Wild Honey - Ruinas FuturasThe songs of Ruinas Futuras appeared in Guillermo Farre's voice memos as if by magic. After Torres Blancas (2017), Wild Honey's last album to date, Guillermo's life became somewhat of a topsy turvy affair, not in the least because he became a dad twice in the space of less than two years. Between fatherhood and office work, the days went by at lightning speed, and there was hardly any room for music. Or was there. One day, while traveling by train,

The songs of Ruinas Futuras appeared in Guillermo Farre's voice memos as if by magic. After Torres Blancas (2017), Wild Honey's last album to date, Guillermo's life became somewhat of a topsy turvy affair, not in the least because he became a dad twice in the space of less than two years. Between fatherhood and office work, the days went by at lightning speed, and there was hardly any room for music. Or was there. One day, while traveling by train, Guillermo started listening to the voice memos he'd been accumulating on his phone. He discovered sketches of songs in which, behind kids' babbling, crying and screaming, he could hear pianos, guitars and out-of-tune ah-ah-ahs he didn't recall recording. It was like opening a chest found in the attic, forgotten and left there by a previous tenant. Wanting to fit the tiny pieces of the puzzle together into an album, Guillermo turned to Remate, the musician he's been collaborating with in recent years, composing and producing soundtracks in an almost symbiotic way. From the start, they knew they wanted to apply their soundtrack production experiments to the classical song format. But then, Guillermo's life took another turn, a global one this time, and his plans to record the album in the traditional way were blown up with the onset of the pandemic. Guillermo and Remate began to work remotely, with continuous video calls and files going back and forth over the internet-the next mutation of Guillermo's voice memos. They worked like this for months, and they seized the opportunity to collaborate with musicians confined to different cities. Shawn Lee took care of the drums and percussion from London; Javier Lorente and Anita Steinberg did the bass tracks and backing vocals from Berlin, and the album was finished off by Ali Chant, mixing the songs in his studio in Bristol, where he had previously worked with artists such as Aldous Harding and Perfume Genius. The result is Ruinas Futuras, an album of songs that came out of nowhere, recorded under the strangest circumstances we've ever had to live through, and which talks about the moments when life takes a turn, and you don't really know in which direction. On the cover, we see Guillermo Farre suspended in the air, falling, ascending. A moment of euphoria, the prelude to a crash. Life, frozen in an instant that we won't be able to understand until a long time after. The artwork, like on Wild Honey's previous albums, is by Grande Graphix, with photography by Yago Castromil. Ruinas Futuras is an album of rounded songs, where the intimate intersects with science fiction. String and brass arrangements with undulating synths. Percussion loops with tremolo and infinite reverb resonating among the ruins of a post-apocalyptic cinematic city. It's a found album, on which Guillermo Farre talks about life's twists and turns, and which holds the best collection of songs of his career.

Can easily hide towels
Works nicely. I have it mounted with towels hanging on the inside of my cabinet so you see only the small hooks on the outside of the cabinet door. It extends nicely and has ample room for one towel folded in half on each bar; you would have to fold each towel again to get 2 side by side. Only minor issue the hooks extend over the door a little lower than I'd like and they are beveled outward on the bottom so you see this on the outside. I have a similar design single bar rack with smaller less noticeable hooks. Neither one is completely invisible but at least I can hide the towels and not cover up my new beautiful stainless range or cabinets with towels. Worth the money.

A simple but useful little gadget
I love my little galley kitchen which really only has one wall as it is open to the family room and dining room. So no available wall space meant no place to install towel bars. That meant there was no space to hang up my dish towels to dry. These towel bars were the solution to that little (but daily) annoyance. They attached easily and securely to my cabinet drawers. I am very pleased with them.

Great Towel Rack
This is a replacement for a similar towel rack. It looked exactly the same, but welds failed after a number of years. This one is designed much better. It is adjustable the other was not. Very clean looking and expect this to last at least as long as the other or longer. My wife loves it.

Sturdy but hard to use
This bar is sturdy and doesn't bend but the bars are too close together making it difficult to hang towels on. Pro: sturdy and quality made Con: hard to use

Perfect for my needs
I don’t have many towel racks in my bathrooms and they’re hard for me to reach because I’m disabled. I bought a couple of small over the door racks, but they’re too small for hand towels. I didn’t have high hopes for this adjustable rack, I thought it would uncouple and fall from the door. I’m pleased to say I was wrong. There appears to be a stopper keeping both sides in place. I like that it has 2 bars, I easily put my face towel on one and my hand towel on the other. If I have a complaint, I wish the whole unit was another inch longer.
