The rock continues to be a possibility of search and experimentation is an exceptional situation. And, beyond what is expected, accommodating, and limited of what you hear these days-and that is global-there are those spaces where we can surprise us. There are two recent examples. One, local is the new album of Fernando Kabusacki, "6.1. The wonder" (which presents tonight, at 21, in Chacarerean Theatre, Nicaragua 5500). Another, the second album from the Mars Volta "Frances the Mute" (which deserves a separate area).

Guitarist eclectic, heir to the school of Robert Fripp (a perfectionist) and recognized by peers experimenters several points of the world (in Japan, is a musician as recognized as requested), Kabusacki exceeds the molds of rock and pop made on this side of the world; for this reason contributed so much to the music of Maria Gabriela Epumer as Juana Molina, A Shooter Laser or Latin Blue Trance, with Paul Potenzoni (Todos Tus Muertos), among many others.

His proposal, purely instrumental, it is full of coloraturas and is generous in sharing their explorations. And in vivo allows the music to flow and exceed your original schema depending on who is in the front on each occasion. Accompanied by musicians of the first line (Fernando Samalea, Matthias Mango, Fernando Nalé, Sergio Dawi and Mussa Phelps), the music of Kabusacki is not long-winded. It elaborates on the brevity and intensity, and thus weaves together the different mixtures that are expressed without words.

The compositions of "6.1?" have song structure. Fragments concise in which the "singing voice" is represented by the guitar and its universe of sounds, which is poured out on the basis of that may pass through the pop or caribbean rhythms-of-factly. In vivo, these issues take a more raw and spontaneous. But above all it shows the joy of sharing the creative act.

The sound universe of Kabusacki is finely textured, with simplicity and good taste. That's what makes a character unlikely to the local scene, but with an international reputation that makes, for example, not only edit your new album simultaneously in Japan, but in addition there integrates three other ventures albums immediate, in addition to not being able to engage in cycles too extensive in this city for other commitments in the united States or Europe.

Of course, the music of Kabusacki is not the sounding again and again on the radio. However, it is accessible, celebratory and, above all, well-executed. There are only encouraged to transpose this bias that makes the instrumental music in something difficult or unlikely, or any other definition that forces you to go "safe", that is to say: what we want to sell.
