Senderflos The Eyes

THE EYES is the meeting of three musicians whose culture and listenings are spread through the twenty years among their respective ages.
All tracks are improvised. Improvisation is valued for its expressive potential, often rough, always genuine and effective. It allows to imagine obscure and manifold worlds and to make them real through a non evident and never fully disclosed complexity.

The intention behind this album was to open doors and windows to fortuities and mistakes as we think true identity can be generated by their acceptation and genuine imperfection.
We lift our hands to the result.
THE EYES is just the sight on a world seen through curious eyes.

“On the conceptual point of view, we wanted to give value to the materic content contained in our music.
We were interested in going deep in the process which is behind sounds generated by self made instruments played in real time and through improvisation.

“The Eyes” has originated by a two days fully improvised studio session which created thirty tracks for a total of eight hours of music.
The week following the recording sessions we’ve been working on the album concept, defining its feeling and message.

The following editing has brought us to 10 different tracks for 60 minutes total time. On this result we’ve been developing the electronic production and sound templates.
Before the mixing sessions we’ve observed a two weeks break for the work, gaining the useful distance from it.

Mixing went through 5 days, spent on a Solid State Logic G Series analog desk, all tracks were bounced to 2 inches tape machine on two tracks
Ritmo&Blu is a great studio for mixing, its rich assortment of analogue outboard has allowed the songs to gain a psychedelic and circular portamento and mood.

At the end of the mixing sessions we’ve realized 10 tracks were just too many.
Our interest was not to reach a certain length in time, we were aiming it to have a sense from start to end. We wanted it to offer the listener the chance of being brought through a journey into which let himself go.
We thought that taking four tracks out of the original tracking list could help us on this.
Once the album identity was clear for all of us, we’ve mastered it to tape through analogue outboard.
This is some of what is behind “The Eyes”.” SenderFlos
