  • Summary

  • "How to intensify the chaos, courage, hope, broken life stories, action, deep sorrow, and erratic joy contained in the original soundscape? I decided not to intervene temporally. What you hear is what happened in real-time. There are modulations of rhythm and frequency, which give way to a line of three violins and a cello, a piano, and synthesized basses that seek depth and edge.

    "Working on this piece truly immersed me emotionally. I try to make the listener travel with me to observe and reflect on this authentic drama, which unfortunately keeps repeating. There are many levels of uncertainty in an immigrant's life. I myself am an Argentine oscillating between Eastern Europe and the west of the continent. But nothing compared undoubtedly, to this.

    "The nightmare experienced by these souls seeking to escape extreme suffering finds a balance in the bravery of the rescue teams, allowing belief in the solidarity fibers of the human being.

    ""Tidett" means faith in Berber, Nafusi, and Tamazight, probably a word that motivated these people to the adventure of saving their lives in an overloaded inflatable boat. Perhaps the same faith that led the rescuers to meet them."

    Ocean Viking rescue recording reimagined by Cristian Estrella.
