Los invito a escuchar DESPIERTA ALAS, una composicion en forma de suite, que deja entrever mi gran pasión tocando la batería, las congas, los timbales y todos los otros instrumentos de apoyo que se fueron sumando, con algunos momentos supremos o deliciosos a cargo de mis queridos y admirados Leandro Saint-Hill Montejo en solos de saxos soprano y tenor y Guillermo Marigliano con un solo de guitarra. Gustar por lo que uno hace suele ser complicado. No haría música ni escribiría palabra alguna para personas que no pudieran darme una cantidad de tiempo y una calidad de atención comparable a las que yo les doy. No obstante, aunque no te den pelota por no estar en la frecuencia de “velocidad” sensacionalista de los medios, uno sigue mostrando la obra de lo que va quedando por el camino, que es lo que más me intriga y me emociona a pesar de los años que no mienten. Es obvio que mi dialéctica filosófica-musical no es para convencer sino para encantar. Gracias por apreciar mi trabajo.

ARTIST PROFILE

Daniel Irigoyen is an Argentine multi-instrumentalist musician, writer, singer and composer residing in Germany. Among the most important milestones of his European career are his participation as a member of jazz-rock bands, salsa groups, fusion, Latin-jazz, accompanying singers on intercontinental tours and finally leading his own projects.

It is difficult to categorize this multi-talent into a single category. In addition to the versatile singer who is, composer, arranger, producer and studious performer of various instruments: drums, congas, timbales, keyboards and guitar, is an all-terrain testamentary thinker whose texts reflect the items of a universal literature related to the eternal truths. In short Daniel Irigoyen is an insatiable musician and contestatario poet, whose creativity and hopes of change in the human species knows no limits.

As a singer-songwriter, in his texts he has been concerned to highlight the arrogance and hypocrisy of mercantilist society, not as a political protest, but as a poetic message of what he has in common with other men, what men would all sing if they had a poet inside.

Daniel was born in Buenos Aires where he started his musical carer as drummer, percussionist, and singer/songwriter at the end of the sixties. At that time he was one of the pioneers of "Rock Nacional", the first rock music movement worldwide using Spanish lyrics. He finally flew the military dictatorship of his country; travelling the world before settling down in Hamburg. The most important and impulse-setting element in his way of singing is rhythm. His musical repertoire extends from "Argentinian Rock", Funk, Jazz to Ethno and Latin-Fusion.

" The "Total Art" is what Irigoyen has always pursued as a musician and as a person. Attracted by "mystical" questions rather than philosophical ones, he conceives the divinity as the unmoved motor of the universe and the final cause of all things.

Daniel has played, recorded or shared the stage, among others with:

Gwen McCrae (Live), Hugo Fattoruso (Live - La Cueva de Rivadavia - Studio), Roberto Sánchez - Sandro (Live - La Cueva de Rivadavia), Billy Bond (Live - La Cueva de Rivadavia), Audrey Motaung (Studio: André Rebstock), Thomas Anders (Live), Otmaro Ruiz (Studio), Joe Bataan (Live), Quique Sinesi (Studio), Leandro Saint Hill Montejo (Live/Studio), Omar Rodriguez Calvo (Live/Studio), Dom Um Romao (Live), Jorjao Barretto (Live), Teo Lima (Live), Sizao Machado (Live), Victor Biglione (Live), Alex Acuña (Live WorkShop / Studio), Ismael Ivo (Live), Marianne Rosenberg (Live), Wolf Biermann (Studio), Ann Sexton (Live), Gloria Scott (Live), The Trammps (Live), The Supremes (Live), Leon Ware (Live), Roachford (Live), Max Mutzke (Live), Omar (Live), Steve Winwood (Support-LatinCrossings)

PERFIL DEL ARTISTA

Daniel Irigoyen es un músico multiinstrumentista, escritor, cantante y compositor argentino residente en Alemania. Entre los hitos más importantes de su carrera europea se encuentran su participación como integrante de bandas de jazz-rock, grupos de salsa, fusión, latin-jazz, acompañando a cantantes en giras intercontinentales y finalmente liderando sus propios proyectos.

