profiles
Hailing from Tijuana, Mexico, Fernando Corona’s musical background runs the gamut from an acoustic rock to experimental multimedia. A phase of composing for dance ensembles led him to develop a taste for 20th century classical music, particularly the emotional music of eastern european composers like Henryk Gorecki and Arvo Pärt.Corona was born in Tijuana in 1970 but lived most of his life in Ensenada, a small port eighty miles south of Tijuana. Returning to the city in mid-2000, Fernando finds himself at the peak of his creative powers as a sought after musical producer working with local bands, remixing other musical projects (including the Kronos Quartet), producing musical scores for short films and video games.
A former member of the Tijuana-based Nortec Collective of electronic musicians and artists (whose members also include Panoptica), his debut as Murcof was the Monotónu EP, released through Sutekh’s Context label.
