Being Berber y su historia es algo complicado que tan solo empezar en Noviembre 2008, sus colaboradores han cambiado varios veces en estos últimos meses entre su estancia en California y ahora en Madrid pero su lienzo siempre ha sido igual: crear melodías y ritmos que puedan llevar a cada oyente en una peregrinación individual y comunitaria, a descubrir un poco mas de si mismo/ma y a los que andan a su lado. Hace unos años que su creador empezó a cambiar el chip, de tocar en grupos de jazz/funk con sus baquetas a empezar a usar el piano y la voz como nuevas expresiones de su ser. Being Berber tiene raíces indie en el sentido literal como musical y tiene raíces electrónicas cuya influencia viene de su juventud. Mis estimados amigos y amigas, bienvenidos y espero que nuestro peregrinación ayude la vuestra. Abrochen el cinturón y a ver donde nos lleva esta conversación.
"Being Berber" has recently been formed by Chris, Fran, and Daniel and still in the making. Hopefully in the near future it will give fruition to some dominant music but for now just a little bit about the creator.... having played drums in other bands over the years mostly being of jazz orientation, I found it time to move on to another chapter....I have always had this desire to create my own stuff and to find a feel that fits me as a musician....I will always consider myself a drummer but for the time being the voice and piano have become my new mediums of expressing this journey.... buckle up and lets see where it goes.
