Suso Sáiz

Suso Sáiz (Jesús Saiz Alcántara) is a Spanish guitarist, composer and producer born in Cádiz, whose career has been based in Madrid. He studied guitar at the conservatory in Madrid and in 1980 co-founded the experimental group Orquesta de las Nubes. His solo albums, made from 1984 on and often built from loops, move between ambient and experimental music, and he cites La Monte Young as an early influence. Orquesta de las Nubes, with percussionist Pedro Estevan and soprano María Villa, recorded for the Madrid label Grabaciones Accidentales.
