Miscellany
A journey through collaborators, origins, and the studio.
Friends and Collaborators
Alberto Barea
A companion of path and sensitivity since childhood. His mastery in composition and conducting is admirable. His ability to tackle musical styles from the Middle Ages to 20th-century music is impressive.

The foundation, the pulse, and the friendship. His presence on drums and percussion, as well as his work as a sound engineer, are the bedrock on which projects like The Brass Buttons are built.

Origins: NND (1993 - 1995)
NND (The NoNameD) was the group where everything began.
A project formed by Victor Navarro (Electric Guitar), Manolo Martínez (Vocals), Alberto Barea (Drums), Jose Ramón Vaca (Bass), and Fernando Vela (Acoustic Guitar).
We recorded two demos that I keep today as a testimony of that stage of learning and electric development. These are the tracks rescued from the original masters of that time:
