Javier Segura, a cult composer and sound engineer from the Canary Islands whose “Malagueñas 2” sounds like nothing else of the time and space it was created. Its dramatic, emotional drones sound like something Jonny Greenwood might have cribbed during Radiohead’s Kid
A sessions alongside that famous sample of Paul Lansky’s “Mild Und Leise” in “Idioteque.”
Written by Miles Bowe
Javier Segura is one of those quintessentially isolationist figures with pronounced aversion to any semblance of organized art industry marketplace. As a consequence his compact music catalogue stayed on the margins even within the context of already pretty localized experimental scene of the late 1980s Spain. His aesthetic sits somewhere at the intersection of instrumental, ambient-leaning side of early 4AD catalogue, humid exotism of Four World records, atmospheric post industrial experimentalism of late SPK (circa Zamia Lehmanni, Digitalis Ambigua) and as precursor to guitar-led Neo-psychedelia of Roy Montgomery.
Despite being produced with the spartan setup of guitar, synth, rhythm boxes, and a few effects pedals, Segura’s music manages to channel boundless scale, as if being place into vast aural landscape. Wallpaper music this is not.
