abysmo: Renzniro
By Kit Macdonald
Abysmo is a new Barcelona-based promoter and booking agency focused, in their own words, "on bridging the gap between the local and international experimental and avant-garde music scene. A unique sonic offering explores the boundaries of sound, audiovisual, and performance." This is their first live event under the same name, and it is headlined by the Manchester artist and producer Rezniro, who explores themes of hope, faith and betrayal with sharp aphorisms over electric, grime-like instrumentals, and who will be bringing this unique sound to Spain for the first time.
Also on the bill is Nueen, a composer and producer born in Mallorca and based in Barcelona. He will present his new live/AV show for the first time, which is more than likely to be a pretty glorious trip given his proven record of creating beautiful ambient and pastoral electronic music that combines atmospheric textures with subtle rhythms and the Balearic influences of his homeland. DJ sets from Julietta Ferrari and Aire complete a packed bill.
