"Sensitive dub è il primo nome che ho usato quando ho cominciato ad occuparmi di musica,
l ho tenuto nel progetto SBL.
Nella vita mi occupo arti visive, amo gli elementi non creati dall'uomo e le catastrofi naturali.
Da qualche tempo oltre il progetto SBL, ho cominciato un altra ricerca sonora,legata ai miei lavori visivi
chiamata "Progetto Abitare", una specie di diario dove raccolgo registrazioni dagli ambienti in cui sto, e i miei stati d animo del momento."

Through different projects, Sensitive Dub, is mainly concerned with art activities but, nonetheless, take also the time to live in Cagliari.

“Salvador España is Sr.Aye. With known languages like hip hop, downtempo or IDM, he tries to take the listener to his world of melodies and beats, so particular and unique as an aye-aye. During the last years he has been collaborating both as producing and managing Miga, a plattform which is working since 2004 on the artistic diffusion. Within this period he released on netlabels and labels like Plataforma-LTW, Minuendo, Addsensor, Impar, Homeworks records, Audiovisualtheorem, Miga...

He also performed several live sets, developing both main ways of his music. One of them more experimental, focused to cultural events and festivals where he made sets mixing abstract hip hop and IDM. Among these events we can highlight Observatori 07, Electrosplash 06, Zemos98 06, Visionica 08, Plug 09, Territorios 08 and many others celebrated at cultural centres, museums and universities.

His first album "Nocturnal Habits" will be published late 2009 in the Barcelona-based label Inrecs. We will listen him also on the O. S. T of the project "Hormigas suben al arbol" made by Puertas de Castilla´s Cultural Center.”

Sr.Aye is coming from Malaga and actually lives in Almeria.
