In the heart of Palencia, Spain, a powerful artistic rebellion is taking shape. Musician and composer Jesús Ángel Rodríguez Buzón has unveiled “Disastrous Construction”, a stirring rock composition that doesn’t just demand to be heard; it commands reflection. This is not merely a song; it’s the opening movement of an ambitious project: a rock opera inspired by George Orwell’s classic, Animal Farm.
From its first haunting chords, “Disastrous Construction” conjures a vivid world of chaos, order, and revolution. Buzón fuses the energy of modern rock with a classical sense of drama, channeling Orwell’s cautionary tale of power and corruption into sound. The guitars surge like uprisings; the percussion thunders with the weight of rebellion; and beneath it all lies an unrelenting pulse of tension, the sound of ideals collapsing into tyranny.
Jesús explains his mission with deep conviction: “Animal Farm is one of the most powerful stories ever written about power, corruption, and freedom. I want to translate that strength into music to make people feel the revolution, the conflict, and the hope through rock.” It’s this commitment to emotional truth that defines “Disastrous Construction.”
Every note feels deliberate, crafted to mirror the rise and fall of ideals in Orwell’s world. The track isn’t content to merely pay homage to literature; it expands it, transforming narrative into rhythm and emotion. By doing so, Buzón blurs the line between composer and storyteller, between rock and theatre.
But this release is only the beginning. “Disastrous Construction” serves as a preview of what’s to come: a full-scale rock opera that aims to merge storytelling, stage performance, and raw musical energy into one electrifying production. Buzón is inviting producers, musicians, and collaborators to join him in bringing this vision to life, a collective effort to transform one of the 20th century’s most politically charged works into a 21st-century sonic revolution.
With “Disastrous Construction,” Jesús Ángel Rodríguez Buzón doesn’t just reinterpret Animal Farm; he reinvents how its message can be experienced through sound, through feeling, and through the raw spirit of rock itself.
