mp3: NUURO edison melodies (from ‘in transit’)
when his debut album ‘all clear’ dropped late last year, names such as khonnor, the postal service and ben gibbard (death cab for cutie) were thrown in young alex ghersi’s direction. how do you deal with comparisons such as that when you’re a mighty sixteen years old? and if ghersi is indeed making music worthy of such bedfellows, then the question remains – where to from here?
after spending his teens working primarily in the field of graphic art, nuuro released ‘all clear’ via two eclectic labels: soundsister – home to other international electronica such as russia’s roman revitsky and mexico’s seeker who are lovers – and poni republic, a “free-music” netlabel who also play perfect host to the fluro-electro trio todosantos, also from caracas.
you can download nuuro’s 2005 ‘in transit’ ep here (sample the track ‘edison melodies’ above, featuring a sample from jose gonzales’ ‘remain’) and buy ‘all clear’ at darla and soundsister.
the track ‘alone but’ comes from onhait.us and is featured as part of an interview nuuro, which you can read here.
