Respirando a humidade do bosque encantado

 
(trajedesaliva is a Spanish Vigo-based Galician Dark Ambient project  (formed by Mon Ninguén & unavena), teams up with Madrid-born singer and pianist Maud the Moth (Amaya López-Carromero) to create a soundtrack to Remedios's Varo work , a painter born in Spain in 1908, who lived in exile in Mexico until her death in 1963.

Making use of analog synthesizers, an arsenal of acoustic instruments and multifaceted voices, both art projects bring their respective idiosyncrasies to the palette, creating a soundtrack riddled with symbolism and references to the pictorial work of Remedios. Like this work, the musical compositions and arrangements seek to explore associations of the subconscious and exploit the beauty of chance. Many of the instruments used in this album are sensitive to weather conditions or are found objects; pianos or guitars which have fallen out of tune providing notes with which to construct invented scales as if guided by the hand of a mystical Hildegardian god.
 
Finally, unavena's poems serve as a narrative structure, which frames the landscapes and territories sonically traversed).
