Dear Gardeners. Please welcome our next artist and interview in the series:
Alexandru Dumitrescu aka REASONANDU!

(from Constanta, Romania)

☁️🌳 CLOUD GARDEN ☁️🌳 
Thanks to accept our interview. First please tell us something from yourself that can be interesting for our listeners. It can be anything not needs to be related strictly to music.

✨ REASONANDU ✨

I am a person who has found balance in life near the sea
 and I try to reflect spiritual goodness and lust for life through music.

☁️🌳 CLOUD GARDEN ☁️🌳

What are your next challenges in the music scene? Concerts, gigs, or maybe some upcoming releases you have in the pipeline? How are your overall mood and creativity nowadays?

✨ REASONANDU ✨

Last year has been quite productive for me. Although I don't release every month like others, I try to be consistent and I don't want to compose music in a commercial way, but I like my music to be heard by many people.
The collaborations are very ok, I will probably have more collaborations with several artists and more singles follow next year, even if there are many changes at the planetary level, and the frequency in many areas is not good, my music can give another perspective on reality. 
Regarding parties, I'm not the type to do this, I think that to have a live performance, I need a team. And at the moment, the scene has not yet recovered.

☁️🌳 CLOUD GARDEN ☁️🌳

We already listened to your selection. I can tell that you beautifully catch the Cloud Garden philosophy. But what were your personal inspiration and emotions during the process of the creation? What is the story behind the music, that you want to tell us?

✨ REASONANDU ✨

I am very happy about your interpretation. Related to inspiration. I can say that from this mix, part of the vibration is given by E-Mantra, with which I composed part of the tracks included in this mix. It all depends on how far the mind can travel through the abyss of imagination.
One thing that kept this project alive is the people who supported this project in various ways, and they are the ones who give us part of the energy. I thank them and you.

Project_???

A tender journey through nurture and strength, where each moment carries fragility and power. Layers of light and shadow intertwine, forming a protective, vast and infinitely sustaining presence. In its embrace, growth and reflection find their home.

Best new artist revealed on Altar last year, I.M.D aka Marco Cajero is back with a full-length album titled "Mensaje al corazón".

"Mensaje al corazón", in English "Message to the Heart", is a delicate and profound psychill album that soothes with a sustained breathy tone and a wide and deep emotional sound. We hope you'll have a great listening experience.

Some words from Marco about the creation of this album: 

"During our life, we experienced different forms of Love; the Love that we receive from our family through a hug, the Love that we share with a good friend or a stranger through a good chat, the Love we offer in the moment through when kissing a beloved one. 

All of this these forms of Love are just projections, expressions of the Love that is living inside us, and that we decide to share. 

This album has been inspired by the most pure form of Love that a human can experience. 

Finding myself in an empty space, where nothing exists but pure energy, I found myself with this infinite Love, the Love that each of us has deep inside: Self Love. 

Each song has been named after an experience I've lived during this last year, where I found myself with this infinite energy. 

I hope this message of sound, can bring you to a place where you can find your Self Love, and hopefully you will be able to experience this infinite energy of light that flows inside of each of us. Hear it, feel it, embrace it, 

This is a message to life, this is a message to the heart."

I.M.D 


Beautifully illustrated with the art of Manu Menendez "El mensajero de los sueños": 
"The fox symbolism ushers in a time of great discernment, especially when it comes to your personal relationships. Everything is so much clearer when you have the fox meaning working in your personal life. The fox totem represents your great wisdom, just like the elk totem..."

Lyrics - La flor que me besó

No estoy sola, 
Nunca lo he estado, 
No he perdido a nadie, 
Pues viven dentro de mi, 

Yendo al infinito, 
Tenia los ojos cerrados, 
Y cuando desperté, 
Una Flor me besó

//// English ///// 

Im not alone, 
I have never been, 
I haven’t lost anyone, 
They live inside of me, 

Going to Infinity,
I had my eyes closed, 
And when i woke up, 
A flower kissed me
