Out on April 14 Spira, the first album of the singer, instrumentalist and electronic musician Daniela Pes , already winner of the prestigious Andrea Parodi Prize and the Nuovo Imaie and Musicultura prizes. Preceded by the single Carme, the album comes out for the Tanca Records label on vinyl and on all digital platforms, with the artistic production of IOSONOUNCANE.
Seven tracks surrounded by the song of an artist with a multifaceted talent , devoted to the deconstruction of the song form and the deconstruction of the language to create an esoteric sound world in which archaic, contemporary and futuristic mix.
Born in Gallura in 1992, Pes has a solid jazz education behind her, including a degree in Jazz Singing at the Sassari Conservatory and a scholarship at the Nuoro Jazz Summer Seminars directed by Paolo Fresu, which leads her to perform at Time in Jazz and at the Harp Festival in Rio de Janeiro.
In Spira he sings in a language that doesn't exist (yet) . Ancient Gallura words, fragments of Italian terms, totally invented words are the organic molecules of an unprecedented language in which the verses are free from metrics and the words are not the vehicle of a concept, but pure sound.
Composed on guitar and with the Ableton software over three years – a period of time in which a profound and constant confrontation with IOSONOUNCANE developed – the seven tracks of Spira develop as sound streams rather than songs and seem to draw the music of a shamanic ritual celebrated in a remote and hallucinatory future.
A familiar music in the vocal melodic lines that are rooted in tradition and, at the same time, as alienating as the landscapes populated by wild masks represented in Charles Fréger's photographs.
