About

English:
David Jornet is a Spanish musician (Barcelona, 1971) who started his musical career in the middle of the 80s. His passion for electronics has brought him to play in a wide range of bands like Frame, Klockwork, Asphalt!, Tannhauser, Anorak…, until he decided to found his personal solo project six years ago. Strange2 is a compilation of the musical snippets that made David’s memory up; his particular view of the music he has been listening to for years and has deeply touched his most intimate feelings –from Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk or Vangelis to Technopop and the most experimental electronica-, updated to our time and keeping an obvious vintage taste. Strange2 wants to show a universal world of sounds in which the creative intensity of the IDM and the ambient-electronica music are mixed with complex atmospheres and cyclical piano sequences that give a particular feeling of dark soundtrack to the project. This is a feature that David tries to show in his flexible and intense live sets –sometimes just pure electronica sounds (with some industrial touch), some others sounding much more acoustic (drummer playing live)- surrounded by an atmosphere and progressive tempo that easily catches the audience. Strange2 produces an old-to-present-time images evoking music of subjective situations and circumstances, of blue hypnotic melodies that melt into worrying even unpleasant landscapes.

Español:
Strange2 es el proyecto de David Jornet (1971), un artista barcelonés cuya trayectoria musical se inicia ya a mediados de la década de 1980. Su pasión, básicamente, por la música electrónica le lleva a fundar y formar parte de varias bandas (Frame, Klockwork, Asphalt!, Los Perlas, Tannhauser, Anorak –estas dos últimas totalmente activas), hasta que decide crear su ilusión musical propia. Strange2 pretende ser una colección de retazos musicales, la que David ha guardado en su memoria; su visión, un resumen muy particular de toda la música que más cosas ha aportado a su vida –de Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk y Vangelis, al tecnopop y la electrónica más experimental. Strange2 es una amalgama de todas esas influencias, interpretada con un sonido actualizado en el que se refleja un universo sonoro donde la intensidad creativa propia de la IDM y el ambient-electrónica más íntimo, se mezclan con complejas atmósferas y secuencias cíclicas de piano que conceden al proyecto, finalmente, un indiscutible aire de banda sonora de tintes oscuros. Sus directos, adaptables e intensos, son unas veces puramente electrónicos -con guiños al industrial-, y otras con toques más acústicos (batería e instrumentación), pero siempre con un tempo progresivo y una atmósfera que atrapa al oyente. Strange2 crea una música evocadora de imágenes de tiempos pasados y actuales, de situaciones y de circunstancias subjetivas; de melodías tristes e hipnóticas que se funden en paisajes un tanto inquietantes y desapacibles.
