“This work tells the night of transition of a beloved familiar of mine, on a night in a hospital.
With no dramatic or compassionate intention, I created "La Noche" to amplify our separation and our unitive annihilation, like a song whispered in the ear of the one who goes, and the one who stays. An ode to everything we experience on this loss, and everything that we know stay forever when the body of the beloved is gone.
This song should be heard by night, in absolute darkness with headphones, to obey the sound after initial resistance. It intends to act as the nail that pierced the veil of the mourning, showing the fullness of the non-place, of what was lost.
You are not forced to follow my narrative proposal, but ...:
The first two tracks oppose siamese separated sound extremes and sonic subjectivities. Mine: the aseptic silence on the hospital room, which is also an imminent "final". Hers: the sound of the relentless progression of septic invasion on her body. …show more content…
Finally, when the transition is finished, the window of the next day-with cool air of Genil river-is open. With some melodic nostalgic flying souls to heaven, a past tense of platonic flavor. It was the light of the next day on earth. The only material we have.
I recorded and mixed “La Noche” at La Antena Noética Studio(Almería, Spain), on several nights in autumn 2015, using a theremin and a computer. It was mastered by Dal Verme and
