"Călătoria" aka The Journey is Narativ's latest and last release, at least here at DrumComputer. Thanks for all the releases so far! ✌️ 

Due to the artist's health issues at that time, the release didn't have a description and was rapidly out on Bandcamp. 
It can be characterized as having a rushed mixdown process and unfinished (if not repetitive) composition side for all four tracks. 
@Pheek did the mastering part and we thank you for the involvement!

An official statement from the artist - Narativ's words:

Calatoria sadly starts with "201420152016". This piece marks the most depressing years in trying to succeed in the music industry alongside friends, which was the biggest mistake I've ever made. Although I love the low end and how the drums sound, I've been stuck at least a year on the keys for this track, every time I wanted to continue, I just couldn't... I was too overwhelmed by the feeling of sadness . I think what this track means is: keep the music (passion) to yourself and go on progressing with it.

The second track "Jocul Inimii" is the joyful & housey one from this release, hahaha. I  first started to produce it in 2017 November and it sounded like the soundtrack of a pr0n flick - over the years it suffered a lot of changes and I'm still not sure this is the right version of it. I do believe it has too much hi end and the mastering process has confirmed this, lol, but it had potential and a bit of soul.

The third one, "Moartea bombardierului", should be the darkest piece, but more in a dark comedy way. It was started in 2019 - we used to joke about this being the anthem at funerals in Gorjului area, Bucharest. Made a mistake with this track, it was punchier and heavier on the low end side and I thought it was too much and removed a lot - now it does not have that initial intensity and it sounds rather bland. 

The final piece named "Umbli cu Trucuri" is the hidden gem of the album. The track is dedicated to some kind of "special" people surrounding you; then you find yourself being just a tool/method used to achieve someone else's end.
The composition started in 2018 and the track suffered many changes - it is still incomplete from a composition + mixdown view - I had to let it go, to see the light.

I hope this journey is not a completely disappointing experience, and others can find inspiration, if not anything else positive while auditioning.

Hope – a release

Hope is that invisible, yet extremely powerful thread that follows us throughout our lives. It’s that something that makes us believe that there is light at the end of the tunnel and that all will work out for the best. Just as hope is food for soul, HOPE is set to be a vessel of cathartic power that transports you to a happy place.
Music is one of the most mysterious, yet rich and fulfilling human wonders. It’s that one code that speaks in a way that words cannot. Hope is always there, although we do not see it all the times and we think that sometimes it left us. It is the primary thread that flows through these 4 music pieces that bring forth a taste of what’s to come. Narrative Device and Tibbs have been in a musical journey for some time now and are here to give us a sip of Hope for rainy days.

Narativ (@narativ-music) delivers the debut release with DrumComputer, creating a percussive statement in a multitude of instruments, named "Constructing the Unheard Voice". 

The Edit, coproducer Vlad S., treats the original idea with different low end frequencies & mix-down approach, minor changes in drums and some synth variations.

Lyrics:
(*the unheard voice: although lyrics are present, they aren't the focus of the track, the artist choosing not to reveal them publicly; their origin should remain a mystery)

Release Biography: 
Curly Bracket delivers us a new smooth 2-piece release that takes us on an introspective journey during these weird times we are living. The first track presents itself as a numbing agent, giving us calmness for days. This is the perfect intro for the second track which has more punch and packs more energy. The only thing that remains is to sit back and enjoy! A bit of auditory escapade goes a long way
