name of the band
Anajunno

where are you from?

We are from Santa Fe, Argentina

what kind of instruments/equipment you use? do you use some particular record technique? which is your method of composition?We are using acoustic and VSTI drums, electric guitars and bass with a lot of pedals and synths. Voices are always processed too. It’s part of the genre aesthetic. Both albums were recorded at our Home Studio where we spent a lot of time working in details. We think that details are the most important part of an album, because that’s the sort of things that’ll make it something special or one of a kind. 

The composition method is just playing, recording and then listening which of those ideas could became songs and combine with others ideas and then be part of something bigger like an album as ‘fuegoinvierno’.  

what is your relationship with media and mediatic culture?

We’re absolutely on it. It’s the source of new sounds, bands and inspiration for us. That’s how we’ve met new bands that now share stage with them or how our music could be listened and shared by other people all over the world. That’s how new opportunities are made nowadays and it’s surprising. 

what do you think about the form of album? Is it still valid or the digital era somehow cancelled the necessity of the specific form - like Lp or Ep?
We have a lot of new music around everyday. It’s hard to reach the public with a Long Play because most of the people just listen 1 or 2 songs and that’s it. But it depends about what you want for your music because it will be on the internet forever. However this last release we’ve recorded made us realize how hard it is to make this kind of music and to repair on the many details we want. It’s a fussy job but it’s dazzling when we listen the results.
where usually you find/hear new music?
We find new interesting things in the Internet. Usually we use Bandcamp, Spotify and Youtube or Facebook and Instagram to catch up. But certainly live shows are also great opportunities to meet new bands. It’s like a powerful feeling when you listen to someone playing in front of your eyes and carries you to another dimension. 
what do you think about the music context nowadays and how you place yourself in? do you feel a part of any scene?
We think that here in Argentina being musician it’s a bit complicated nowadays so we’ve got to make connection with other bands to keep up doing things in our city. Sharing with others is one of the kind of things that makes the music happen. So this year we decided to become part of a label called Repelente discos which goes on that same direction.
