Este álbum es una colección de canciones de dormitorio. Todas fueron compuestas entre los años 2004 y 2008 en los tres diferentes dormitorios que habité durante esa franja de mi vida en la ciudad de Vigo.
Las grabaciones también fueron llevadas a cabo en un dormitorio, el que tenía en la calle Llorente entre los meses de abril a diciembre de 2008.
Las composiciones de la primera época (2004-2006), principalmente las instrumentales, son el resultado de la reiterada escucha y análisis profundo del uso de sintetizadores y teclados vintage en los discos de Zero7, Air o Morcheeba.
Las restantes están fuertemente influenciadas por el descubrimiento, en torno a 2005, de bandas como The Radio Dept., Starflyer 59, Athlete, Slowdive o The Six Parts Seven.
Mi incorporación a Nadadora como técnico de sonido en el verano de 2007 fue un factor determinante para decidirme a enlatar definitivamente esta colección de canciones que iban dando tumbos de disco duro en disco duro en forma de vagos bocetos o maquetas primarias.
ENGLISH:
This album is a collection of bedroom-made songs. All of them were written between 2004 and 2008 in the three different bedrooms where I stayed along those years I spent in Vigo.
The recordings also took place inside of a bedroom which was located in a flat in Llorente Street in Vigo. They were taped in a certain period of time between april to december, 2008.
The eldest songs (2004-2006), mainly the instrumental ones, are the result of tireless listening and accurate analysis of vintage keyboard and synthesizer use by bands as Zero7, Air or Morcheeba.
The other ones are strongly influenced by the discovering, around 2005 of bands such as The Radio Dept., Starflyer59, Athlete, Slowdive or The Six Parts Seven.
My incorporation as FOH sound mixer to Nadadora band in summer 2007, was a determining factor for me to encouraging myself into putting this collection of songs 'into a can', which were roaming, for years and years, from a hard drive to another as vaguely drafts or primitive demo recordings.
