Great mastering and mixing duties, extremely professional and collaborative. One of the best in Barcelona.

Gius really understands what the musician/artist is trying to accomplish. He's himself a very accomplished musician and multi instrumentalist. I highly recommend.

TIXIS 'LA GUAJIRA'
out on Delirics
#mastering
El bateria i productor Andreu Tixis Bonshoms - exmembre de bandes com LeJournal o duvium - s’estrena sota el nom de Tixis amb un primer curta durada: La Guajira (Delirics, 2020). En el disc, el músic centra la mirada en Amèrica Llatina i reflexiona a través de quatre cançons sobre els conflictes i les relacions de poder que han acompanyat el continent al llarg dels segles. Sobretot, l’impacte que hi té l’explotació de recursos naturals com el carbó a llocs com La Guajira colombiana -en concret, amb la carbonífera del Cerrejón-.Tot plegat, surt de la influència dels seus viatges a Llatinoamèrica, que fusionat amb una electrònica melòdica, a l’estil de Bonobo o Nicola Cruz, creen un paisatge sonor i polític singular.El disc, a més, comptarà amb col·laboracions d’artistes com Tarta Relena i The Bird Yellow.”.TIXIS page @ DeliricsTIXIS single en Enderrock
Opera23
Signs IV, Circle Quartet
#recording #mixing #mastering
Opera23 presents his composition "Circle Quartet", a string quartet composed by the Italian musician as a conclusion of the EP series "Signs".Finally this series of EP's is over. After the experimental research, the rhythmic study, the harmonic stasis, I arrived at the composition of a string quartet, composed between 2019 and 2021. The influences, aware and unaware of this work, pass from the romantic tradition to the avant-garde of the Russian and French twentieth century’s composers. Indeed, the "Circle quartet" is a composition that does not pretend to be innovative, absolutely not. I have never believed in conscious innovation. More than looking ahead, I wanted to observe my own path. The whole series of “Signs” is presented as an introspective, intimate work. I sat down, and I just manipulated the material that I myself had left on my desk.Musicians

THE NEW NEW NORMAL
#mixing #mastering
"The New New Normal" is more than a mere post-pandemic album.Written almost entirely in a seven-day retreat in a flat in Berlin-Wedding during the month of July 2020, recorded at the locally popular Famous Gold Watch studios and produced by the safe hands and skills of Paolo Licari, "The New New Normal" is the brainchild of an artist after being released from the Covid-related "house arrests" of 2020. Full of references to Berlin and the contradictions of our modern society, this album goes into a more indie rock direction than usual, even reaching dance music directions in tunes such as "Torschlusspanik", the first one featuring Angelo partly singing in German language. It is not meant as an album to chill on, but instead as an energetic, yet considerate and thoughtful, piece of art as a whole.All songs by Angelo Romano.
Produced by Paolo Licari.
Recorded in 2020 in The Famous Gold Watch, Berlin.
Mixed and mastered by Giuliano Gius Cobelli, TAAK Studio, Barcelona."Chain-Smoking Lady" recorded at Locus Studio, L'Hospitalet & Akrasonic, Barcelona.Featuring:
- Angelo Romano: vocals, guitars, bass guitar, synths, piano, etc.
- Paolo Licari: backing vocals, guitars, bass guitar, synths, etc.

Lemonille · NEROLI
#mixing #mastering
El artista italiano Nicola Masseria dio su salto definitivo hace unos años con “Synopsis” y “When I Come Back”, un par de temas cargados de sintetizadores y percusión, no aptos para oídos trascendentales, que ya son marca de la casa. Después vino la rompedora “Yerso”, la canción que abriría su álbum debut con una melodía al estilo Depeche Mode, y ya después del segundo single, “Neon Breathing”, Nicola deja entrever en temas como “Green Verses” cuál es otra de sus bandas de cabecera, un tema que recuerda a los primeros años The Cure. Amaga con algo trascendental en la estupenda “In The Absence”, pero todo se resume en cargar las atmósferas para hacer que la canción pueda explosionar con un sintetizador. Sí, de nuevo un sintetizador porque es lo que sin duda reina en el disco de Lemonille, sintetizadores y melodías pegadizos, como el de la inocente “The Dream”.>ENLACES AQUI<

Opera23 'SIGNS III, SQR'
Out on Wic Recordings
#mixing #mastering
"This is the third of four chapters that the Italian composer, based in Barcelona, offers us as a progressive path of writing and listening.Each chapter investigates the relationship between gesture and sound and how the creative instinct predominates in the early stages, to be progressively overwhelmed by rationalization. In this pyramid-like path, Opera23 chooses to start releasing the third stage, the square, which represents, in the intentions, the best compromise in the search for balance.The harmony is not complex, the rhythm is recognizable and is structured on understandable repetitions, the few melodic lines can be memorized. Using these elements, the aim was to create complex and related stresses. The symmetrical perception of the square must be perceived but not understood, the compositional sense is inspired by completeness and not by the closed form.The EP consists of three songs, one of which, Apolo 303, is a remix of a composition by a young and very good producer, Crunkid. The idea of adding a remix comes from the desire to filter, through a rational subtraction, the strong impact, the freshness and the originality that distinguishes the style of Crunkid. The result does not claim to be a modification of the original piece, on the contrary, it is almost an answer."SIGNS" is a "shameless" attempt to directly involve the listener in the creative process, so that an ideal dialogue between action and reaction can be created. After the constant repetitions of "Internal With Figures, Lights. And Shadows", his debut album, Opera23 continues his research path by proposing with this EP a piece of a construction from whose total architecture the artist's complete compositional thought can emerge, devoid of any filter.SIGNS III, SQR has been composed and recorded by Opera23 (Barcelona, 2020) mix and mastering by Giuliano Cobelli (Taak Studio, Barcelona)"LISTEN ON BANDCAMPLISTEN ON SPOTIFYLISTEN ON YOUTUBE

Desbocadamente hipnóticos, lisérgicos y, sobre todo, diferentes.Pacosan se entregan ahora por completo con su primer disco largo, “My High”, reivindicándose como una de las bandas más eclécticas, versátiles y sugestivas del panorama independiente nacional. “My high” hipnotiza desde la primera escucha con su mezcla narcótica de psicodelia lo-fi y electrónica, que va de Gary Numan a Animal Collective pasando por Caribou -no es casualidad que el propio John Schmersal mezclara su anterior EP. Un intenso viaje rico en texturas sónicas, transitando por paisajes áridos que se abren hacia la luz más estroboscópica. Temas como “She’s the one”, “Burn America” o la inicial “Jesus” lo corroboran a golpe de intensidad y vocoder.Originarios del siempre prolífico Garraf y curtidos en bandas como El Petit de Cal Eril, The Lions Constellation, Ly o Shorebreak; David Paco, Perico Massana y Sergi Marcet dan con este disco un gran salto, contando también en directo con la colaboración de Juan Manuel Celorio (miembro fundador de Tokio Sex Destruction).A pesar de la juventud del proyecto, en los dos últimos años han mantenido una actividad frenética que los ha llevado a pasear su enérgico directo con regularidad por escenarios y festivales, compartiendo gira con bandas internacionales como The Dodos, Glass Animals, Holy Fuck o los míticos Silver Apples. Con su último EP, "Space's Confes", llamaron la atención de la escena alternativa y abrieron las expectativas ante la publicación de un primer largo que ahora llega por fin, despertando el interés de un público ávido de nuevas propuestas.Produced by Pacosan and Giuliano Gius Cobelli.
