why we love this

The fabric of a day, composed in field recordings, piano melodies, mellow textures, and ambient clouds of synths. A beautiful narrative unfolds over pieces that compress and expand fragments of time, almost a reminder of how fluid our experiences in daily life really are.

about the record

"This album was born as a long-lasting sound continuum. It was then cut, stitched together, and reassembled to give shape and restore unity from the fragments, in order to have an album that shows its completeness halfway between the titles and the compositions themselves. Contrary to what it may seem, it is not born from a concept and does not want to be. The titles were chosen in a poetic, almost naïve way, the sounds of these creatures led me to believe that they could be divided into different distinct phases of the day. What I want to communicate with the titles is just what came to mind in a moment of reflection, a very simple thing, that sometimes time passes too quickly, and the moments we spend with our loved ones could always be better, it could have been a beautiful morning, afternoon, evening, or night."
