Нello All!

Залиты диски Senogul:
(2007)_Senogul
(2009)Concierto_De_EvocacionSonora
(2011)SenogulIII

Залита текущая дискография группы Сеногул - молодой испанской психоделик/прогрессив/зюль/авангард-рок команды.
Группа интересная, самобытная. Испанского в ней мало, за то, например, на их втором альбоме присутствует много восточного/индийского. Вообще, из этих трёх, второй альбом выделяется своим содержанием - он состоит из звуковых картин, по идее - призванных пробуждать воображение, и мантр.
Мне он понравился меньше всех.
Остальные два альбома - в более мейнстримовом ключе. Но (!) в мейнстримово-авангардном! Тут и рок и зюль и барок-рок, множество различных, иногда, весьма экзотичных инструментов. Интересные мелодии и звучание. Описать музыку, конечно, можно, но на это надо потратить время соразмеримое со временем прослушивания каждого альбома. Поэтому, просто слушайте!

Senogul is an instrumental band born in Asturias in 2002, thanks to the meeting of bass player Pablo Canalis, keyboard player Eduardo Garcia Saluena, drummer Alex Valero "Danda" and guitar players Israel Sanchez and Pedro A. Menchaca. Although they had different musical backgrounds (Нeavy Metal, Blues, Folk or Post-rock) they found a common ground related to styles such as progressive rock or jazz fusion, the so-called "Contemporary Instrumental Music".

The initial repertoire of the band was made up basically of symphonic rock covers from the 70s (from bands such as Genesis, King Crimson, Yes, Crucis and ELP) and later they approached other bands more related to fusion (Return To Forever, Airto Moreira, Frank Zappa or Нermeto Pascoal). This led to the recording in 2003-2004 of the Demo CD Cosecha años 70 in "Dos Mundos" studio, headed by Mento Нevia (ex-keyboardist of Spanish progressive band Crack), with Mikhail Goldfarb as the sound engineer.

Since then, Senogul focus in their own compositions and style, based in the instrumental fusion of different musical styles: rock, jazz, blues, baroque music, minimalism, electronic music or flamenco, including such compositions in their set-lists. In 2005 Senogul records and self-produces the mini CD entitled Tránsitos, in which the band included six of those new compositions played live in the studio. Such demo recording was widely spread, not only through several concerts in different concert halls in Asturias (Gijon, Oviedo, Navia) or nacional events (such as Lughnassad Festival, held in Tiermes -Soria- in 2005, together with other important asturian artists such as Dani Garcia de la Cuesta, Skontra or Deua Dubra), but also through internet in specialised national and international websites.

Meanwhile, Senogul kept composing new material showing new influences, with a freer, improvised character, tending to ethnic music and tone percussion. In 2006 the band focused in the recording of their first, self-titled, studio album, with Angel Berdiales as the recording engineer and the collaboration of many renowned asturian musicians (such as multi-instrumentist Guzman Arguello, who has played with Nuberu, Los Locos, Mu, Aculla or Edwin Moses). Such CD has been edited in May 2007 by Mylodon Records, Chilean record label specialised in progressive and avant-garde music.

Senogul, now with Eva Diaz in drums replacing Alex Valero, is currently immersed in the presentation of their new CD in live concerts. The musical proposal of the band is linked in a way to those from asturian bands from the second half of the 70s, such as Crack, Asturcon, Nuberu and Berto Turulla.
