TRACK04 / REGISTRE /Hoy navegando en Internet / dentro de un chat me registré y con ella me encontré. En su privado me filtré / y la noche volando se nos fue, quedamos en volver. Amorcom - Camela
I was searching for some legal document As the rain beat down on the hood When I stumbled upon pictures I tried to forget And that's how this idea was drilled into my head Title And Registration - Death cub for cutie
Record is a concept that encompasses a broad spectrum of interpretations, ranging from the act of capturing an action on any medium - be it cinema, photography, video or paper - to the track one leaves behind when surfing the Internet, as Camela reminds us. Ramón Almeda, the author of the lyrics for the Registre videoclip, interpreted the concept from the legal perspective, much to our surprise. This shows Sonesnat as an intersection of multiple creative impulses. Registre
is a montage of home footage originally in Super 8. Retrieving this kind
of file is an ordinary practice (and a resource) in both contemporary
art and videoclips. I think that, in videoclips, it is basically a matter
of the texture of the image, giving it an irresistible appeal as well
as an evocative power, so this resource has been used many times (Guns'n'Roses'
Sweet Child O Mine includes parts shot in Super 8 for sheer pleasure,
as does Depeche Mode's Enjoy the Silence, one of the few mainstream
videoclips completely shot in Super 8). The texture of Super 8 is an infallible
resource in videoclips to hark back to old, usually better, times (Amaral's
Días de verano, among many others), or to a yearned-for childhood
(Madonna's Papa Don't Preach).
The friction between the subject matter of the lyrics and the archive material chosen for the visual part of Registre produces a special sense that evokes of childhood moments, where everything was safe in the bosom of the family, when the division between permanent and summer quarters was still clear. Houses, flats, rooms that disappear from our life with growth and the shift to adulthood.

ORIGINAL LYRICS Author: Ramón Almeda (graphic designer)
Psicofonies de la propietat immobiliària, xiuxiuegen tic tac tic tac tic, en les anelles dels arbres registrades, en fulls de paper resclosit. Mirall del futur en un passat, un glop de whisky a la consciència, quan l'odi és l'amor girat, passes l'edat de la innocència. Un segon d'aquest moment, Un instant d'aquell segon, Un pessic en un instant, Sempre en queda una inscripció. Registre, graduacions de la vista, per polítics i cuentistes, sempre anant per fora pista, Registre, un mal moment per ser ministre, en un moment tot se m'enquista, no és només anar al dentista, Registre, oposicions per rellotger, comptant segons per ser el primer, i quan hi ets què n'has de fer? Sempre és igual de diferent, i així fins al gran canvi, la gent continua fent, neixes, creixes i et fas avi. L'era glacial registrada als pols, com les empremtes d'un homicidi.
