[ENGLISH]

Salviatek introduces its sixth release: Privacidad, from Bolivian producer Funeral.

Born in La Paz, the DJ/producer characterizes his sound by redefining the elements of marginalized musical genres, from contemporary urban rhythms to those specific to the Latin American region, creating a vanguard sound with a strong, undeniable identity.

Metallic breaks, emotive synthesizers, and layered melodies merge with pre-hispanic club rhythms over the course of five tracks, forming a unique, never-heard-before effort from Funeral and the Salviatek label. The complete piece is an innovative, club-ready auditory manifesto that invites us to not only closely listen to it, but to feel, think, and heal with it.

Encrypted inside the artwork is a hidden fifth track that can be accessed with the download of the full release from Salviatek's bandcamp site, conveying the album's conceptual strategy for privacy as a means of connecting the user and the artform far from industry's logics.

Salviatek


The (post) modernity reaching its top magical and destroying power has given the kickstart for this venture to our record label. It has been composed in such a way that it will only be able to be listened to against the grain. The fifth elements of this great movement point the bright sharp auditive object with a gesture of complicity of the ones who listen.

In the embers of a world ruled by image hypertrophy, only the valorization of the other senses can undo the spell. It is in the tremor of the detail where we can take refuge. And only when the above does not respond to chance or to an alleged harmony, is it when we can say that what we hear looks at us. In front of everyone and in front of anyone's eyes.

"We only see what is in front of us but we never see what is above."

The only way to overcome this vulnerability is to expose yourself.

Salviatek presenta su sexto lanzamiento: Privacidad, del productor boliviano Funeral.

DJ/Productor nacido en La Paz, caracterizado por la recontextualización de elementos propios de géneros musicales marginados tanto de calle como sonidos propios de la región latinoamericana, creando así un sonido de vanguardia que lleva una fuerte carga de identidad.

Silencios metálicos, sintetizadores emocionales y melodías en capas se fusionan con ritmos prehispánicos a través de 5 canciones formando en su conjunto, algo único y sin precedentes de parte de Funeral y Salviatek. El EP completo es un innovador manifiesto sonoro listo para la pista que nos invita no solo a escucharlo atentamente, si no también a sentir, pensar y sanar con él.

Encriptado dentro de la portada hay un quinto tema que puede ser escuchado descargando el álbum completo desde el sitio de Bandcamp de Salviatek, transportando la estrategia conceptual de "privacidad" como un método de conectar con el usuario y la obra de arte lejos de la lógica de la industria.

Salviatek

La (post) modernidad alcanzando su máximo poder mágico y destructor es el puntapié inicial que da origen a esta nueva peripecia del sello. Compuesta de manera tal que tan sólo podrás descubrir su mensaje escuchándola a contrapelo, los cinco componentes de este gran movimiento apuntan en el brillo filoso de cada objeto sonoro un gesto de complicidad entre quienes escuchamos.

En las cenizas de un mundo regido por la hipertrofia de la imagen, sólo la puesta en valor de los otros sentidos podrá desarmar el conjuro. Es en el temblor del detalle dónde podremos refugiarnos. Y sólo cuando lo expuesto no responda al azar o a una presunta armonía, es cuando podremos decir que lo que oímos nos mira. Delante de todos y ante los ojos de nadie.

"Solo vemos lo que está delante de nosotros pero nunca vemos lo que está encima."

La única forma de sobrepasar esta vulnerabilidad es exponerse.
