J.Zunz
The Old Blue Last, EC2A 3ES , [Venue Details]Obsidian rock is igneous, frequently dark, yet opaque. Hard edged and brittle, it’s often been used both for weaponry and alchemical pursuits.
Therefore when Lorena Quintanilla – the Mexican-based artist also known as J. Zunz – was searching for psychic inspiration for her next musical venture, she need have looked no further. “Once I chose the title, everything I read, saw, listened to, and thought about began to interconnect” she relates. “Obsidian became like a magnetic field.”
“In Mesoamerican cultures, it was used in many different ways – obsidian mirrors, for example, were tools for divination and spiritual vision. For many years, women have also been working with it as a form of healing, which is the part that really drew me in”. Thereafter, Lorena set about creating an album entirely on her own terms, refracting this first spark through a prism of elemental approaches to create ‘Obsidiana’, a richly atmospheric, electronic-driven album replete with sensitivity and visceral intent. Driven by both the ghost and the heart of the machine, ‘Obsidiana’ opens up a portal whereby forbidding drone, ethereal ambience and insistent repetition intertwine elegantly to form a seamless whole.
