Elvira – Pequeños Apuntes Para Canciones De Mierda CD

The walls of the city are falling on you. And, either you can afford a car to get away with, or you have to find a window and build a worthwhile world inside your room. And a guitar, a microphone and a computer are then a good investment. If you are also lucky enough that music flows constantly in your hands, in your brain and in your throat, and if you have been able to learn to dominate it, to shape it with your tools, having a computer, a microphone and a guitar may be the best investment of your life. Elvira, after years of war with Standstill, and others with It's Not Not, feels very good about having spent the savings on all that type of material. Because now his realization as a musician is practically total. Precisely because it is still the heart of Standstill and the engine of It's Not Not, now it is also Elvira's brain. Because he is the only one who knows where each drum touch and each note on this album is, because he has done everything himself, from drums to vocals, through keyboards, basses, percussion and various other instruments. And so all your sensitivity can shine in a unique and strictly personal way.

Following in the footsteps of artists such as the Akron family, the Anticon label and their creative freedom on the one hand, imprinting the personality of Standstill's guitar of which he himself has been the architect, combining ambient passages with an ethereal atmosphere with hip-hop bases, precious acoustics and percussion of all kinds, Elvira conveys her musical universe through a self-production that includes collaborations such as those of her partner in Standstill, Ricky Lavado, or Marco Fonktana from Aerolíneas Subterráneas. With Víctor Valiente (also at Standstill) helping him with the mixes, Elvira has put the first grain of sand in a castle that we hope will continue to grow.
