about

In the cosmic expanse of Nicolás Carcavilla's creative universe, Rennek’s “The Outland Devices” unfurls as a parallel tapestry. Here, decisions, melody, and composition don a rebellious mantle, diverging from his own accustomed norms. Discovered within this realm is the notion that music is and has always been there. The fewer thoughts pondered, the more fluidly the gestures sprawls, almost as if they are entities yearning to manifest. It becomes a celestial merry-go-round, where every sound finds its perfect match, and these so-called "coincidences" birth the songs themselves.

The materials encapsulated in this album emerge from explorations into sound installation concepts. Envision stations adorned with objects, humming TVs, VCRs, and DVD players in unison, drawing from haphazard and disparate sources. It's a chaos of elements that miraculously harmonize. Then, amidst this cacophony, electric and acoustic guitars are introduced, subjected to spontaneous processing and improvisation as a myriad of films unfolds in the ethereal space.

The mixing console, a divine instrument, becomes the conduit for manipulating matter, time and movements. It is as if the Moirai themselves chart the courses of these audio realms. Invaluable lessons are absorbed from that divine board, yet the essence unfolds in acting without the shackles of conscious thought. Listening happens, but actions aren't dictated by it. It feels like channeling an indefinable force, something beyond comprehension, with no pretense of complete understanding.

Even if one, like a sort of Moirai, perceives a semblance of control, there is a realization that nothing is truly governed, but embraced. The beauty lies in the acceptance of life as it is—an incredible yet simple revelation that transcends the need for control.
