Description

green vinyl version - Murcof’s first three albums are to be reissued on vinyl to mark the 20th anniversary of the release of his seminal debut album, Martes. Out of print for many years, these albums have been hugely influential in the minimal and ambient electronic worlds in their use of modern classical instrumentation, and are significant landmarks in the history of The Leaf Label.

Sometimes a minimalist approach can wield a grand outcome. Such is the case for Mexican born Murcof, the recording alias of Fernando Corona, and his atmospheric electronica release Remembranza. Through the usage of sampling, glitchy percussion, and traditionally orchestrated strings Corona accentuates this to its full extent. Much of the record is a timeless journey, drawing periods of near silence out among arythmic space with dark, ambient piano accompaniments in considerably low and dissonant registers. In this regard, the absence of extensive elaboration exudes the sense of pensive tension and feels almost like a symbolic representation of contemplation itself, seemingly leading one's wandering thoughts along with each subtle swelling. Deeply relaxing and silently intense, the seamlessness of the listen can easily captivate the attention and navigate the mind without commanding it to do so.
