Enfermedad Venérea mid-1980s cassette by El Habitante

  A few days ago, my friend Alex Carretero (Insane Muzak, editor of the compilation Golpea tu cerebro) sent me files of a rare cassette by my project EL HABITANTE ("The Inhabitant"), called "Enfermedad Venérea" ("Venereal Disease"). I knew the existence of this cassette, of course, but I did not remember its sound at all.

  Listening to these sounds has been a pleasant surprise, not because I consider them to be great, but because memories of those recordings have been revived. It is lo-fi industrial noise. How could I have believed that I was a great and unique artist, making these terrible live recordings using a Teisco 60F synthesizer, a Casio, manipulation of cassettes and voice?! All recorded almost live on a cassette recorder (I remember Sanyo brand) that by that time was old and in poor condition. I could not specify the date of the cassette edition, but I remember starting to record the sounds in the summer of 1985. Listening to the sounds I can still feel that adolescent anguish.

    coffee drinker


    In 1986, at the age of 16, I released Exenple,
    ​my first cassette of industrial music,  which I recorded with my 13-year-old brother under the name Brigada Nadie.

    I was a member of the futurist multidisciplinary group Equipo Estético Étika Makinal (or 3EM), and Spanish experimental noise band I.Q.C.M.

    Over the years I have created many solo and collaborative audio works.
    ​
    ​In recent years I have turned my attention more toward visual and mail art. I like to create collages and rubber stamp art.
