Lost Cello (Excerpt)

Trascendence

From the upcoming album "Attic Story", this track "A Doll's Ballet", depicts the Ballet dance of an abandoned doll yearning for the days when she was loved and cared for. On the floorboards of the attic and in her ragged state, her padded feet gracefully embraces the ground beneath her in an eloquent display of nostalgia.

TIP THE ARTIST

constellada takes you on a journey through universes filled with swelling synths and surging basslines, washed over in deep shades of blue. Enter SPACES, his debut album that detaches entirely from reality. No need for Stargazing – simply flow through an entirely new orbit... With influences of r&b-infused lo-fi, dancepop and chillwave, SPACES is an out-of-body experience that will lead you through the depths of space as you rediscover yourself among these sounds.

SPACES

Stargazing

From the upcoming album Attic Story, this track "A Game Of Cat And Mouse", is a playful display of 'hide and seek', and 'catch me if you can' between two friends, Cat and Mouse.

A Game Of Cat And Mouse

The Exorcism is a depiction of a struggle between a demon-possessed child and two priests, fighting for the child's salvation. The story starts midway with the demon clinging on to its host's soul. The following segments of the track depict the brief moments when the priests seem to gain the upper hand, not long before the possessor makes a final attempt at regaining the child's soul. The final segment portrays the priests' final rituals with God being the victor - It Is Finished!

My personal approach to this great classic

THE WIND (Cat Stevens)

Walking by four-note chords.

This work can be considered a continuation (or a second track of the same album) of one of my previous works "Parsimonious Trichords".
This is the case since in the elaboration of its harmonies I have followed the same line of work but taking one more step in the current work. In the harmony of the two works I have used the Tonnetz. This comes from the German term "Tonnetzwerk" which means network of tones. The prototypical case is the one that is formed by the major and minor chords (of three notes) organized in such a way that those that are contiguous only differ by a single note (with only a semitone or tone of difference) and on this network we can go chaining the chords following different itineraries or paths thus defining the harmonic progression. In the work "Parsimonious Trichords" I used this Tonnetz with three-note chords. The present work tries to go a step further and use four-note chords to define the Tonnetz. To achieve this I have applied the ideas developed by Dmitri Tymoczko in his excellent article "The Generalized Tonnetz" (dmitri.mycpanel.princeton.edu/tonnetzes.pdf). The objective will be the same: to get a network that organizes the chords (in this case of four notes) in such a way that those that are contiguous continue to be differentiated by a single note. In this case, to achieve this, it is necessary to use 12 chords of dominant seventh, 12 chords of half-diminished seventh, 12 chords of minor seventh and 6 chords of French sixth. To achieve To achieve the harmonic progression, on this network of chords I have defined 7 itineraries (one for each part of the work) of the so-called Hamiltonians, which means that they go through all 42 Tonnetz chords once and only once. As can be assumed, the chord succession that is achieved is also very parsimonious in the sense that there is very little variation between a chord and the one that follows it.

The work of creating the Tonnetz of four-note chords and as well as the elaboration of the itineraries I have done it by programming a series of algorithms in Python language.

Regarding the rhythmic aspect of the work, I have used an archetype: the rhythmic "motif of the walker" (half, quarter, quarter) for two reasons: one, which is quite evident, to reinforce the concept of itinerary or path and the other as a small tribute to the recently published book "Paisajes del Romanticismo musical" by the composer and theorist Benet Casablancas since it is one of the many characteristics that he analyzes about the music of the Romantic period.

For all these reasons, the exhaustive title of this work could have been "Walking through the Hamiltonian itineraries of the graph (of minimal variation) of four-note chords." which I have not dared to use for obvious reasons.

Regarding the interpretation, it should be said that it is done through NotePerformer playback engine.

Never quit, never stop pushing....

KEEEP PUSHING

And here we go
As we stand looking for today and find we´re yesterday
You´ll see that tomorrow is gone
You´ll think that life is an open book
But you´re wrong if you don´t give love
Never think your game is over
Just keep pushing for love
Each ending is a new beginning
To keep roaming with your dreams

Life is just a long moment
To show if you´ve deserved it
And become a memory of love
Of the global dream

Keep roaming your dreams
Keep roaming love
Just keep pushing

Roaming dreams
Roaming love
Keep pushing along

If I only had the wisdom
To accept every day in the long moment of life
I would then become part of the global dream
Never think your time is over
Just keep pushing for love
Every day is a new beginning
To keep roaming with your dreams
To keep roaming with your love

Roaming dreams
Roaming love
Just keep pushing

KEEP PUSHING (Alfonso Llorente Sardi)
