- Having been at the forefront of Spain’s experimental music scene since the late 1970s, multi-instrumentalist Suso Saiz formed the pivotal group Orquesta de las Nubes, studio project Música Esporádica, Suspended Memories and Trash of Dreams. Suso’s universe is one that remains in constant mutation and emphasizes time above all else. His radiant drones are a nest of hidden feelings; they glisten with complex emotions and textures, teasing out moods of vulnerability and hope. The most representative figure of Spain’s now cult experimental scene, Suso Saiz remains an exploratory musician in a musical universe that knows no boundaries. His work has been evolving towards the creation of textures, based on processes over acoustic elements and soundscapes. There are no synthesizers or electronic automatisms in his sound. A prolific producer with several acclaimed releases on the Music From Memory label, he has recorded with Spain’s most singular popular musicians as well as with a number of luminary electronic and international artists such as Steve Roach, Jorge Reyes, Salif Keita, Christian Fennesz, Gigi Masin, Suzanne Kraft, Glen Velez, and many others.

- Suzanne Kraft is the moniker of Los Angeles–born musician Diego Herrera, whose work spans dance music, ambient, downtempo pop, and electroacoustic experiments. After establishing himself as a DJ and creative director at Dublab in LA, Herrera produced a string of acclaimed solo releases on Melody As Truth, most notably 2015’s Talk From Home—a watershed album of delicate, contemplative instrumentals that helped define the mid-2010s ambient revival, notably lauded on Resident Advisor’s Top 20 albums list of 2015. Now celebrating its 10th anniversary, Talk From Home is being commemorated with a new anniversary edition of the album alongside three special live performances in Portland, LA, and Philadelphia where Herrera will be performing the album live in its entirety for the first time.
