Duo Juum

Juum Duet, integrated by Hugo Solís and Gabriela Villa, is a free electroacoustic improvisation ensemble created at the beginning of year 2006. Both musicians, native Mexicans, share interdisciplinary interests and education which include music, music technology, digital media and speech.

Juum Duet is born as a response to the intention of developing ideas parting from music improvisation and digital means determined to convene a listening willing to deautomate itself. The possibility of combining the expressivity of an acoustic voice with technologies as malleable as the digital medium results into an alternate sonority.

From an aesthetic apparatus deprived of the current rules and apart from the mass-media music -the act of freely improvising through some sort of struggling with the aesthetic apparatus itself-, Juum Duet offers the possibility of going beyond the boundaries maintaining itself within a border which opens a window to its two integrand's reality.
