In the realm of acousmatic music, the boundaries of sonic exploration are constantly pushed, and "Unevenness, 2015" stands as a composition that delves into the concept of unevenness. Created by Da Mata Paquete, also known as Hugo Paquete, this acousmatic multichannel composition weaves a tapestry of dynamic articulations using different sound elements. By juxtaposing, fragmenting, and texturing these elements, the composition brings to light the significance of minimal sonic components that challenge the system's reproductive capabilities. Through a masterful combination of field recordings and digital granular signal processing, "Unevenness" generates a sonic immanence that immerses listeners in a world of sonic disturbance. This composition unravels the unique techniques and philosophical approach to reality as a dynamic vibration camp of intangible constituents.
