about

XVIII Major Arcana

"I have always been fascinated by the tarot, and wondered several times how it was possible from a set of symbols to be able to intuit and see beyond the curtain that is space time, is this concept that I feel belongs to this set of songs or Sounds, this is not the first time anyone has used the concept of tarot to name or label a musical ideology.
I can't deny that I was inspired by Ruth White - 7 Trumps From The Tarot Cards ... I tried to complete her concept.
I almost managed to reach the twenty-two major arcana in a spontaneously “West Coast Synthesis” style and would say sometimes in a mediumistic way; the pieces that I present each originated from a different patch created manually on a small modular synthesizer that well represents the concept of microcosms.
Since from that small pandora box come things in a generative way like cosmic archetypes;
I hope you can understand the dynamics and the relationship that exists between this set of pieces and the very symbolism that each sound has in relation to the card that represents because ... were the songs themselves to choose pickup the cards."
