Over the years, as a composer and pianist, I have collected several small audio/musical objects. Some are left-out takes from a final mix and others are small instrumental gestures. Transported from their original context, they acquired a new soul, a new expression.

This record emerges from the assemblage of those objects — developed both electronically and on the piano — into a structure, which can be heard throughout the eight Inner Monologues.

A word of appreciation to the musicians (friends) who allowed me to use their recordings for subsequent manipulation. This record would not be possible without them:

Miguel Moreira - Guitarra
João Mortágua - Saxofone
Miguel Ângelo - Contrabaixo
Mário Costa - Bateria
Diogo Alexandre - Bateria (03 Disrupted Sleep)
