CURIA II - headlights lph12 Beautiful new hand-numbered edition of 100 copies private press LP in black printed wraparound sleeves from a group that brings together the cream of the Portuguese underground, with both Manuel Mota and Margardia Garcia on electric guitars, David Maranha on organ and Afonso Simoes on drums. This is free music that draws inspiration equally from the gradual projection style of Masayuki Takayanagi’s New Direction Unit, the communal afro-futurism of the Sun Ra Arkestra, St Louis’ Black Artists Group and the AACM big bands, wastoid wah heavy psychedelic freeform and the keyboard and F/X funk swamp of the late Miles Davis groups, Love Cry Want et al. Mota’s recent experiments with wah-wah have launched his solo guitar thought into a whole new rock/jazz zone but until now there has been virtually nada in terms of audio documentation. The pairing with Garcia’s heavy bottom end bowing and sudden sputtering tone explosions is an absolute beauty, with Garcia providing a monstrous backbone from which Mota shoots spurts of quicksilver electricity that explode like fireworks all over Maranha’s gorgeous organ patterns. A fantastic release from a bunch of major thinkers who shoot holes in easy free music strategies. Highly recommended. David Keenan, Volcanic Tongue
Always providing for space for each other while still bringing the heat poignantly, the members of the Curia manage to walk that fine line between under and over playing, with deliberate indulgence, creating a scape as odd and alien that is difficult to box.
With various outstanding personal works, the members of curia, Afonso Simões, David Maranha, Manuel Mota and Margarida Garcia, share a common ground- the lisbon..s underground- but each has a very personal history and their music clearly reflects that - everyone there feels free to play whatever they like but the result has an unique character even being free from style barriers. Together they shaped a space of continuity and at the same time re-write the territory of their approach to music.
Formed in February of 2007, their sound comes through the layering and gathering of each individual's unique personal language. Two releases, namely the eponymous Curia CD on Fire Museum Records and LP Curia II on Headlights.

"Índia: Uma Viagem de Sentidos
Exposição de fotografia de Hugo Lima. Resultado e resumo de várias viagens à Índia, caminhos inimagináveis percorridos, paragens no tempo e no espaço, um despertar de sentidos. O retrato de uma Índia quase ingénua, uma representação de quotidianos de olhares tímidos e sorrisos acanhados. Um convite à viagem."
