Buenos Aires, March 9 (NAN- Agency 2011) .- Vanessa kidney, low-fi girl (well known for his radio program in an on-line) I wanted to start a new musical project. In this search he met Nacho Martínez, a guitarist - and brother of one of his friends - with whom he shared some musical tastes. Motivated by the idea of \u200b\u200bhaving fun jamming, it s trials consisted in exchanges of sounds and styles, while thinking of putting together a group with other musicians. That idea was short, and they noticed they did not need more than a bass and vocals led by her, and a guitar with a drum to set the pace, a task that he undertook. And so the duo began to sound like you would a band, with the only difference that when discussing is much easier to understand in pairs.
No chance that a couple of music is called differently: "The long fangs bite of two, and when you leave two holes nailed," said Vanesa to agency NAN. And so personally took the name of a little , digging and chewing sounds of South America managed to install itself as a distinct style and constant innovation.
Gories Influenced by bands like The Doors and Gun Club, the band started doing puzzles that arose between zapadas and gra bacione home that led to the first issues. With raw sounds and simple lyrics, the duo took their first steps in Uruguay, back in 2006, but managed to make himself known to return, when the first bit Uncle public Bizarro, Burzaco bar known for its style under. From that time began to dig into different scenarios of Chile and Peru. The latter country - who arrived in 2010 - was the most important for professional growth the band, because he managed to be one of the few to which the label Discos Gorda reissued his first album.
"Many people thought we were going to run out a way to make music so limited it was to be two people, but the truth is that we are taking turns to history and does not seem to be so," analyzed Vanesa who also said he is very questionable for rock style sung in English. But the prejudice that was exposed is not something they worry. So when responding to the public all reasoning is simplified in that language that reaches around the world and therefore his music reach everywhere. While the new
year is composing new songs and taking their music to the scenes of Buenos Aires, the "duo orchestra gave an overview of its history and preferences.
- On stage, the audience can see they are a duo, but when you close your eyes and listen to the combinations sound like a band. How do they live the experience of being two and four sound like? Vanesa
Kidney: - Basically, what we do and how we leave out. We never did something that was premeditated, this works well and we like. We sound like a band because we do not lose the "bump" sight and are a duo, something more streamlined and minimalist, more direct. Being two is better, more comfortable. Before playing with a band (the Courvets) and when many had many differences. Of two is easier to understand.
Nacho Martínez: - Playing well is better because we always understand as well as compact everything. One of the things that attracts me musically this is that we sound as a band and also use old techniques of the blues, the kind where you saw a black man playing guitar and marking time with his shoe.
- That should make a big difference when composing ...
VR: - And yes, because sometimes we get together to improvise, we recorded and we like listening to a piece of the item but not all. Sometimes it happens that we return to play and part of another item ends up being the continuation of which we had left. The good thing is that we focus on composing, do what comes out without pressure. We played together or separately, and share what comes out.
- are characterized by a very primitive and raw sound, the style of the '60s and '70s, but still have some air today. How are the mergers?
VR: - do not have much drama with it. Progress we see what looks good and sometimes bass, bass guitar and we added some other instrument. We are changing but always on our bases. This is because although we have defined the rawness of the sounds, do not have a marked style and that allows us to change. Many people thought we were going to run out a way to make music so limited it was to be two people, but the truth is that we are taking turns to history and always sounds different. The slogan is to play for fun and unplugged from other activities.
NM: - The predominant style is because we love the music of that time, in fact our influences are related to those years. But with the issue of mergers are pretty open to trying all because they do not try to recreate or copy items as they are, what we do is put our label, use them as molds to do the same.
- And within the logic of "playing for fun" were walking by some Latin American countries and sharing experiences. What was all that?
NM: - met a lot of people that follow after contacting us, we invite you to play, arrange dates, exchange ideas. Getting to Peru was one of those experiences. Manganzoides met there, a band of like very much also helped us to make this album reissued by Fat Records. Was a nice experience.
VR: - The band started with the exchange. We made our debut in Uruguay. After the band played here in Peru and last year we went there. We like the idea of \u200b\u200bstrengthening the ties between musicians from South America because although the distances are great, this is not like in Europe where there are more festivals, and it is good that the exchange will begin to mobilize Latin American gang.
- Taking into account this idea of \u200b\u200bthe union of Latin American musicians and their tendency to write lyrics in English thinking Have they ever crossed the chance to sing in Castilian?
NM: - I think it is more difficult to compose letters in Castilian. Upon hearing so many bands that sing in English I find it more natural. Anyway, try to make a pair in Castilian but we like to be business as usual.
VR: - is by the nature of style. We are sometimes criticized for singing in another language, but we like the soul and the blues, which began to sing in this way. Doing it in Castilian would be like singing a tango in English. Think you have to write in our language is to think that this will not reach all, why everything has to be here, so nationalistic? Things simple but sing in English, not kill us thinking Lyrics so that later end up being interpreted in any way, we sing about what happens to us every day.
NM: - In this we agree, which does not mean that bother us sing something in Castilian. We boxes but we do best in English because that's what we like.
