about

SUSTAINER / ANTICUARIO [RTE0016]

Visitar un anticuario es un viaje a un pasado incierto en el que se encuentran objetos aletargados, pero cargados de valor estético, histórico y sentimental, esperando ser rescatados para perpetuar su identidad y poder vivir una segunda oportunidad.

En "Anticuario", Alex Alarcón aka Sustainer exhuma, empleando herramientas digitales para restauración y procesado de sonido, géneros musicales ya olvidados, otorgándoles de nueva forma y estructura. Los objetos de su "Anticuario" son antiguas grabaciones de música popular que cayeron en el olvido, pero sin llegar a difuminarse por completo. Hoy, tras un largo y minucioso trabajo de edición, como si de arqueología sonora se tratase, nos los presenta preservando su identidad, aunque con distinta apariencia.

_________________________

Visiting an antique shop is a journey into an uncertain past in which one finds objects that are dormant but still loaded with aesthetic, historical and sentimental value, waiting to be rescued in order to perpetuate their identity and, perhaps, to allow them to live a second life.

In "Anticuario", Alex Alarcón aka Sustainer uses digital restoration and sound processing tools to exhume forgotten musical genres, giving them new form and structure. The objects in his "Anticuario" are old recordings of popular music that have fallen into oblivion but have not completely faded. Now, after a long and meticulous process of editing akin to sound archaeology, he presents these forgotten objects to us, preserving their identity while creating a very different appearance.
