Federico Durand :: Té De Flores Silvestres (IIKKI)
Appealing and introverted feelings pass over the full album, trembling at the sounding surface with a hazy solemnity. Colorful and warm, the soundscapes are spiritually nurturing; enriched by subtle melodic lines and cultivate a sensation of freedom and lightness.
