Set Sail How we recall, how Emotions imprint in us, the sound of mother Nature, the big City, our Loneliness, our struggles, the Voice that soothe our pain, the Voice that fuels our Dreams, to conquer the Past and reach for the Summit, Our best. to Sail, with Hope, into the Unknown. Figments is an introspective journey depicted through ethereal soundscapes: personal experiences that define us yet result from intimate contemplation that little has to do with objective experience. In concert, mind and surroundings create a new world, where the boundaries between reality and abstraction seem feeble, non-existent. Field recordings make way for subtle ambient layers: a metaphor of the world being absorbed and reinterpreted by our consciousness. What’s left is a path made of memory, experience, feelings that become the compass that guides us through the intricacies of life. Like waves, perpetual melodies break through the veil of reality and force us to look within, question ourselves and what defines us. Figments is a celebration of the inner voice, the one that can shape reality so that we can live within its boundaries while being truly, unquestionably ourselves. About the artist: A "homegrown" of Naviar's community, Constantin Blu, aka DesuExSounds, started producing ambient and soundscapes by picking up the Naviar's Haiku challenge almost four years ago to explore and develop creativity through music as a tool for self-knowledge and interaction. Previously just a passion, Constantin has co-authored musical projects for dance and theatre in the Bucharest scene with friends who have a special home town in common: Onesti. "Figments" is the first ambient solo album that coagulates this journey, reflects the personal bond, and draws inspiration from Naviar's artistic ethos.
