That happened down Las Ramblas in Barcelona at Eufonic Urbà Festival. Since then an awkward silence expanded till today. In between a certain amount of live recordings, studio sessions and infinite mixes wait in line as orphans the endless hesitancy. During this long period those files have become a burden, witnesses of the absence of bearing of a project apparently way to easy to re-write. Those files were unresolved issues, segments of an exhausting period of real time composition and production that ultimately lead to a crossroad with far too many options. Awkwardness followed more awkwardness and many attempts of restarting the project happened. The effort was to big and the laziness of confron...

Paco Rossique I The colors are erased in the words that name them. The music becomes fossilized in a shadow when scored. II I am a shadow. I am a shadow that watches me when I sleep. I am a shadow that crushes the distance strolling through the walls and I stare. I'm slower than you, I am a shadow, but I try to touch you and i only get a sound whisper in your ears . III The world is a large living museum in which we, angels, statues and costumes, walk bitten by the shadow of the silence.

However, his shadow is immortal. VI Concerts ...

This comes in hand with uncertainty, a feeling of stepping into the unknown, into the dark (or light?). When I asked Adrià Bofarull to write some notes on “fireworks” I came across a wide variety of forms of intuition and tons of unknown, a set of random thoughts that, all together, made sense. Reading the notes, one realize that Bofarull is building a complex scaffolding system to keep away the feeling of getting lost into this “unknown”. It seems that all those rules, and games he applies to the process of making music are just there to avoid being sucked by the wormhole of wilderness. Even though he’s already in the deep wilderness (as you can listen). Bofarull tells m...
