Editor's Info:
The young guitarist from Porto, Portugal, makes his decisive career statement as a composer with this album. Every move he did before, trade-marking a jumping rhythmic style of his own, was leading to “Enter the sQUIGG”, a phenomenal treat about rhythm and its relationship with harmony and melody, informed by the many 'musics' of the African-American tradition.
Mané Fernandes studied with Petter Eldh, via RMC (Copenhagen), and through the rhythmic visions of this contrabassist and producer, plus the thorough study of Malcolm Braff's research. developed what he calls “Post-beat Aesthetics”.
This release results directly from both influences, crosses them and mixes Fernandes' musical personality to the pulsatile discoveries made, here and there keeping an ear to other references- for instance, to Flying Lotus.
The music was recorded live and the post-production in the studio was used as a creative tool; all the sound materials having been manipulated and (re)composed with.
An edition on vinyl will come out later on as the natural coice for this work-in-process, which is totally committed to that surface/object. A special gift to all the beat freaks out there.
