Hello everyone!
I’m Nacho, I’ve recently been introduced to this great community by friends (members of the muti council) - they have always been willing to support my work, and they’re doing it one more time
I’m super excited to present you my proposal for January’s edition of muti.rec!
muti.rec: achoNacho EP recording
Project members:
Nacho Carrillo - achonacho.near
Tilly Pegrum
Emma Whallett
Joaquim DeBrito - shakalofi.near
**Funding Period:**January 2022
Description:
“Acho”: multi use expression used across all contexts and generations, meaning pretty much everything: it’s a sign of identity of Murcia (Spain) and its culture
achoNacho is the solo project of Nacho Carrillo, a Spanish composer and singer based in Lisbon.
Throughout his artistic life he has participated in various musical projects. However it wasn’t until he moved to Lisbon, where he was influenced by the dynamic artistic scene, that he started to play around the city with the songs that had been travelling with him. He found himself comfortable in a place where music and performance share the same importance.
In this first 5 tracks EP he mixes the sounds of old and new Spanish songwriters, Latin rhythms, warm melodies from here and there… some thoughts about time, life and love, while exploring the sounds of the guitar, its atmospheres and its intimacies.
This funding will go towards the costs involved in renting a studio for two days to record mix and master the EP, musicians fee (Emma Whallett on charge of flute and a third band member still to determine) as well as the artwork and design for the EP that will be created by Tilly Pegrum (link to her art below) / Emma and Tilly will be onboarded with a Near wallet.
Breakdown:
$ 595 - Studio Rental EP package (Recording for three days + engineer + mixing and mastering)
$ 80 - Art work
$ 40 - Flautist
$ 60 - Percussionist
Total of 775 USD.
