Eugenia by Emiliano Ortiz (New York, New York) *
Digging up Emiliano Ortiz as a person reveals a far more interesting phenomena, that inevitably pours its way into his music. Emiliano is part of a modern breed of freelance designer/jack-of-all-trades workforce that struggles to find support in a corporate landscape. His website, like many alike him, shows true passion and natural talent for art as a spherical lifestyle. And it’s from this constant immersion that Eugenia, a beautiful Sufjan-like, but not at all, record emerges in symphonic splendor. Love is clearly the topic, in all its ups and downs (or maybe just its downs) and he wears it on his sleeve. Paired with a structural stance so rigorous, you could call it formal, Emiliano Ortiz deserves more than this little blog can offer. Dingus
