Tape music version, composed in the composer’s studio.

This work has been composed with very diverse materials: a ships horn, computer generated and vocal sounds, musical boxes, synthetisers and electronic keyboards. The 5 different movements of this work fit into each other through breaks, changes in the sound’s density and sudden articulations.

Huellas entreveradas (Entangled paths), 14’35’’ (2018)

Commissioned by Degem in 2017.

At first, this music was inspired by the wonders of astrophysics and by the mystery of “before the Big Bang” and its first moments of existence. But time going on, the composition transformed itself into a strange “walking along”.
