"Dawn suddenly caught me by surprise, as I was trying to leave the heavy blanket of sleep.
As Birds just opened my ears, the sun lit the peaks of
mountains surrounding the valley where yesterday I fell exhausted.
I do not know why, my head, empty and filled at the same time, brought to my senses memories of when in my childhood, I was announced that next day I will part in my first trip
.
The music that the tribe made to welcome us, said "These are
We, in this way, and we accept you to accept us."
Throughout my day, savoring the memories hidden by my old
brain that were removed from the dust, I realized that while my
Time has passed, the sum of all, has resulted positive in all people who surrounded me in life, and although the end is near (I notice it in the bones) the final ceremony will be to return my broken body to feedback the universe.
And I felt joy. "
“El amanecer me pilló de improviso, por sorpresa, mientras trataba de despejar la pesada manta del sueño.
Apenas los pájaros abrieron mis oídos, el sol iluminó los picos de las montañas que rodeaban el valle donde ayer caí extenuado.
No sé porqué, mi cabeza, tan vacía y llena a la vez, me trajo a los sentidos recuerdos de cuando, en mi niñez, me anunciaron que al día siguiente partiría en mi primer viaje.
La música con la que nos recibió la tribu al llegar, me decía "Estos somos, de esta forma, y te aceptamos para que nos aceptes".
A lo largo de mi día, saboreando estos recuerdos escondidos que mi viejo cerebro ha sacado de entre el polvo, me dí cuenta de que si bien mi tiempo ha pasado, la suma de todo, ha redundado en todos cuanto me han rodeado en la vida, y aunque el final está cerca (lo noto en los huesos), el último acto de entrega será mi cuerpo descompuesto volviendo al universo para volver a realimentarlo.
Y sentí alegría.”

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)
