For specific gravity and also by timing, the Gepe (Daniel Rivera, 29 years) is one of the key male voices of his generation. Something easily verifiable, or flip: just heard his recent Audiovison , presented last night and still shows today at midnight Dada Space (Borges 1655), or its former Gepinto and Hungary, one traditional, the other closer to pop mail. In particular, Gepe ranks among the authors of the new generation of elementary songs, which fit from the Uruguayan Franny Glass to Lisandro Aristimuño: aesthetes of the songs are "base", beautiful in (and by) its minimalism almost ornamental surface, but which are densified to give due attention. "There is a temporary situation that leads people to focus on this type of music: the processes occurring in the region, social, political and cultural, have returned to bring the music of Eduardo Mateo, Violeta Parra and Victor Jara. In parallel, there has been the emergence of many young artists working with sound from the same privacy, but with other topics and current forms. "
paradigmatic One of his songs (in fact it feels like ' The most successful "of which he composed) is" friendly neighbors ", the opening of the last album: it is a more alert to dreamy pop, minimalism morning a debtor rather than a night vigil. In any case, the oneiric it is not their musical embellishment, but its proposal. "Many friends, some neighbors, it is your desire. The one with all: to subvert this logic neighboring nearby, a top or side by side in a building or neighborhood, and eventual reunion of friends. In it, a Gepe had enough of the clapping and hooting, voice and strings to apply a communal concept, but also endorsed by the irresistible "12 ore" or the epic "Victory Rome."
"Every record is a test, I'm no good to find something very specific or very close to a concept," admits Gepe, designer also received, following the race "to have a tool of interpretation" rather than a source of income. "Somehow I feel that songs design: choose your items, made a composition with them in seeking to shape an idea. I've only recorded discs when I felt I had an idea that was passed or not the previous. Or at least more mature. "
