Description
A sonic exploration between mystical chants and deep listening electronics; a prehistory of the future.
500 copies - 140 gramms vinyl
The album presents itself as an exercise in observing and exploring lunar cycles and other cosmic objects such as black holes. To achieve this, the artists collaborated with physicists from the Autonomous University of Madrid, interpreting their observations into the album’s compositions. The result is a static dance between analog synthesizers, massive sound processing, and the ethereal voice of Coco Moya. Each track feels like an event that we not only hear but also touch with our skin. This album invites the listener to synchronize with the lunar pulse and immerse themselves in its gravitational rhythm.
Conceptually, the album is nourished by the synergy between science, nature, and technology, transporting us to an introspective universe. As the artists themselves describe: "It is a syncretism between mystical chants and deep listening electronics; a prehistory of the future," says Coco Moya. This work captures the essence of their sound: intimate, abyssal, and resonant.
Regarding the aesthetic of the compositions, Iván Cebrián states: “With this album, we wanted to find the balance between ambient music and Coco Moya’s vocal compositions, and this actually took a lot of work.”
