Listening to “Aquas de León Azul” is an experience of seeing the world differently through the artists’ poetic language and minimalist, primordial soundscapes that are both cosmic and earthy. Kikù Hibino’s synthesizers create an anti-gravitational space, generating monolithic forms, while Ana Paula Santana’s faint vocals and the sound of ceramics pull these forms back to the ground. This tension maintains a mysterious balance throughout the music. Transparent yet opaque, like light yet like rock, this unique art form transcends traditional boundaries, offering an unparalleled auditory journey.
