Bioluminik is the duo formed by Ivonne Valdez and Eliz Gómez. Active in the music circuit in Mexico, their work is conformed by field recordings, piano and electronic glitches, as well as an organic approach.
Upbrought in between composition, sound design and audiovisual experimentation, they create a sonic identity that evokes the exploration of atmospheres, timbres and soundscapes that go from subtle to dark, lead by detailed rhythms and evolving environments.
In 2020, they debut with this double single and first seed that announces a triple release from Bioluminik: two tracks that detonate the exploration of diverse styles as an initial glimpse of their music.
This brief but concise mini-EP is released in digital formats and also as a download card that contains a seed, focused on themes that portray nature, like an apex of balance in a saturated and polluted moment, inviting listeners to cultivate figuratively and literally: like a synaesthetic, reflexive and natural experience.
The release comes with a seed that you can cultivate yourself, complementing a personal narrative to the music, which is filled with hope: the concept of the title, refers to the sprout of a root, the compression of the Earth, the desire of expansion of a stem, the first touch of sunlight on vegetal skin and the extended geometry of a plant.
