"This afternoon, after the break, my mind went to the small, in a vertigo fly that made me smaller and smaller, falling to the
unbearable emptiness between the slits on the floor tiles in
my living room, which in turn became deep canyons filled with
flaked stone, that grew to be the first mountains, worlds
later, until the Silence accompanied my fall in the
space between atoms, and I see it become vibrating strings, that were compacting our world.
They are the invisible part that join us to that we imagine as the real world."
“Esta tarde, tras el descanso, mi mente se fue hacia lo pequeño, en un vuelo de vértigo mientras se hacía cada vez más y más pequeña, cayendo al vacio insoportable que hay entre las rendijas de las baldosas del suelo de mi salón, que a su vez se convertían en profundos cañones rellenos de piedra desmenuzada, y que crecía hasta ser montañas primero, mundos después, hasta que en medio del silencio que acompañaba mi caída en el espacio entre átomos, los vi convertirse en cuerdas que vibraban, y las oí compactando nuestro mundo.
Son la parte invisible que nos une a lo que imaginamos como el mundo real.”

New releases by Manoel Macía always are a sure thing - 100% certainty that you'll get the best of the best symphonic rock with lots of lush guitar and synth arrangements, featuring perpetually flowing melodies and chords, which Manoel Macía is renowned for. It's totally unpredictable what will follow next within a track. If you like this album, try "La noche escalonada" and "Infinito", too - you will be royally pleased. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

Manoel Macía's latest work at the time of this writing is an epic 39-minute instrumental suite, celebrating all of the exquisite sounds that can be created with guitars, mandolins, and synths. This album is restless in the most positive meaning of the word - that is, it never stays for too long with a theme, but moves on perpetually to great new ideas. I recommend to put on your "Anthony Phillips ears" to listen to this music. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

After a couple of splendid progressive rock albums, like "La noche escalonada", "Caos sensible", "Pasajes", and "El olvido", guitar virtuoso Manoel Macía returns once again to the roots of his music: The acoustic guitar. A quite different sound, reminiscent of Anthony Phillips' acoustic albums - but still the same kind of musical offering, featuring Manoel Macía's trademark way of writing - with infinite melody lines, and chord progressions continuously proceeding in unexpected ways.
