The Furious Sessions
Open-knowledge reference entry
The Furious Sessions is a musical project developed for the Spanish newspaper El País by the Sol de Sants Studios in Barcelona and the RiD vídeo crew.
A big part of the major Spanish indie bands have recorded a "Furious Session", which consist in a live video take of one song in the studio. With the years the project has grown into a bigger show, with international bands such as Vintage Trouble, Femi Kuti, Dungen, Lloyd Cole, Avishai Cohen, The Wild Feathers, Glasvegas, Rodrigo Amarante or Morcheeba.
It started in 2011 when Alberto Sol de Sants, Javier Domínguez and Bernat Rueda decided to record their first band together. Since then Sol de Sants Studios is hosting one session per month in which the musicians feel free to experiment. Very often the results are so positive that the bands include these recording into their LP's.
In January 2013, the Spanish newspaper El País joined the project.
El País is realising one Furious Sessions per month.
Begin with the source’s own compact description: “The Furious Sessions” is open-knowledge reference entry. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Furious, Sessions and Open-knowledge, not as a finished interpretation.
Why this record matters
The phrase “open-knowledge reference entry” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 20, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q7735489. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2011 and 2013.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
