La Muerte

Natura Sonora is both an album of imagined journeys and a homage to the immensity, beauty and mystery of the natural world.

The album was created during the first Covid-19 lockdown from my 40sqm flat in a Parisian suburb, dreaming of the beauty of the outside world.

The concept was to use music as a tool to go on an imagined journey to some of the world’s most beautiful natural places - an escape from the same view from my window of a grey, urban environment during lockdown. I chose nine stunningly beautiful, strange and mysterious corners of the world I have always dreamt of visiting but never have. I immersed myself in these places, watching video, photographs and seeking out recordings of how they sound.

These recordings became the foundation for each track, from creaking ice to underwater mangroves, goats and birds to rain and rivers, each sound has its own story to tell. I would place the ‘found sound’ recording into Ableton, hook up my Digitone synth or some drum kits and start to explore and experiment alongside the sound. I also took a lot of inspiration from sound ecologists like Bernie Kraus’ work on the musicality of nature and how sound can be a measure of an ecosystem’s health.

Natura Sonora is an ode to the majesty of nature and its power to inspire, a reminder that despite our attempts to control it, we remain in awe of its power, its beauty and its mystery. It is also an ode to the imagination, to travelling without moving and how, despite the hardship, the pandemic also pushed our creative boundaries.

I couldn’t imagine a better artwork to accompany this album than this incredible piece by Tomás Sánchez, one of Cuba’s most important living artists. His stunningly detailed landscapes explore the beauty and loss of our natural world, depicting a utopic, untouched, dreamlike scene which no longer exists and often placing a lone figure meditating before a lush, wild, green backdrop.

His work presents a paradox of mourning for what we have destroyed alongside hope and a vision of what we are trying to save - a symbol of hope within chaos.

Esta track salió 100 % de un Ipad durante varios viajes.

Me inspiro en un poema brasileño que decía como los niños jugaban antes de la llegada de las nuevas tecnologías.

Lyrics
Ain’t no more playing small I wanna take it all 
Take a risk and let the universe break my fall
I’m going big check the wave I’m on
I’m surfing now instead of waiting until later on
Mic checking this going bigger than Mount Everest 
The precipice is treacherous before you know it you’re gone
I’m in my zone getting flown out to my big home
Cuz I’m living large fully grown
Walk into the unknown and then the path is shown
When you reach the destination gotta make it your own
Gotta hone your skill til you so become so ill 
That the people gravitate around you just to get a thrill
Like walking through the city looking up at skyscrapers 
I got a big smile when I wave at my neighbors
I’m going so big that I don’t even see the haters
Swinging for the fences cuz I’m playing in the majors cuz it’s

Big things
Big chords big notes
Big things
Big words big quotes
Big things
Big dreams big hopes
Big like you looking through a microscope
Big things 
Big house big cars 
Big things
Big Earth big stars 
Big things
Big planet big universe
We get together and converse about 
Big things

When I step in the space
I saturate yeah it’s more than a taste
Travel at light speed it’s more than a pace
Big things with ease and grace I never step in the chase
Travel through the astral planes where things float
Now my mindset is one step ahead of most
I progress the Earth test with new notes
Venture down Venice Boulevard to the coast 
The ocean waves become the singer
Pitango rings bless up my fingers
Sacred stones that reflect the kingdom
Smell that smoke the herbs may linger
The biggest thing is bare feet on the land
Visit the lineage sit with the indigenous fam
More life to the visions at hand
Gratitude for the truth that my life is already so grand with these

Big things
Big chords big notes
Big things
Big words big quotes
Big things
Big dreams big hopes
Big like you looking through a microscope
Big things 
Big house big cars 
Big things
Big Earth big stars 
Big things
Big planet big universe
We get together and converse about 
Big things
