Nacho Sotomayor has presented his new album, «Singles,» a compilation of songs that, according to the artist, have already been featured on other albums, but which now, together, take on a new dimension and form a completely new work. Enjoy the music of one of the most renowned artists of the Balearic scene.
Playlist:
1. Confidences
John G. Stratoudakis, a film director from Athens, showed me a series of rather experimental images. This time, my music had to convey intense emotions.
2. Matter in the Sky
The result of connecting two creative processes, the energy of Lika’s voice emerged as a revelation.
3. Out of Focus
Diverse, conflicting, confusing emotions, destined for the listener, a convergence toward untraveled paths.
4. A Better Word Remix
Sacha Fernández had just become a father. We were young and naive. That future is already here…
5. Resurge
Every day you come back to life, then you understand that perhaps the most important thing is to recognize yourself in everything you do.
6. Breathing Remix
When you need music like the air you breathe, that which sustains everything for you, the invisible thread that connects you to the world.
7. Ellipse
We live in ellipses, through cycles that return us to places we’ve already traveled with a different perspective. And music, like life, follows its infinite curve.
8. Lake Como World
How can a place you’ve never been inspire you? Magic and mystery float on the surface of the lake.
8. An Unknown Thing
I read Emily Dickinson’s «Something Unknown,» and harmonies and rhythms emerged immediately, unconsciously, as if someone from far away were directing me.
9. Destino Revisited 1
«Axium Esti» (a religious song widely used in the liturgy of the Greek Orthodox Church) became the axis of meditation, around which these structures revolve.
10. Zero Remix
The blank page, the starting point, the pause between what was and what will be, silence; a return to the simplicity of Zero, to the point of origin. The depths of the abyss that allow us to begin the journey again.
11. Involution
A reflection on processes of transformation in reverse, the echo of a step backward, a slide into a more primitive form of existence. I’m beginning to stop believing in constant progress.
12. Beyond Religion Remix
Since I started composing, I’ve been interested in the intersection between all the world’s music as a result of a single expression. Art and religiosity are interchangeable.
13. Love Theme Remix
I’ve always been a huge fan of Vangelis, especially the «Blade Runner» soundtrack. I dared to do this version simply for the joy of immersing myself in its harmonic textures.
14. Streets of Philadelphia In Love Remix
I renamed this remix «In Love Mix» because the original theme possessed something very particular that emanates from the magic of love.
15. A Single Soul Nude Remix
Kenascental’s voice evoked something akin to the emotion of wailing in me.
