Born from a profound devotion to the piano and a reverence for the organic flow of life, byt' surprises listeners by presenting Paths Of Sand, a remarkable creation by Amsterdam-based composer xico, o?ering sound and soul to those willing to listen beyond the surface. Through the magic of experimentation, xico captured the fleeting beauty of the muse of improvisation, as described by Nachmakovich, transforming the ephemeral into something lasting. Performances recorded on the same old piano during the 2023 Kaalstaart Festival in the Netherlands have since evolved into a fully realized work. A journey of nearly three years of dedicated silence that began with Telva's intuitive recognition of xico's voice, starting with an invitation to her radio show and blossoming into a captivating fascination with what unfolded. This process led to the art of shaping the selected live recordings into a collector's item, now materialized as a limited edition of 200 pressed vinyl copies, forever remaining as an artistic memento. Perfectly attuned to the energy of the autumn equinox, Paths Of Sand unfolds as an intimate reflection of music's ability to hold what cannot be held, to speak what cannot be said, and to embody what can never be described. Xico is a sound artist and improviser from Ibiza whose work explores the merging point between disruptive and post-natural soundscapes, crafting immersive sonic environments through compositions that unfold like ecosystems. Encouraged by an understanding of chance as nature's and awareness' most accessible voice, he focuses on creating generative live-sets with varying degrees of unpredictability. For him, subordinating human intention to nature's order is a conscious choice, and making art through this lens becomes a statement and a spiritual practice. With his distinctive touch, his compositions resonate with the world in unexpected and profound ways, o?ering experiences you may never have heard before.
