this (Samadhisound Podcast #2), Harold said although he had believed at the time of recording Avalon Sutra that it would be his last album, he no longer felt that way. "It was a time in my life when things weren't just falling together for me, and I thought that I was just going to let it all slide ... and I was sincere about it but if I had been more conscious of my real feelings and had explored my inner sanctum more I would've seen that it was a preposterous thing to do ... I was dreadfully lonely; I was living alone in the desert and had been for too long, really, and I felt that isolation very severely after a while, and it's probably a version of self-pity, I'm sorry to say, to have publicly said something like that, but there it is, I said it, turns out I wasn't telling the truth - I didn't know it at the time." Darla Records released two CDs by Robin Guthrie and Harold Budd in June 2007, After the Night Falls and Before the Day Breaks. Recorded in Spring 2006, each features nine tracks with linked titles, e.g. "How Distant Your Heart"/"How Close Your Soul" and "I Returned Her Glance"/"And Then I Turned Away". In October 2008, a collaboration with Clive Wright entitled Song for Lost Blossoms was released by Darla Records. It includes recordings that were done live and in-studio at different locations, including both artists' homes. The album features some of their work done together between 2004 and 2006. A second collaborative effort with Wright, Candylion followed in 2009, again on Darla Records.

Incluyo estos trabajos de la colaboración de Robin Guthrie con el compositor de ambient/avant-garde y poeta Harold Budd, quien en su enorme discografía incluye trabajos junto a gigantes de la talla de Brian Eno y David Sylvian. Poseedor de un estilo de composición inigualable resurge a mediados de 1972, después de una pausa dedicada a la enseñanza, desarrollando dentro del colectivo The Pavillion Of Dreams lo que serian las bases de una sostenida búsqueda de niveles de experimentación cada vez mas centradas en lo mínimo y ambiental. Adquiriendo dentro del mundillo de este genero fama de permanente innovador y creador.
