Produced by Philippe Petit for his Modulisme platform supporting Modular Synthesis.

“Territorios Inestables” offers three pieces and is a collection of works of a different nature, origin and purpose than my multichannel electroacoustic works for concert; sound meditations for deep listening, music for installations in museums, galleries or public spaces, interventions in unconventional venues, one-day events, performances, sound sculptures or any other material not published in my catalog of compositions.

Antonio Raúl Russek Martínez is a Mexican composer of electroacoustic music and considered a pioneer of sound art in Mexico.

Russek began his studies in Torreón where he belonged to a children’s orchestra, playing the saxophone, while studying the piano with private teachers between 1969 and 1972. He composed his first pieces for theatre and dance.

In 1973, he moved to Mexico City and started to compose music for plays + began the construction of ‘musical objects’, motivated by the desire to unite the sound and the visual. In 1974 Russek set up his personal electroacoustic music studio in the Condesa neighbourhood, becoming the first of its kind in Mexico. He founded the Centro Independiente de Investigación Musical y Multimedia (CIIMM) in 1978 and there he carried out musical production, recording, as well as publications, editorial and academic work. Concerts, conferences and events related to electronic music and alternative media were held at CIIMM throughout the decades.

From 1981 onwards he worked on interdisciplinary works and has created sound settings for exhibitions. He also specializes in installation pieces, video art, radio art, sound sculpture, ephemeral pieces and music for dance and theatre.

In the compositional field, his work focuses on Electroacoustic and the use of electronic resources and his catalogue comprises more than 100 works, including sound art pieces and collaborations with other artists and composers.

"Modulisme," formerly "Early ElectroMIX," is a platform that aims to support original composing for analog modular systems but not only… A radio program airing music made using modular systems… Each program lasts one hour and is especially dedicated to one composer and features some exclusive music made for us.
