about

"The Ritual of Initiation Vol.1 is the expression of the growth I have been thru as an artist and as human being. It stems from the dedication and commitment to taking people on a journey thru themselves. To create the music that’s emanating from me, to let it guide me and express itself using me as its vessel. It will take you on a genre defying trip, combining the best of both worlds, light and dark, modern and retro inspired. Close your eyes, let yourself be guided thru the sonic landscape.
This is the first Volume of the 3 part series which will showcase the different facets of this project.
The Trance Dance Ritual was written in early 2018 and was the first “oficial” NAACAL track. It was the culmination of years of listening, learning and experimenting and it was the moment I realised I can actually express what I want. It will forever be a special one for me. Massive thank you to Ed Mondo for enduring the countless hours of hearing this track come to fruition and the constant input and reaction to what was happening.
We are the Ones was written in November 2018 and it was the closure of an era. I remember an huge sense of empowerment and accomplishment while writing it, and ended up stumbling into a video that captured exactly what I had in mind! So massive thank you to Anthony Coyne for the inspiration and for letting me turn your expression into mine.
Both tracks are heavily influenced by the modern sounds I grow up listening together with the retro sounds that shaped me in the last 5 years, and they showcase the last couple of years of work and are quite different than the work I am working now.
And finally, want to thank Fernando Rodrigues for helping me get to grips with this incredible craft, for encouraging me never to take the easy way out and to stay true to myself as a human being and as an artist. For being the biggest example I have of what id strive to become, and for always being there for whatever it may be. Without you this Ep would not exist! Emerge yourself in this world and let it take you on a ride." - Naacal
