 Opinions and other informations:

    

An experimental spanish quartet of guitars, violin, clarinet and drums. They play in a high energy electronic jazz with strong RIO influences.


Macromassa was a group with very radical, provocative and experimental music, founded in 1976 by Victor Nubla, Joan Crek, Albert Giménez and Michel Huygen. The proposal consisted of experimentations and electronic modifications of the sounds of wind instruments and voices through a very peculiar lecture of rock, jazz, industrial, noise and minimalism. The dilated carreer of Macromassa reaches 1997 with the release of their last record, "Puerta Heliogábal". They have more than 40 recordings and 100 concerts in 21 years of work. Their fist concert in the Magic hall in Barcelona, September 1976 had 300 people at the beginning and just 2 at the end was recorded as "Darlia Microtónica". (Juan Mellado)
