El Intruso presents VIERNES

This album has been about 2 years in the making, and the physical object is finally available. Since this project has occupied most of my musical energies, it´s only fitting that it receive a proper presentation on my blog.

El Intruso - Viernes




Here´s a blurb we put together about the album:

This is their first record and from an artistic standpoint is conceived as a high resolution photograph of the sonic and musical ideas distilled in their improvisatory studio sessions held throughout 2009 and 2010. The result pays homage to the 70′s and demonstrates the exploratory spirit of their collective activities; a robust and personal take on rock with a timeless sound.
The studio process was technically and artistically directed toward the album’s final format as a “Long Play” on 12” vinyl. It was recorded and mixed by Raquel Redel “Raka” and El Intruso at Okoumé Studios, Madrid. Carlos Bratt collaborated on the conception of the vocals. It was mastered by Carlos Koschitzky at MasterStudio, Madrid. The art and design was done by Tomoto. The album was wholly produced and codirected by the following authors:

Qmins (drums, percussion)
Javi (Bass guitars)
Sam (voices, guitars)
DDixon (synths, voices)
Hectruso (guitars, effects)
