This 20 minute piece is the result of a collaboration between Miguel Angel Tolosa (ubeboet), Juan Jose Calarco and Pablo Reche. 'Biesi' is Russian for 'demons' and sets the scene for an eerie journey through a soundscape packed with spectres and apparitions. The composition creates the feeling of unseen presences, evokes fog on still waters and whispers at the listener the half words of sleepwalkers. 'Biesi' contains haunted environmental recordings, beguiling undercurrents and otherworldly, narcoacoustic murmurs. By moving away from the obvious Western, Christian interpretation of the idea of demons, Tolosa, Calarco and Reche avoid any simplistic moral posturing between good and evil and pursue older, richer mythologies. One could draw parallels with Kiyoshi Kurosawa and Hideo Nakata and their explorations of so called 'ambient horror'. In 'Biesi' ghosts, demons and the uncanny are very much part of life itself and the borders between the afterlife and the one which we inhabit are easily crossed, and forever blurred.
