Edu Comelles - una geografia temporal

This album is the culmination of an ongoing exploration of musical and sonic concepts, including mutation, evolution over time, generative patterns, sampling and re-sampling. Several tracks from the album have been performed, presented, and utilized in various formats, such as concerts,
performances, or installations-either in their entirety or specific sections.

The six tracks represent the distilled essence of a creative process that commenced in 2020, characterized by continual iteration, variation, and the transformation of formless clusters of melodies, harmonies, or mere textures into somewhat finished compositions.

Each musical piece has been a companion to me for an unusually extended period (something it rarely happens in my process). Much like features in a landscape, these tracks have shaped a geography of memories, places, and fleeting moments over an exceptionally prolonged time in my life (with some, like Bancal, tracing back to 2014). Consequently, the personal and emotional weight they carry is significant and necessitates being acknowledged to make room for the new and unexpected.

In Valencian, "una geografia temporal" translates to “a temporary geography."
