Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
Also includes a 20+ pages prologue, both in English and Spanish, for the story this concept album will tell // También incluye un prólogo de más de 20 páginas, tanto en Inglés como en Español, de la historia que contará este álbum conceptual.
First of all, hey! I'm Andrés Rivas, a guitarist and composer from Venezuela, and I hope you enjoy my little, and first, contribution to the music world.
After a long delay, these two songs, recorded between 2020 and 2021, are finally released. A small part of a concept album, which tells the story of a man and a woman who find themselves dragged into the machinations of an ancient being, these two songs are here to at least show some of the musical concepts I've been working on while I finally complete the album.
The songs, even though they're instrumentals, tell a piece of the concept's story, but what those pieces tell still isn't ready to be told, not yet.
These past few years have been difficult for everyone, but I believe music can heal and help people in a way few other things can, so I wanted to share what I do, even though it's just a little. Peace!

Primero que nada, ¡hola! Soy Andrés Rivas, un guitarrista y compositor de Venezuela, y espero que disfruten mi pequeña, y primera, contribución al mundo musical.
Luego de un largo retraso, estas dos canciones, que fueron grabadas entre 2020 y 2021, están finalmente disponibles. Una pequeña parte de un álbum conceptual sobre la historia de un hombre y una mujer que son arrastrados por las maquinaciones de un ser antiguo, estas dos canciones están aquí para, como mínimo, mostrar algunos de los conceptos musicales que he estado trabajando mientras completo el álbum.
Las canciones, a pesar de ser instrumentales, cuentan una parte de la historia del concepto, pero lo que esas piezas dicen aún no está listo para ser contado, todavía no.
Estos últimos años han sido difíciles para todos, pero creo que la música puede curar y ayudar a la gente de maneras que muy pocas otras cosas pueden, así que quería compartir lo que hago, aunque sea sólo un poco. ¡Paz!

CHON's just an awesome band! They really blew my mind when I first listened to them and if you haven't, I'd recommend you check them out, and they've released some amazing albums! Umbra Phari
