Melodies in the Garden

Sachi Kobayashi - Sakura (rework)

Mi Cosa de Resistance is Buenos Aires, Argentina based artist Fernando Perales, who has released with labels including Elm, Rusted Tone, Minimal Resource Manipulation, Aural Tethers and his own imprint ‘Hissful Tapes’. Fernando was also the spearhead behind the various artists album ‘A Speechless Body’ which we released on Whitelabrecs in January 2022. Within the line-up of artists included in this project was Ciro Berenguer with whom he has collaborated for this album.  Ciro also originates from Argentina, hailing from Rosario but for the last couple of decades, he has lived in Barcelona, Spain. Ciro’s music has been released on labels such as Dauw, Eilean and Slaapwel. He has also collaborated with Ghost and Tape (Heine Christensen) as Sokkyo.

This collaborative album between Mi Cosa de Resistance and Ciro Berenguer is entitled ‘El final de las lluvias', which translates to ‘The end of the rains’. It is inspired by moments of transition; in the Mediterranean they know Spring has ended and Summer is approaching once the rain subsides. This may be the title of the album and but one example, yet the broader theme of the album is to mark the end of something, and the beginning of something else.

There is a balance of these artists’ respective styles and inputs, in an album adept in presenting light, dark and melancholic moods through its many shades. It’s a space in which their musical personalities can live alongside one another as one, with Fernando’s hints of darkness placed alongside Ciro’s music box compositions and recordings of bicycle rides through the suburbs of Barcelona. It draws in experiences of pre and post pandemic life, from the viewpoint of two populous cities, and its blend of blurred naturalistic-leaning tones sit, decayed, against an urban bedrock. At times optimistic, at times despairing, El final de las lluvias was finished in Spring 2022 as these artists emerged from a 2 year period of life, learning to deal with the challenges of the pandemic. This record, a document, marks the conclusion of one phase, and the beginning of something else.
