Настоящее имя: Finger Blas
Об исполнителе:
Blas Finger, a trained drummer, nowadays a multi-instrumentalist who uses musical tools as his way of expression and search. His musical path started in 2005-2006, when he became a member of the instrumental rock band Las Cosas and understood that recording albums was the way to go: create, make decisions, leave a record and move forward. This was followed by three studio albums released on CD, one live and a digital EP edition. To edit this material, the band created Prius Discos, a record label that has already released 77 albums of various projects and artists. In 2011 he joined Compañero Asma as a drummer to participate in the albums Mágica Posesión and Templado and became a collaborator and satellite of the band. 2012 he started collecting records (a lifelong passion, in different formats: cassette in his childhood, later cd and vinyl) and DJing. Playing records became a means of survival for him. In 2014 he participated with other DJs in the foundation of Family Affair, a cultural collective for the diffusion of ideas and music, and turned to electronic music as his own language and sound. That same year he composed, together with Pablo Spretz, the music for the short film Viedma. The duo Finger-Spretz would later found a musical project and label called Doble Moral which released a split cassette in 2017. During the period 2016-2018 he concentrated on developing his character as an electronic musician playing in a live format searching for the balance point between his major influences: kraut, ambient and electronic track music. In November 2017 the first solo work of Finger Blas -Infancia tardía- was released by Prius Discos in which he wanted to deepen this hybrid of electronic music and genres such as kraut and even dub. In May 2020 he released his next work, the EP “Cuatro notas para un futuro nuevo”, a work with an intimate tone (produced entirely in the Argentine lockdown as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic) in which confinement, uncertainty, sound experimentation and the search for freedom coexist in an ambiguous way. In November, in the middle of a musical clairvoyance, “Horas doradas” (Golden Hours) appears, his second album of 2020, a strange and painful year for the whole humanity. In 2021 Blas release by himself on Bandcamp his most ambicious work, "La Zona", a techno/electro-oriented 35 mins album.
