On 30 October, the Valladolid Arts Laboratory (LAVA) will host a performance by Fantasma Sur, a collective formed by Alondra Bentley, Isaki Lacuesta, Ylia and Albert Coma.
Fantasma Sur points towards a parallel reality where all genres can intersect (k-punk, ghost stories, spoken word, vampire love letters), a house haunted by spectres free from past lives. As the group points out: ‘It all started one day when we started talking about Mark Fisher...’. Alondra Bentley's voice and melodies merge with Ylia's electronic textures and rhythms. This unexpected encounter gives rise to atmospheric and spectral music, songs about ghosts written with filmmaker Isaki Lacuesta, who, together with visual artist Albert Coma, is responsible for the film projections that interact live with the music.
Songs that float on ambient tracks, pixelated limbos, echoes of fantasy films and sonic journeys through time...
