HIGHLIGHTS Respuestas transforms Nicole L'Huillier's exploration of Mochica whistling vessels into an immersive sonic ecosystem where ancestral vibrations, environmental signals, and AI-generated reinterpretations coexist in constant flux. Blending sound art, technology, and spiritual inquiry, the album reimagines listening as an act of reciprocity -a dialogue between past and future that expands the material and perceptual boundaries of sound. DESCRIPTION Buh Records is pleased to announce the release of Respuestas, the new album by Chilean sound and transdisciplinary artist Nicole L'Huillier, based in Berlin. Her work centers on the exploration of sound and vibrations as materials for reflecting on agency, collectivity, and vibrational imagination. This approach has taken shape through sound sculptures, immersive installations, experimental devices, performances, compositions, and more. Respuestas originates from Resonaciones, an exhibition by L'Huillier conceived in collaboration with Francisca Gili and guided by Karen Urcia, a Mochica healer and cultural activist. Presented at ifa Gallery Stuttgart, with curatorship by Bettina Korintenberg and Carolina Arévalo, the exhibition revolved around the activation of whistling vessels from the Moche culture, safeguarded at the Linden Museum, to bring forth an immersive soundscape in constant transformation. The album Respuestas gathers this process, compiling recordings made with contact microphones, electromagnetic sensors, and listening devices designed by the artist herself. The vibrations of the vessels expand in dialogue with recordings of planetary tremors, environmental oscillations, visitor contributions, and AI-mediated reinterpretations created in collaboration with musician and engineer Manaswi Mishra, forming a dynamic sound field that resonates across past, present, and future. The result unfolds as a laboratory where fragments, noises, and textures are organized into dense, reverberant layers. In the spirit of musique concrète and sound collage experiments, L'Huillier weaves together heterogeneous materials that, through interlacing and transformation, generate an immersive listening experience highlighting the materiality of sound and its ability to open new perceptual spaces. Sounds emerge and submerge, as if circulating between visible surfaces and hidden depths. Based on a principle of reciprocity, Respuestas proposes listening as an act of mutual transformation. Each piece becomes an exchange - a call and response - connecting ancestral imaginaries with contemporary technologies, opening possibilities for new forms of sonic inquiry and continuity. Respuestas is released by Buh Records in digital and vinyl formats. All compositions by Nicole L'Huillier. Produced and mastered by Juan Necochea. Experiments and AI system by Manaswi Mishra. Art and design by Stoodio Santiago Silva.
