MP3: Trails and Ways - "Como Te Vas?"
When a question becomes an answer, or when an answer becomes a question, how do you know where it all starts and where it all ends?
You may not believe it -- may not want to believe it -- but one divergent path will always find its way back to where you've been before. Life is a cyclical maze -- in many respects a result our own creation and in many respects a result of fate's will. Take for example the past: it's always going to be there even if it's in your rearview. You may never physically encounter the things you've left behind, but you'll forever carry them around in your heart and mind as experiences and influences for your future self. It's not so much about acceptance in moving on as it is about being receptive to change. And once you learn to navigate these sorts of tides, you'll come to appreciate every moment, good or bad, as something to build upon.
With a lover asking "Como te vas?" ("How are you leaving?") until the question becomes its own answer ("This is how you're going"), Oakland, California's self-described "bossa nova dream pop" quartet Trails and Ways craft a hypnotic, reflective sound that's as enchantingly comfortable as a mirage in the desert heat and as heavy and beautiful as the midnight moon. "Como Te Vas?" is a cut from the band's new 5-song EP, Trilingual, which is out June 11th via Non•Market Records, a community based label out of Oakland.
