Murcof is the latest musical project by Tijuana, Mexico-based Fernando Corona. Influenced mainly, but not exclusively, by classical and electronic minimalism, Murcof works primarily with orchestral samples, processing the sound sources into new textures and fusing them with microscopic sounds and rhythms. The end result consists of lush layers of atmosphere and beat-driven landscapes -- a multi-tonal palette that brings to life deep, gray worlds in which an introspective mood always pervades. Conceived at the beginning of 2001, Murcof runs parallel with Terrestre, a musical project of the Nortec collective.
