When Gabriel Guti\u00e9rrez agreed to receive us in his apartment\/studio in Lisbon<\/a>, I rushed to read past interviews with other media, listen to more of his music than ever and try to understand one of the most curious and unique minds of today\u2019s electronic music scene. Or, as he likes to say, contemporary scene. Guti<\/a> considers himself a contemporary musician. Asked if he would catalogue his music as dance or contemplative, he answers the same: \u201cMy music is contemporary because it has been created here and now.\u201d That is why it shuns the classic structures of the industry. The profile of an artist who \u201cproduces two singles a year and spends six months touring and playing them\u201d does not appeal to him at all. That\u2019s why he claims that the scene is not made for him. Faced with such a complex guy, you hardly know what to ask or where to strike. It was Monday at noon. Guti takes us to a bar near his home in the Portuguese capital. Fortunately, after the first question, we engage, among bread and beer, in a conversation, a talk that looks little or nothing like an interview. Although, in fact, those are the best interviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
