Produced by Dave Douglas in NYC.

Featuring the acclaimed Bergamot Quartet and Ethan Cohn on double bass, APFUS, VOL. 1 (2026) dwells at the subtle intersection of contemporary chamber music, improvisation, and South American roots music. Recorded live in a single room by engineer Geoff Countryman at The New School in NY, this is the first of two volumes; the second volume, featuring a full band and Dave Douglas on trumpet as a guest artist, will be released in 2027.

Songs from the road

Unterwegs is a German word that means “On the road” and it is the direct result of a journey I started years ago, that took me through different landscapes, from the mountains to the sea, and in which I learned many things. This record portraits the pain but, foremost, the joy of living. It is a humble record with very deep implications.

In 2022, one of the tracks from my work-in-progress La Tierra, una criatura, was included in the ambient music compilation Unyoked presents Lazydaze.001, a collaboration between the Australian label Lazydaze and Unyoked in Australia.

This interdisciplinary project, in which field recordings and poetry are used as a starting point for improvisation and music creation, received the Award for Excellence in Climate, Climate Justice, and Sustainability from the Tishman Environment and Design Center in New York (2021).

“Exilio Transitorio was inspired by a book of poems that my father, Francisco Viñuela, wrote after his exile from Chile during Pinochet's coup d'etat in 1973. The poems written in Spanish and French relate his exile from his country and initiate a humanist and universal reflection on the devastating effects of totalitarian regimes and political wars. Created as a cinematic journey, Exilio Transitorio serves as a soundtrack honoring the book's poetry and message, and continuing the reflection further in the hope those events aren't forgotten and in the hope of a better world."

"The band recorded several awesome versions, but I settled on an usual demo version that I created with my friend Julián Muro while in residency at the Banff Centre (My thanks to the Yolandane Freeze Artists in Music Fund). We layered his vocal in several times on both the melody and counterline, and much later, while we were adding strings to the songs I had them also double the parts. The guitar part I recorded myself while at the beach.”
