João Pais Filipe delivers three acoustic Solo percussion works for Ondes HXCX. The three tracks were originally recorded for an Exhibition called "Membrana". The recording took place in a church in Northern Portugal, using only Drums. Three different Odd Time Signatures were extensively explored on each track, 18/16, 19/16, 23/16 and for the first time, a technique called "omission" was also introduced. It consists of omitting notes of the Rhythm without changing it, creating a sense of illusion and changing the perspective of the Rhythm. Burnt Friedman, an accomplice of João's studies on Odd Rhythms focuses on blending counter-rhythmic electronic elements into the 23/16 track. (Mint / New)
