Records: Desatornillándonos by Luciana Bass
Relative Pitch Records, 2024
Luciana Bass is a guitarist who graduated in sound arts & design at the university of the arts london. She is interested in (along with many other things!) sound exploration and experimentation and her preferred choice is, normally, the electric guitar.
This record has stark aesthetic shifts, going between bluesy and abstract territory. After the first two pieces, which “set the ends of the spectrum”, the others move between these two languages. What’s cool is that this allows you to pay close attention to textural qualities of Luciana’s playing. She gets good snap on her pull offs and picking. There is a personal quality to this record that comes out of the juxtaposition of these sounds. As someone who started with rock music and now improvises, I hear in this music my own joy with the guitar. Chuck Roth
