- link in bio -
‘Shaped from fragile, emotionally charged piano motifs that distort, disappear and transform into dense, cinematic textures, ‘CANALS’ is a debut that’s finely matured, the result of years of friendship and growth. Italian artist Vanja Sturno and Montréal-based Belgian-Spanish composer Pablo Geeraert (aka Sanea Ima) have worked together extensively on various projects up until now, but ‘CANALS’ is their first official release as a duo. Having both studied music academically, the pair were eager to work more intuitively, so applied their well-honed set of skills to sound that, instead of fitting into a conceptual box, reflected more personal experiences.’
“It’s an album that’s best absorbed as a whole, a vortex of ritualistic, rhythmic repetitions that Sturno and Geeraert appropriately refer to as “spiral listening”.
All tracks written, performed by @sanea_ima & @vanjasturno

FULLING MAPS
Hi community! We're happy to share our first musical project as FeltWork today!
Fulling Maps is a compilation of our 4 distinct approaches to sound : blending maximalist acousmatic gestures, ambient atonal harmonies, urban soundscapes and distorted electronic swarms.
Similiraties can be found woven into the structures of the works through the stories they tell.
Available on Bandcamp, Nina Protocol and on cassette only.
Enjoy ✨
