"This album with experimental musician Igor Jovanovic, the mythically prolific Lezet, was a way I found to express and transcend a common pain. I'd rather not wanting to comment on the political breakdown that my country has been suffering, much less on how much the country of Lezet has suffered. "Renegade Music" ("Música Renegada" in English) deals with more individual pains. Perhaps, even, about the situation of being outcasts in the world of musical commercialism and too human to resort to easy gimmicks. The title is a parody of György Ligeti's "Musica Ricercata", and the music is the result of a sound collaboration that is both plural - since each of us makes use of our multi-instrumentalism - and singular - by opting for a more chamber music and economical approach. It is a music that does not intend to be purely and exclusively closed, proposing structural and interpretation openings. In the end, all this is just the result of our spontaneity and joy in finally establishing a common sound project." (George)
