about

This one is an Onda Nueva tune (a contemporary folk-fusion Venezuelan musical genre), but its theme and structure does not have the same song-like properties known to the genre. Also it's a totally foreign lyricism to the style. We may not know it's origin, but is a casual visitor, dressed up with new clothes, telling its pains on new lands. It claims (the tune) that the parts of its own being are in conflict but still work together. Perhaps a newborn dimension is on its way to become a unified hope. At least that is what it seems want. That’s why it insists at length on those same parts, which are slightly different every time they appear, but are just the same. I call it ostinati variations of an endless, merciless joy.
