Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating on a foundation of miniature, unconventional instrumentation, the Catalan-French multi-instrumentalist composed a strangely alluring acoustic universe. 'El primitivismo' utilizes toy pianos, kazoo, and plastic guitars to recontextualize traditional European folk motifs into minimalist, avant-garde vignettes. The album beautifully highlights his ability to extract profound emotional depth and mystery from deliberately infantile sound sources.
