(aura) é um projecto do músico e produtor Português André Fernandes, que está ligado à criação de música original para cinema e televisão. Este projecto musical é uma entidade multi-existencial onde a fusão entre vários géneros e emoções se desenrolam num espectro experimental de liberdade total. O álbum de estreia invisible landscape, é um trabalho conceptual que explora o imaginário do trabalho fotográfico de José Ramos, conhecido membro deste fórum. Para este projecto foram escolhidas dez fotografias do referido autor cuja ordem cronológica serve de cenário para dez músicas (capítulos) que se mascaram de banda sonora imaginária que insere uma nova dimensão há já riqueza das imagens. Deste modo cada receptor é convidado a traçar o seu guião a partir da música e dos cenários.
Depois de ter tido um lançamento limitado em formato digital, pela Abutre Netlabel, em 2008, este álbum será lançado (CD) em Abril de 2010 pela conceituado editora Romena de música experimental/ avantgarde Valse Sinistre, que conta com artistas nas suas fileiras como Deep-pression, Isa, Hypomanie, Funeral Veil, Bardo, Landscape, etc.
Um segundo álbum - a sair também pela Valse Sinistre - será gravado ainda este ano.
O álbum encontra-se para pré-audição no website Last FM, assim como as fotos.

http://joaonvno2009....-landscape.html
The fruit of their extraordinary collaboration is an unexpected mix of electronica, ambient and post-rock. It can be wavy, trickling, with a few field-recording touches, or going elegant along with classical violin, flute and keyboards, also counteracted by short harsh riffs, sparse natural percussion or drum machine...
