Grenade is a phonographic piece made from experimental walks in Andalusia by the Medit. groups. Field-recordings by robin R., carole Lorthiois and Unuagist Completion by robin R. & étienne Noiseau Composition by robin R. & Unuagist
"Grenade (Granada) is a city Grenade is a fruit Grenade is an explosive…
Grenade has become for me a phonographic piece: the source of an immense joy, an address to air friends… it will always be difficult for me to speak of it because I experienced so many feelings during this exoteric trip! I know there was something decisive in it, something tragic. I hope it was not another lost paradise… Rise up ! -the man shouted in his megaphone, before the Spanish police took him in front of the church exit, face to a muzzled crowd incapable to defend him."
