“A staggering wealth of ideas drawn with a fineliner. There is always a fine balance between clarity and secrecy. Rodríguez Valenzuela’s music is great art.”
Enno Poppe

Hideouts alerts us to a potential risk in attempting to understand the music of Manuel Rodríguez Valenzuela: that of mistaking his methodology for his thinking. Given his remarkable imagination, it is sometimes easy to focus on the most obvious aspects of his music (invented objects, ingeniously prepared and amplified instruments, or an imaginative manipulation of sound) and to pass over the fact that all of this is inspired by a unique, intimate manner of thinking. Listening to Hideouts is an excellent way to go deeper into the work of this composer, since his most important features –idealism in the smallest detail, and the value he gives to the concept of listening as evidenced in quotations, cultural intrusion, intertextuality and reflection upon the context– can be appreciated in pieces employing seemingly different methods.
