While we are falling, we feel as if we are floating - or sometimes we unconsciously reject the notion of movement. We only have the notion of our fall when the objects around us freeze, when our speed is alternating - sometimes slower sometimes faster, it’s the change of pace that measures the relativity. As we are falling our sense of orientation mutate as a maze, our perspectives became distorted and multiplied window arises to breathe a new type of air.

Hugo Calcio through a heavenly and ethereal voice guides our fall to a place where objects accompany us. Objects materialized in sound fragments of loose notes, which maintain an insistent rhythm beside us - reverting the sensation of falling to an ascension. It isn’t the direction where we are pulled or projected that defines the fall or a rise, it’s our intention. To Fall by Hugo, guides us to a continuous movement dive.

As Colectivo Casa Amarela says: “With an intimate and reserved approach to contemporary ambient music, Madrid native Hugo Calcio builds a microcosm of memories and projections, a series of short stories on synths and drones, elliptical layers of sound on what makes up each one's identity. As in most narratives, there is room for the abyss but also for catharsis, engulfed in gorgeous shimmering soundscapes and digital sighs.

This is a short EP in its duration but an accurate one in its effect - these are powerful tracks, not easily forgotten. Hard to believe that this young man from Madrid just got here.”

The EP is available on Bandcamp and other platforms.
