The 9 pieces on this album aren’t songs so much as spells. They are brief enchantments that transform the listener’s world—changing the mundane to the mysterious, the trivial to the profound, adding depth to the shadows, and burnishing any faint luster. Víctor Sequí says that these pieces came to him spontaneously, drifting in from “some mysterious place.” Once you hear them—once you’re lulled by their gentle but insistent strains of guitar, accordion, and woodwind—their mysterious origins will make perfect sense. And you’ll find yourself more than willing to accompany them back to wherever, and whenever, that place happens to be.
