about

L'Ocell is the duo project of Àlex Reviriego (double bass) and Fernando Carrasco (acoustic guitar), since 2015. El Declivi, their third release, was recorded featuring Ferran Fages on electric guitar in an old church in Miànigues, a small town in the province of Girona (Catalonia), after a period of collaboration as a trio in which they performed several concerts.

Their free improvised music shapes cathartic and primitive drones and soundscapes. Dark beauty passages, with psych folk and early music reminiscences, are interfered and disrupted by unexpected apparitions of metallic noises, chaotic percussions and amorphous noises. The oases of harmonies degrade and collapse as a construction abandoned at the mercy of the relentless effects of time and nature.

The three musicians involved on this recording know each other well due to being part of Barcelona's improvised and weird music scene, and have played together on other projects such as Phicus and Ràdium, where Reviriego and Fages collaborate. Carrasco and Reviriego, in addition to L'Ocell, were part of Völga and have performed live together in many different ensembles and contexts.
