AAM in Paris -galerie mor.charpentier-


AAM= Ángel Sánchez Borges, musician noise maker, producer, promoter; since the late 80 ́s part of the experimental music scene in México. In 2002 he started the project called AAM= Antiguo Autómata Mexicano, now with three albums released thru Düsseldorf ́s Background Records (Microhate, 2005), and Tijuana ́s label Static Discos (Kraut Slut 2007, Chez Nobody 2009).

Sánchez Borges works as sound artist, live performer, theatre and contemporary dance scores composer as well as a web artist. His abstract grooves, complex rhythm noisy patterns and abrassive loft techno are now considered one of the most interesting music coming from México.

He also runs two other musical projects: Seekers who Are Lovers, wich has edited one album (You Are The Pride of your street, 20006) and Danceable Solutions, a electro-disco oriented project.

In the last years Sánchez Borges has been experimenting with social networks as aesthetics sources or as art projects in itself, such as re-apropiation of YouTube ́s amateur musicians videos, wich he reconfigures to create orchestral ensambles related to free form music and improvisations, echoeing músique concréte and atonalism, as a way to relink the original avant-garde genres, with the new possibilities of interaction and programming of the digital tools.

He ́s working right now on a series of geolocated pieces in Google Earth, called eMpTY (electronic positioning Monterrey), where he is putting in contrast the real and the virtual city, with some works that inquire about urbanism, digital and analogue art in the contexts, with a theoretical aproach and a self critical praxis about the digital art universe.

At last but not least, Sánchez Borges is a promoter of experimental music and digital art events and a radio/tv producer in his current living city Monterrey, México. For detailed examples and projects ́s media links please visit:
