Sounds from underground/File N°055

a kind of very interesting record from <<Aux Luna>>, surely for the story of that's behind, quoting the artist's words: "(...) I found a large cardboard box that seemed to have no connection with my family. Amongst innumerable ephemara concerning the supernatural (books, magazines and so on) was some obscure brand of cassette tape with the single word “Hannah” written on them. The cassettes had music on them but they were not pre-recorded"  
I invite you to discover the rest. really haunting

 0. name of the band
Aux Luna
1. where are you from?
England
2. what kind of instruments/equipment you use? do you use some particular record technique? which is your method of composition?
I found an old box in my parents' attic which contained some old cassettes of someone playing a Spanish guitar. Using Logic I made loops out of the recordings and added other found sounds from old television and radio programmes. Each album is based on a theme. The first release is based around poltergeists because in the box there were a lot of magazines and books about strange and supernatural phenomena.

3. what do you think about the music context nowadays and how you place yourself in? do you feel a part of any scene?
There seems no cutting edge to music nowadays. Everything seems very derivative. I place my own work in 'hauntronica' - deliberately vintage-sounding work held together with drum machines and old analogue synthesizers.
4. do you think that nowadays has still sense talking about "underground"?
The "undeground" scene is now over-ground in that it is easier to find via blogs like yours. Most music I buy is by un-signed artists doing interesting things in their bedrooms.
5. do you play live? how public react to your music?
I do not perform live. My music is produced and designed to be listened to through headphones.
6. Genesis P-Orridge said "Our records were documents of attitudes and experiences and observations by us and other determinedly individual outsiders. Fashion was an enemy, style irrelevant.". What do your records represent to you?
My music is always backed up and enhanced by graphic artefacts. The 'look' of my music is as important as the sound. Having no 'style' or 'look' for your music becomes it's style and look. Leaving music on Soundcloud with the generic graphics in the background is still a statement about your music. Even a blank web page playing music says something about the musicians' intention.
