TheSlowMusicMovement I don't usually go for much piano work but there's something alluring that I can't quite put my finger on with Sergio's work.

about

In a contemplative exploration on solitude, Sergio Díaz De Rojas has delved into a nostalgic state of mind after moving from Peru to Spain, leaving friends and family behind for a new chapter of his life. Various late nights by the piano led to the creation of a softly sorrowful tribute to one of his favourite composers, Fryderyk Chopin.

The project got its title from Sergio’s fascination of old postcards to be found while slowly strolling through a quiet flea market, lending a vivid visual for the wistful sense of (dis)connection apparent in the two pieces. Porcelain, beautifully fragile, has a solemn intensity in its movement, flowing with the grace and concentration of a dancer, easily evoking a sense of lonesome mindfulness. Pomegranate is equally graceful but harbouring a hint of sensuality; it beckons and moves away, slow-burning but relentlessly passionate.

Postcards is available digital and on limited edition 7-inch vinyl, featuring artwork by multidiciplinary designer Ryan Carl.

...The vulnerable centre of this soul-baring release has to be ‘Without You’: a mournfully resigned lament, resonating with intimate longing, through every dynamic expression and every creak of the piano. As gentle as it is, it's this intimacy that has the power to hold the listener in their tracks, awaiting each phrase with bated breath. Full review here: http://bit.ly/2UPCPhg Ambientologist
