about

Doce Fuegos es el proyecto de Miguel Palou, músico vinculado al círculo de la banda sevillana PYLAR, en el que explora la capacidad y la creatividad narrativa de la música a través de la improvisación, valiéndose de violín, mandolina y percusiones. Su particular visión se inspira en el darkwave, la música antigua y folklórica, el post-rock experimental o el metal extremo atmosférico.

Tras El Templo de las Cuevas (Sentencia Records, 2021), Doce Fuegos está de vuelta con Vita Brevis, un ensayo sonoro en torno a la vida, la muerte y el amor. El disco propone un viaje introspectivo con una rica e inspirada diversidad tímbrica y musical, generada a partir de diferentes improvisaciones, subvirtiendo la simbología de la vanitas y el memento mori. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Doce Fuegos is a one-man band formed by Miguel Palou, musician linked with the cryptic Psych-doom band PYLAR, in which he explores the narrative creativity of music through improvisation as playing exclusively violins, mandolins and percussions. His unique musical vision is inspired by a wide variety of styles: from darkwave to ancient and folk music, including experimental post-rock and atmospheric extreme metal.

After El Templo de las Cuevas (Sentencia Records, 2021), Doce Fuegos is back with Vita Brevis (SR-016), a sound essay about life, death and love. This album proposes an introspective trip immersed in a rich and inspiring variety of music improvisations and timbres, subverting the symbology of vanitas and memento mori.

Energy time maddafakkas! This is hard hitting free jazz for the revolution. Listening to this you could believe it might actually happen! Anyone who thinks Jazz is for old folks should give this a spin. It couldn’t be more contemporary to my ears. Crinklechips
