about

This debut album by Euphonikal is a collection of original guitar instrumentals written and performed by Nelson Barbosa in single takes on a nylon string guitar and interwoven with sensitive and intuitive percussion by Ronan Skillen.

The album is titled Contexture - the act, process, or manner of weaving parts into a whole. The title reflects the content of the album, both in the arrangement of the instrumental guitar pieces as well as the musical handshake between the guitar and the percussion. The feel has been described as having a mixture of African, Spanish and Indian influences. The cyclical and melodic "Women's Day" introduces the overall relaxed feel of the album that on occasion ventures into more syncopated energy in a track like "Five point two".

The tracks were recorded by Ronan Skillen at Didgi-taal Studios and mastered by Dave Langemann at Creative Native Studios.
