This album was released as a surprise, following the 'surprise drop' format that Charly adopted during his independent phase. Recorded in spontaneous sessions at his studio, 'Random' captures the essence of his most intimate and stripped-down creative process. The title reflects the random nature of the compositions, which include both worked-out tracks and improvisations as well as fragments of previously discarded ideas.
The record features collaborations with his stable band of the era and maintains that mix of rock, ballad, and experimentation that characterizes him. Songs like 'Lluvia' and 'Random' offer a glimpse into the current concerns of a septuagenarian yet still creative Charly. The production is deliberately lo-fi and minimalist, as if it were an intimate demo shared with the most loyal fans.
Although it did not have the massive impact of his classic works, it was very well received by his core group of followers who value all facets of the artist. It marks Charly's most recent phase, where immediacy and creative freedom prevail over the pursuit of technical perfection. It is a valuable document for understanding his current artistic state, far removed from the commercial pressures of the past.
