   Music From The Heart Of The Andorran Mou

   Landry Riba (Principality of Andorra, 1975) is an Andorran wildlife   
   veterinarian and bass player. After several years involved in jazz, pop-rock   
   or funk bands, he decided, in early 2013 to start a very personal project   
   mixing mountain's field recordings,    
   classical strings, bass lines and some electronica... The result is a second   
   self-released album called "Tales from behind the mirror" produced and mixed   
   at Overhear Studio in Berlin (Germany) by Federico Albanese and mastered at   
   Störung Studio in    
   Badalona (Spain) by Alex Gámez.   
      
   Some will say it's "soft instrumental music", others will call it "modern   
   classical" or "ambient music"... But it's only music and it's only to make   
   people have a pause in their hurried lives! The main ingredients of the   
   receipt are:   
      
   -Some field recordings performed in the woods, near a river or during a snowy   
   day in the Pyrenean Mountains...   
   -A bass guitar base, giving the harmonic line of the pieces, playing chords or   
   arpeggios   
   -A cello, going on with the melodies, with the help of some piano notes   
   -Some electronic samplers and synths, providing a particular background and   
   blending all the other ingredients together...   
      
   Landry started writing nine new pieces on September 2014 and several months of   
   hard but amazing work after that, this new album is on the street, under the   
   title "Tales from behind the mirror". It's a musical tale about how easy it is   
   to have a different    
   look at everything around us, about the need of having different points of   
   view in any matter. Mirrors can show us hidden corners, they can bring light,   
   they can create new spaces... and that's the way the new tracks were written:   
   searching for light    
   melodies, opened harmonic spaces, and instruments that are repeating the   
   musical message as reflected in a mirror. Even Charlie Chaplin appears in the   
   last track of the album sharing his voice with bass and piano and playing with   
   the reflections!   
      
   The album is distributed via TuneCore and Bandcamp on its digital and CD   
   versions.
