Waves on La Guardia beach, Elba reimagined by Cities and Memory.
"In this reimagined composition, the waves are at the heart, running through its centre and chopped up and timed so they undulate in time with the bassline. The guitars and synths are the sparkling crests of the waves as they wash over the rocks from where the recording was made. This composition evokes the feeling of what it was like to enjoy this idyllic space on a quiet August day."
The title comes from the wonderful Pablo Neruda poem:
"There where the waves shatter on the restless rocks the clear light bursts and enacts its rose, and the sea-circle shrinks to a cluster of buds, to one drop of blue salt, falling.
O bright magnolia bursting in the foam, magnetic transient whose death blooms and vanishes--being, nothingness--forever: broken salt, dazzling lurch of the sea."
