First part, «Fusing Into Black»:
Recently I’ve uploaded to this website a new recording, which I uploaded to Facebook two or three weeks ago. If you want to know the most fast as possible my news, I recommend you to suscribe to the Facebook websites (José Travieso and Cautiva), as much as frequently I’ll write there before than here, especially because it’s more informal and fast. If you want to know more about how to connect with my Facebook website, please read the news on “January, 2012”.
What about the new track? Well, «Fusing Into Black» has been a new step in my musical ambitions, in this case experimeting with the fusion of styles (progressive rock, jazz, electronic, hiphop methods of compositions…) and the synthesizers and electronic ways. If I had to connect this new piece with some of my other recordings, it would be the «Don’t Kill the Vynil» stuff of the last year, because the union of electronic, experimentation and fusion. Anyway, the result is very different and I never made any music like this. It has been hard to work in this case, so that I hope you like 😛
«Fusing Into Black» began as a work of mix and restauration for a previous piece for two doubled pianos (or something like this) of my good friend Juncorquestra. I decided to make a new piece inspired by the very beginning of the track. The original idea was to make some modifications, but preserving the original air of the composition. The project changed radically in the next days and the final result is a piece completely different. I invite you to compare «Fusing Into Black» with the original Juncorquestra’s «Oh Vaya» and watch by yourself. Don’t lose this opportunity, as much as the original «Oh Vaya» is a really beautiful and fantastic piece 🙂
«Fusing Into Black» tries to describe too the meaning of the black color for me in the music.
…And second part, Cautiva and the future:
Recently some fans have write me to ask for the new CAUTIVA album that supposely I’m recording, and I would like to say that Cautiva is not going actually to release any new album. I want to write this here because I’ve found in some forums that I’m going to make a new album, information based on my last post of “January, 2012”, and this isn’t exactly true. I would like to make a new album and to destroy a few of “hi-fi”s in your bedrooms :-), but this is too ambitious for me in the actuallity. I need more time than I actually have or will have, so that simply I can’t take a decision like this. Maybe I didn’t explain properly the last time and I created false expectations, so that I repeat what I said two months ago or I know know: I’ve begun to think again about Cautiva; I would like to make at least one or two new compositions; I’m playing again the guitar (but actually not composing); and the perfect thing, for me, would be to complete a new EP before the end of 2012. I can’t see more than this 🙂
After «Fusing Into Black» my effort goes to Cautiva, but unfortunately I’m, at the moment, very busy with other things (musical and not musicals) and I’ll have little time to dedicate to my own music. I’ll try, little by little, to make true my new intentions with Cautiva, but it’ll be in summer when I find an important space of time to work. Meanwhile, let’s begin to walk…
Yours,
Now playing – silence, so nice sometimes…
