MounQup

Camille Hedouin

Fondo de Vila

Camille Hédouin aka MounQup is a sound artisan. Born in France, but an adopted Galician, she has been using her voice to play in jazz, electronic and folk bands since the age of 15. It was in Galicia where she started to experiment with loops and samplers to become the artist she is today. Her creations are collages of textures, shapes and colours that result in Mounqup's sonic landscapes. She composes in the complete solitude of her home in the middle of the mountains in A Bola (Celanova), among her family and experimenting with materials that she comes across in her surroundings. However, all makes sense in the live shows. From a cold and arid wasteland, sonic jungles are created adding multiple elelements that flow into a sensorial catharsis. Few artists represent so well the mixture of cultural heritages, and the commitment to them through influences that dwell from African beats to the boldest Nordic experimentation. Her second album "Castro Verdi" will be released in May 2018. A turn of the screw to the rural electronic sound, fully self produced and self managed by the couple MOUNQUP/MOLHO.
