Francisco Lopez hails from the musical tradition Musique Concrete, meaning that the sounds the audience hears are processed recordings of mundane sounds heard around us in daily life. Lopez attempts to have his audience listen to sounds and music from a new perspective, rather than using sounds in a documentary manner. He wants to present music free of associations, and his concerts can be regarded as studies in purity.
