“El Retorno de Saturno” ("The Return of Saturn") is an astrological phenomenon that happens between the ages of 27 and 30 when said star returns to the sign and degree of the sky from the moment you were born. As the musician from Alcalá de Guadaira (Sevilla, Spain) Julio Marin is approaching this age group, he found it very inspiring to title the album around this concept that would give some cohesion to the reason for embarking on this adventure.
Leaving it as a "naive" and relaxed inspiration, he has tried to conceive this album around this idea through which he proposes a sound journey through 8 original compositions, which narrate stories of everyday emotions and simple human values, which inspire him to get up every day. day to be a better human being and share his experiences and those of those around him.
Stylistically, he has imagined all this music from a jazz perspective with certain hints of Afro-Cuban influences and a small nod to flamenco (always with the utmost respect for each of these strong musical traditions). As an artist, developing his career in the 21st century, these styles blend and blend in favor of the music, and it is only meant to be a snapshot of what his and his partners have been through this process.