Es difícil categorizar este multi-talento en una sola categoría. Además del polifacético cantor que es, compositor, arreglista, productor y estudioso ejecutante de diversos instrumentos: batería, congas, timbales, teclados y guitarra, es un todoterreno pensador testamentario cuyos textos reflejan los ítems de una literatura universal relacionada con las verdades eternas. En definitiva Daniel Irigoyen es un poeta contestatario y músico insaciable, cuya creatividad y esperanzas de cambio en la especie humana no conoce límites.

Como cantautor, en sus textos se ha preocupado por resaltar la soberbia y la hipocresía de la sociedad mercantilista, no como protesta política, sino como mensaje poético de lo que tiene de común con los demás hombres, lo que los hombres todos cantarían si tuvieran un poeta dentro.

Daniel nació en Buenos Aires donde inició su carrera musical como baterista, percusionista y cantautor a fines de la década del sesenta. En ese momento fue uno de los pioneros del "Rock Nacional", el primer movimiento de música rock a nivel mundial con letras en español. Exiliándose finalmente de la dictadura militar de su país; viajando por el mundo antes de establecerse en Hamburgo. El elemento más importante y generador de impulsos en su forma de cantar es el ritmo. Su repertorio musical se extiende desde el "rock argentino", el funk, el jazz hasta el etno y la fusión latina. El "Arte Total" es lo que Irigoyen ha perseguido siempre como músico y como persona. Atraído por cuestiones "místicas" más que filosóficas, concibe a la divinidad como el motor inmóvil del universo y la causa final de todas las cosas.

NEW ALBUM

“Toda la energía y emocionalidad invertida en lo estético, me ha hecho entender que no es la estética lo que importa siempre en música sino la actitud interior. Aunque no soy yo, sino mi espíritu quien piensa, ejecuta, recuerda o descubre. Lo que hago continúa siendo una coartada con lo que intento justificar mis propios límites como músico y “profeta solitario”, si es que se puede llamar así a lo que hoy significa ser un “artista-creador” que se esfuerza por convertirse en ejemplo sobre lo que predica, no tanto por tener ideas armónicas, rítmicas, melódicas, literarias-filosóficas fuera de lo común, sino por estar poseído por la idea “esencial” de volver a decir lo que todavía no se ha dicho bastante para que haya paz y liberación amorosa en la psique de los humanos. ” - D.I.

DANIEL SAYS: The immemorial voice of passions, delusions, desires, fears, gods and devils, obsessions and distractions, the voice of all the powers that inhabit us and throw us out of ourselves, all that is reflected in the music of what is given to me.

I come from Argentina, which is a country far away in space, but very close to the European tradition and the emotional culture of Latin Americans. In my case, without serious problems of nationalist identity that make me see my reality as separate from the world.

Thanks to the Angel I make music and write analogies to wake myself up. Since my virginal arrival in the big city, when The Beatles were already playing "A Hard Day's Night”, the adventure of creating music and writing utopias has been repeated to me for more than fifty years, which has helped me in body and soul to pass the years without the need to destroy myself for the Truth, if this word has any meaning when speaking of men and their changing nature in the masquerade ball of existence.

Faced with the enigma of the meaning of life, I am incapable of wisdom, however, I have a great desire for wisdom, because going grope like a blind man is very promising. The search itself is always the find. It can't fail. The fragile, the precarious, the merciless, the collapsing, is what most arouses my interest when it comes to positioning myself. Everything I preach in my music is an authentic cure for my own use, a way to protect myself from the arbitrary and the fatal where the false triumphs. Hence, publishing my rhythmic, harmonic, melodic and thought obsessions is an extraordinary relief for my ego and spirit.

Overwhelmed by the contradictions of the system, to create today is to create dangerously. In my case, the risk of a TRANSFIGURATION that leads to a society reconciled with the BEING continues to be the purpose of my work and the metaphysical requirement of unity, to be understood, enjoyed (I hope so) and enriched by your gaze.

Thank you very much then for accompanying me for a while, on this intergalactic and musical journey of my life by the Grace of the Lord.

Daniel Irigoyen
