SOUNDWAVE : 86 : ALISÚ

Today’s guest deejay is Jessica Campos de la Paz, AKA Alisú.

Alisú is yet another musician that Soundwave guest deejay Axel Arturo Barceló introduced me to (listen to Axel’s mix here).

Jessica is a Chilean producer and graphic designer and Alisú is her electronic project. She began her career in 1998 performing live sets of dub, techno, IDM and experimental sounds, not only as Alisú but also in the project Manziping with Rodrigo Rivera and Antonio Díaz, performing at many South American festivals. On her first release for Bottom Forty, she composed three beautiful, purely hardware based tracks for her Rompiente EP with rhythmic vibes that take you from resonant underwater depths up into reflective cosmic atmospheres.

Alisú’s mix for today’s show is sexy and a little bit dangerous. Her mix also demonstrates the versatility of ambient and instrumental music. If you listen to these genres of music or listen to Soundwave, you alrready know what I’m talking about. But to the layperson, ambient and instrumental music conjures up swathes of pretty sounds. When I encounter such notions, I point them to the music from artists like Alisú.

I’m going to wrap this entry up because tonight I will be taking the reedy to to Boston. It will be the first time in several decades that my dad, brother, sister and I will be under the same roof. I’m pretty busy, but hit me up and maybe we can meet for some socially distanced coffee.

Join us next week when our guest deejay will be Textere Oris.

See you then!
