Biography of Murcof

Murcof's breakthrough album, Martes (Tuesday), was released on the Mexican label Static Discos in February 2002. It drew on the works of Arvo Pärt, Henryck Górecki, and Giya Kancheli, and contained samples from Arvo Pärt's Sarah Was Ninety Years Old, Giya Kancheli's Vom Winde Beweint, Night Prayers, Morton Feldman's String And Piano Quintet and David Martinez's Musica Para El Silencio stretched and distorted over delicate beats. The album was picked up and released by the UK imprint Leaf Records in May of the same year after a chance meeting with Tony Morley at a Leaf party in Barcelona around the time of Sonar 2001 when he was there to perform with NorTec Collective. In 2002-3 Corona played shows all over Europe and North America, including the Mutek and Sonar festivals.

Murcof has since collaborated with a number of artists from different fields, particularly contemporary classical, and has been commissioned to remix both Kronos Quartet and Miles Davis as well as Mexican artist Florencia Ruiz. He has performed with video artist Saul Saguatt at the Imax theatre La Geode. Paris, with musicians Erick Truffaz and Talvin Singh at the Montreaux Jazz festival.

Corona has also worked piano virtuoso Francesco Tristano, performing at the 2007 Sónar festival, and on Tristano's latest album Not For Piano. Francesco Tristano is one of classical music's rising stars. The album was produced and mastered by Murcof. Corona has also scored three feature films, including 2007's La Sangre Iluminada (Enlightened Blood), with further soundtrack work in the pipeline; his music has been used in countless film, TV and dance productions worldwide, and he picked up a Qwartz Music Award in 2006.

Comment: If you are a fan of minimal glitchy ambient stuff, then this is for you. It has superb sounds which are very evocative and peaceful, similar to Trentemoller. It's a little dated but still good. Check out some of the other artists residing on the leaf label. enjoy.
