Text and artist bio by Tripticks Tapes:
"After a year with plenty of band-oriented releases and collaborations, Àlex Reviriego goes back to the solo, his favorite format and one that he's been cultivating since the very beginning of his career. Following Blaue Tauben (Sirulita 2018), Raben is the second chapter of his “german poets trilogy”, this time inspired by the writings of Paul Celan.
If the Trakl-inspired Blaue Tauben was full-on in the bleak expressionistic domain, packed with grit and aggression, this new collection of solo pieces gravitates toward a more contemplative and pensive mood. Extremely slow, repetitive bowings, muted stubborn tremolos and luminous harmonics interact in an almost static dance, reflecting Celan's stark and cryptic language.
Rejecting almost any tendency towards development, narrative or overt emotionality, this music is “just there”, facing us with a blank stare, listening to us as much as we listen to it. acts are repeated, again and again, creating an inner chart of codes and meanings.
Recorded by Ferran Fages with a minimal setup and mastered by Lasse Marhaug, it retains the numbing cold of the winter days of 2019 when it was recorded.
BIO:
Àlex Reviriego (Barcelona, 1986) plays double bass, organ and electronics. He is a member of the bands Phicus, Inhumankind, Ràdium and Möhit, and one of the most active and in-demand musicians in the experimental music scene in Spain, appearing Raben (Tripticks Tapes 2021) is the second installment of a trilogy started with Blaue Tauben (Sirulita 2019), loosely based around the figures of Georg Trakl, Paul Celan and Friedrich Hölderlin.
