MENK’ ( ՄԵՆՔ ) means ‘’us’’ in the armenian language.
MENK’ is Xabier Iriondo and Franz Valente.
Two artists that work, grow and create together. It happened again and, this time, a new project is born.
The duo shares many years of friendship and musical projects. This time they created 8 new tracks with the clear purpose to fracture the walls between sludge/doom music and electroacoustic avantgarde.
Cymbals, harmonium, string instruments, electronic music, metal percussions, snare drum and electric guitar are blended together and create a kaleidoscope of tones and colours, silence and noises in a sequence of dynamic turnover that makes this music timeless.
All these tracks have been recorded in the Armenian Church of Villa Albrizzi (Treviso, Italy) on March 12th 2023.
