R E S E Ñ A S / R E V I E W S

Eduardo Briganty's cult Gran Canaria trio Miniatura return with their fourth album of Lynchian, Krautrock-inspired dream pop. RIYL Neu!, Electrelane, Stereolab, Lali Puna.
It's been way too long since the last Miniatura album - 2015's "Estrategias de Perdición" - but this has given Briganty and his collaborators time to artistically gather themselves and distill their musical and artistic references into a coherent whole. The band describe the album as "a cross of concept album and an unintentional imaginary soundtrack to a David Lynch flick", and it's hard to disagree - Miniatura film their sounds in smoked-out monochrome, situating their melancholy motorik jams between Joy Division's pitch-black post-punk and Neu!'s high-minded Krautrock.
"Geometriá Prohibida" offers nothing particularly new, but Gran Canaria aren't afraid of wearing their influences on their sleeve, rolling through vintage sounds and styles with an endearingly joyful rattle. And while the overwhelming atmosphere is bleak and foggy, there's a depth and precision to their songwriting that keeps you alert throughout. [BOOMKAT]

Das auf Gran Canaria beheimatete Trio MINIATURa bringt sein viertes, mit Unterstützung von Eduardo Briganty entstandene Album “Geometría Prohibida” heraus – eine hypnotische Verknüpfung krautig-psychedelischer Entrücktheit mit der gedämpften Abgründigkeit eines postpunkigen Aufnahmekellers, bei der auch die mit derartiger Musik zwangsläufig verbundenen Befindungen eine interessante Fusion eingehen. Unter anderem für Freunde von Stereolab, A Place to Bury Strangers und des Moon Duos eine Empfehlung. Das Album erscheint Ende Mai auf Vinyl und digital bei Keroxen. [ AFRICAN PAPER ]

Eduardo Briganty compone unas melodías que tienen una expresividad voluptuosa, ricas en capas de sonido que exploran sendas inesperadas, preñadas de misterio, silencios, graves palpitantes y cinemática pantanosa. Música sexy y cerebral a la par, en tensión constante, a punto de estallar en nuestro cerebro. Sonidos que recuerdan a Neu!, Décima Victima, Can, Spacemen 3 o Scott Walker [MUZIKALIA ]

Kako zelo so se globalno spremenile „scene“ posameznih področij, priča tudi pojav zasedb s Kanarskih otokov. Človek bi pričakoval neko razposajeno, plesno muziko, a triu MINIATURa bi prej pripisali urbani rodovnik. So še eni mnogih, ki zglede vlečejo iz nemške krauterske šole, predvsem se oprijemajo tega repetitivnega, hipnotičnega gruva dua Neu!, nenazadnje, na dobro podlago je mogoče položiti marsikaj, in to učinkuje. MINIATURa polagajo večinoma po shoegazersko razmazano kitaro, kje se spustijo celo v darkerske linije, le petje ostaja zasanjano, skoraj eterično tudi ob mestoma bolj nabriti muziki. Album Geometria Prohibida je že njihov četrti, a prvi po letu 2015. Za sedem kompozicij so si vzeli sedem let in na koncu ponudili borih 25 minut sveže muzike. Ker je format albuma itak v izumrtju, je prav vseeno koliko pesmi hkrati objavi določen izvajalec. Večinoma se bodo vrtele v playlistah. Po svoje žalostno, vsaj Geometria Prohibida zveni kot celota, ima svoj logični tek in dinamični lok in MINIATURa zagotovo ne „zaostajajo“ za slavnejšimi zasedbami iz angleško govorečih dežel. [Rock Obrobje]

Aunque las bases sonoras de la música de MINIATURa, las podemos encontrar en el noiserock, el shoegaze y el krautrock, no juega con un patrón reconocible en el que cada canción apuesta a una sola carta, y eso se debe a un ejercicio de esencialismo, honestidad, práctica y de madurez musical, que hacen de “Geometría Prohibida” el disco de consagración de la banda. Se nos va a hacer difícil encontrar bandas de rock nacional a día de hoy, con un sonido tan sui generis como MINIATURa. [Madafackismo Underground]


ENGLISH PRESS RELEASE INFO

Melancholic energy blast from Gran Canaria’s cult trio, MINIATURa, helmed by Eduardo Briganty.

Formed in Las Palmas and with three records under their belt, Music Box (2007), La Huida Concéntrica (2012) and Estrategias de Perdición (2015) the trio now unleashes its fourth album with a distillation of Briganty's musical and artistic references, coming like a cross of concept album and an unintentional imaginary soundtrack to a David Lynch flick – an island version of a depressed or irate David Lynch.

Featuring deep rock workouts to somnambulant ballads, Geometría Prohibida (Keroxen, 2021) presents itself like a statement from the band, a crystallization of the bands intentions with a concise and precise 26mins of masterfully produced music showcasing the kind of restrain you’d expect from past giants like Joy Division, Neu! or Scott Walker.

The hallmarks of krautrock and shoegazing/dream pop haunt this record like a benevolent force, another unique reference of music made through an insular lens of remoteness that Keroxen drives to showcase to the world.

MORE unobvious Island music to the outer world.
