Alejandro Núñez Allauca, Gravitación Humana (1970): Beyond the melody

Abstract

In the 1960s, electronic music was emerging as an innovative and experimental field, but its production was not based on digital media as we know it today. Instead, electronic music pioneers worked with analogue equipment that allowed them to generate, record and manipulate sounds in revolutionary ways. In this context, a remarkable work known as Gravitación Humana by composer Alejandro Nuñez Allauca emerged, encapsulating the essence of electronic and concrete music of the time.
