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.

Luna Monti & Juan Quintero - El Matecito De Las Siete - 07 - Pal Que Se Va

We have noticed one thing over the years of playing shows, meeting artists, exchanging music and having conversations with people all over the world. That we are surrounded by a community of musicians, producers and music lovers which acts as an inspiring, uniting force. For that reason this fourth Shika Shika compilation is called Union or Unión: "the action of joining together or the fact of being joined together".

These are 13 tracks of music without borders, music that unites, music that brings together different styles, rhythms, influences, languages and cultures to create something richer, something fresh, something different. That is how music evolves and has always evolved, uniting sounds and creating something new. 

We are really happy to present lots of artists who are new to the Shika Shika collective alongside some old friends. Hard to categorise so we let the tracks speak for themselves.

We hope you enjoy our homage to unity, thank you for the support and thank you to all the talented artists for sharing their music with us!

This album is the result of several years of professional, internal and spiritual transformation. These internal searches were inextricably synchronized with external searches. A new sound, a new language, a completely different sphere of perception and transmission of material.

The fusion of electronics, downtempo, ethnic music and a state of no-mind in contact with spirit and nature revealed a completely unexpected taste that immerses into a real journey and this is how it is recommended you listen to this album - from the beginning to the end. There are no 'passing' tracks in order to simply 'fill the space'. Each work is a deep and sincere revelation in collaboration with remarkable musicians and vocalists, real professionals in their field.

Sol#m-Re#m-Do#m7
Los años pasan y amenazan al destino,
las rimas casan y se lanzan al vacío,
seré un ejército de frases malsonantes,
para la oreja de la clase dominante.

Quiero empapar de rebeldía 
el corazón de las estrellas,
que la noche se levante 
con sus cara de plebeya
y las farolas se percaten
de la fuerza que destella
y retraídas no se atrevan
a alumbrar su negra huella.

Seré una bomba que reviente mi cerebro,
seré una tromba que me quiebre en mil requiebros,
seré la llama que destruye en vuelo al fénix,
seré la droga que le dio la fuerza a Obélix.

Do#m-Sol#m-Mi-Fa#
Aunque nunca quiero dejar de ser
tu almohada, tu espada, tu adrenalina,
tus ganas de nada, tu hada madrina...

Si-Fa#-Do#m-Mi
Quiero volver a perderme contigo,
allá por los sueños,
sueño con ver al final del camino
la costa anhelada,
anhelo ser único autor de mi sino
y en él tu mirada. Sol#m-Fa#-Mi

Sol#m-Re#m-Do#m7
El cuerpo humano en que rebusco está podrido,
ya que el extremo de una arteria sin fluido
es hoy la pluma de un poeta enamorado
que exprime y dobla su pasión sin resultado.

La voluntad se hace materia
y ahora fluyen mis sentidos,
me transformo en dinosaurio,
diplodocus desmedido,
golpeando incontrolado 
los cristales, los ladrillos,
las condenas, el cemento,
que sepulta mala hierba,
los presidios de las mentes 
que se encuentran siempre en guerra,
los barrotes de los ojos
que no ven cuanto se encierra
tras el pecho de las almas
condenadas a la histeria,
melancólicas, anónimas,
coléricas, gamberras...

Seré la duda maltratando tu sapiencia,
seré un tornado haciendo polvo tu conciencia,
quemé cruelmente a aquel falaz Pepito grillo
reivindicando que pinocho fuese un pillo.

Do#m-Sol#m-Mi-Fa#
Aunque nunca quiero dejar de ser
tu almohada, tu espada, tu adrenalina,
tus ganas de nada, tu hada madrina...

Si-Fa#-Do#m-Mi
Quiero volver a perderme contigo,
allá por los sueños,
sueño con ver al final del camino
la costa anhelada,
anhelo ser único autor de mi sino
y en él tu mirada.

Quiero volver a pisar nuestros pasos
y abrir el sendero,
sendas que entreguen sentido a los años,
segundos etéreos,
éter serán finalmente las manos
de mis sentimientos,
Sol#m-Fa#-Mi
de tus sentimientos,
de los sentimientos,
de nuestro silencio. (Sol#m)
