In Tonacatepetl - Coyotzin

Coyotzin is born out of the dreamtime of a musical nagual, a priest of the aquatic
and supernatural sound.
His doing is the pulsation of an old art in the hidden name of matter. In as much, it invokes the work
of sound,he is an etherical entity that posseses and is possesed by the elements and spaceways
of the Universe that are transformed into instruments and helpers of magic.

These narrations that are given to us through his compact discs, these living stories, these retrieved voices that have shape-shifted into animal guardians, are driven into the ear of the listener and help him become a gift of solar wizardry,a musical ally to the sun, magical light, mountains and plants.
That is the main quality of the music and acoustic experience of Coyotzin’s work. Mexican by root and pride, he now belongs to the world. Like his music,he is an acoustic nomad who shares the product of his dreams and his ancestors with diverse cultures. The music that Coyotzin makes is a sacred craft with his drums and flutes made out of clay and vegetal fibers, imaginary stones and sea shell trumpets.

That are the legacy of many cultures and many ages from an ancient Mexico. All those musical beings who accompany him are Coyotzin’s magical family and they help him perpetrate a conspiracy against the rational Universe that surrounds us and bounds us. They offer us the substance, the power and the testimony of the ancestors of their dreamtime in each and every one of his stories.
