Live In San Francisco
The discography of senor Lopez is an extensive one, but only a few deal with live recordings. The only one that springs to mind is his Live In 'S-Hertogenbosch on Bottrop-boy, which came, just like this new live recording, with a blindfold (which he insists that the audience should wear). Francisco Lopez live is something different than Francisco Lopez studio. In the latter he carefully constructs pieces of silent music, almost inaudible, that only start to make sense if the listener takes over control by adjusting volume, bass, mid and treble. The listener doesn't have this control in the live situation and here Lopez goes for the all out attack on the listener, who, with his blindfold, can do nothing else than sit back and listen. This CD has two pieces (rather unusual for Lopez), both recorded in San Francisco. The first one is from 2000 and starts right away with an oppressive wall of sound, until things collapse with great dramatic care. From there the proceedings start all over again, building up yet again another dramatic crescendo. When it stops, the sounds is literally sucked away. The second track is a different one. Much less present in the space, this is a softer piece, although it doesn't come anywhere near his studio CDs. Here too it can be noted that there is quite a dramatic built, with abrupt changes. Most likely this is built from field recordings made in the jungle, but with an undefinable background drone being present. Two entirely different performances, but both bear the signature of Lopez. And it's great stuff. (Frans de Waard)
