"RETROTECH é um concerto de música eletrônica composto por Carlos Trilha, executado ao vivo por ele e o tecladista - programador André Dessandes, utilizando sintetizadores, sequencers e drum machines analógicos da década de 70 e início dos anos 80. Esses intrumentos históricos que estão no set da dupla são os resposáveis pela origem dos sons eletrônicos característicos hoje em dia amplamente propagados através de diversas vertentes da música pop e eletrônica.
O grande detalhe desta produção é a não utilização de "loops" ou bibliotecas de sons disponíveis no mercado. Todos os timbres são criados a partir de instrumentos verdadeiros, em primeira geração, conferindo ao RETROTECH uma releitura impactante da sonoridade clássica da música eletrônica.

O destaque das apresentacões ao vivo são os instrumentos analógicos raríssimos levados ao palco que revelam ao público a operação desses interessantes equipamentos. Além disso, RETROTECH também conta com um set especial de projeção com imagens generativas ( criadas em tempo real ), sincronizadas através de softwares escritos por Alessandra Marfisa especialmente para cada performance.

RETROTECH é uma obra que resgata a belle époque da música eletrônica, e mais do que um experiência audio-visual emocionante, é uma inspiradora viagem no tempo para os amantes de arte contemporânea."

These historical instruments that are on the set of double resposáveis are the origin of electronic sounds characteristic now widely spread across several strands of pop music and electronics.
The great detail of this production is not to use loops or sound libraries available. All sounds are created from real instruments, first generation, giving the retrotech a striking reinterpretation of the classic sound of electronic music.

The highlight of the live performances are rare analog instruments staged to show the public the operation of these interesting devices. In addition, retrotech also has a special set of projection images with generative (created in real time), synchronized by software written by Alessandra Marfisa especially for each performance.

Retrotech is a work that recalls the belle epoque of electronic music, and more than one audio-visual experience exciting, is an inspiring journey in time for lovers of contemporary art."

The highlight of the live performances is the use of rare analog instruments, staged to show the public how these interesting devices work. In addition, RETROTECH also uses a special set of projection images from generative code (created in real time), synchronized by software written with MAX/MSP/JITTER by ALESSaNDRA MARFISA specially for each performance.

RETROTECH is a work that recalls the "belle epoque" of electronic music; more than just an exciting audio-visual experience, it is "an inspiring journey through time for lovers of contemporary art."
