Line-up:

Si ya nos parece que el prolífico compositor y guitarrista Ángel Ontalva no nos podría sorprender de su habitual lanzamiento de uno o dos trabajos cada año, con "Twelve Days of Winter", cambia la guitarra por el Mellotron virtual y en tan solo media hora que dura este trabajo, el sonido cambia 100% con un resultado espectacular. La música exploradora y experimental a la que nos tiene acostumbrados, suena aquí más melancólica y ensoñadora, diría que muy sinfónica. Las intervenciones de la guitarra quedan siempre cobijadas por las cortinas del Mellotron.

If it already seems to us that the prolific composer and guitarist Angel Ontalva could not surprise us from his usual release of one or two works every year, with "Twelve Days of Winter", he changes the guitar for the virtual Mellotron and in only half an hour that lasts this work, the sound changes 100% with a spectacular result. The exploratory and experimental music to which we are accustomed, sounds here more melancholic and dreamy. I would say very symphonic. The interventions of the guitar are always sheltered by the curtains of the Mellotron.
