I am a musician from Madrid, soundtrack and music for theater composer, or that's what I think. If you are looking for a professional with a broad academic and musical degree; I'm not the one you're looking for. Yes, I studied music at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Madrid, but I did not finish my studies, although every day I value more the time I was there.
Then I belonged during the 80 and 90 to several rock bands like Trifide Freud, which I was a founding member, or Soul Bisontes and have collaborated with different bands and musicians, such as Nacho Laguna, Pablo Cobollo, Javier Corcobado, Usura, Ana Béjar or José Luis Moreno-Ruiz, among others.
Since the mid-90s, apart from I make a living with another profession, I compose music for theater plays and short films when I can and someone wants my music. I love it when I hear that at least one person has enjoyed listening to my music. My music is electroacoustic, between modern-classical and experimental.
I like to combine with the making of videos that sometimes start from music and other times, it is the music that arises from the creation of a video. My musical exploration begins with the piano or the guitar, which I then continue with other instruments, with programming and effects ending with the violin. Well, this is not always the case. I practice my particular battle against virtual instruments: I acknowledge that every time they bring out tools that more and better imitate reality, but I always use acoustic instruments or real pedals and real synthesizers played as instruments to record the final master. Sure, you can get great sounds that faithfully mimic reality and it's a commendable task, but it's not for me.
