release notes:
Perhaps most known for his lucha libre guise as Mexicans
With Guns, San Antonio's Ernest Gonzales wears many masks. A
middle school technology teacher, record label owner,
husband, and father of two, Gonzales doesn't buckle under
the weight of multiple personae. Rather, EG draws
inspiration from his multifaceted background, producing a
diverse swath of sounds covering various states of
introspection, of which low-end bass only tells a fraction
of his story.
Gonzales' 2010 album and art book, 'Been Meaning To Tell
You', channeled the tensions of being away from from his
wife, Devyn, during winter's numbest and loneliest months,
emerging as an opus for trust, love and dedication. Having
remixed A Sunny Day In Glasgow, Regina, 'Natural Traits' is
the latest EG creation, an LP that blends Gonzales' gift for
melodic songwriting with his understanding of electronic
craftsmanship.
Carefully composed of vivid rhythms, emotive melodies and
aerial harmonies, 'Natural Traits' blurs the lines between
analogue and digital worlds. Free of samples, Gonzales
juxtaposes live instrumentation with classic electronic
tropes to produce tracks that float, flit, bump, and pulse
with grace and subdued movement.
Tracks like "Peaks & Valleys", "Beneath the Surface", and
"In The End" highlight EG's ambient side with swirls of
trilling guitar chords, painting an analogue soundscape of
'natural' emotion and sincere serenity.
Others, like "The Heroic Lives of Particles" and "The
Scattered Thoughts of Raindrops", bumble with digital angst
and glitchy disquietude, venturing deep into the
technological world and casting a shadow of electronic
mystique.
"When Synchronicity Prevails" represents perhaps the
perfect balance of polarities, with luscious synth waves and
delicate guitar lines materializing halfway through with a
four-on-the-floor rhythm of tactile texture that round out
its ethereal feel.
Let go and lock into EG's colorful collection of romantic
rhythms and grooves on 'Natural Traits'.
Notes: sorry, we used wrong encoder settings!
