“Wetland” started as a site specific audio visual Performance for Eufonic Festival. Most of it was composed in the Ebro Delta (a nature reserve that’s one of the most climate change threatened environments in the Iberian Peninsula) on September 2019.
Since then it’s been performed live in different venues and it has evolved to become an hour long audio visual piece, and an Album.
Source material includes field recordings and video footage captured throughout the Eufònic/LoPati Residency, field recordings from a canal boat in London, modular synthesizer compositions and footage from the Mediterranean Sea (Menorca, Spain).
The production of this album has been approached with an ecological mindset, using the best local resources for its representation into a physical object to be as harmless as possible to the environment.

As magical as it it visceral. Deep and deeply appreciated. Healing and revelatory. My praise could not be more hyperbolic. The AI blurb is completely on point. Seek out his work on Denovali + releases under his other monikers. holobiont
