Freaking Out with Kendraplex
Alma Laprida is a time whisperer, conjuring medieval spirits from the tromba marina like a magic trick. Each bow stroke is a spray of timbre, a splattering of micro-incantations evoking a raw perseverance and awakening memories of past lives. Is she birthing the past or the future? Her sounds take on a life of their own. In this interview, we explore improvisation, “jamming the wind,” and her new album Pitch Dark and Trembling: For Tromba Marina and Subwoofer, out October 25th on the Outside Time label.
