EVERLASTING RECORDS

Hiperasia marks the return of one of Spain's most noted producers after achieving international recognition with his first album Alegranza (2007) and his sophomore mega hit Pop Negro (2010). "I started Pop Negro in 2008..... I've even forgotten some of the lyrics! Things have happened to me since that record which have left more of a mark on me than that album..... everything I record gets released, and it's been that way since I was young; I'm lucky of course, but it also enslaves you".

The immediate impression on the listener to Hiperasia is its abrupt, almost violent, enhanced, futuristic sound. ¨I thought of making music that pushes itself. I like music that seems to move inwards, from its sides towards its own centre. As if it were actively trying to become mono but some force, which is usually something prominent like a 808 or a voice, expands to push those sounds sideways¨. Thus from a simple song based around one or two ideas, you will find intrusions - "Tutti frutti", as Pablo explains: "We can throw bombs in, firecrackers - sounds, other songs which poke through for a moment.... whatever you want".

Aaron Thomas has been writing and performing songs now for ten years. Born in Tasmania, he moved to Sydney at age nine with his mother, his twin brother and his older sister to live with his step father, Lonnie Lee. Lonnie was a musician and had numerous number one hits in Australia during the late 50s to the mid 60s. He taught Aaron to play the guitar and introduced him to a world of singing and performance. After high school he took the strange step of moving suddenly to the Ukraine to spend a year eating too much and trying to learn how to box whilst attending visual arts college (he was an inspiring illustrator). He fell in love with the culture, the people and especially the dark old melodies that could be heard in the small villages outside of Kiev. He returned there again some time later as he continued to travel, ending up in Los Angeles where he lived for a while and performed solo shows in some of the singer songwriter venues around Santa Monica. Now living in Madrid, Aaron has finally channelled these experiences and released his debut album entitled "Follow The Elephants", a collection of raw and honest material that speaks of the harshness that comes with being a stranger far from home, of the ups and downs of life in general and the frustration of big cities.
