San Antonio, link up and grab this record. Support the makers, Diego M. Bernal Ernest Gonzales and support the label, Exponential Records (San Antonio based). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It’s been a few years since civil rights attorney / beatmaker Diego Bernal released any music but it’s hard to find time for music production when you are a councilman for one of the biggest cities in The United States. (District 1, San Antonio, Texas) Feeling the time constraints of his political endeavors, Diego reached out to producer and friend, Ernest Gonzales to help him put an album together. Gonzales said no. But...persistence paid off in the end and the two amigos set out to create an album. From the first track, a theme began to emerge and what started as a dusty, western sounding song, turned into a 9 song concept album that was written to be the soundtrack of an unmade Mexican Western film. The album, Atonement, is a tale of love and loss. It is a story in which the hero finds himself in despair and makes things right again in the end. But that’s not really the ending. The album will be sold on pay a what you want model and 100% of the proceeds will go towards the creation of a non-profit program called SAMPL (San Antonio Music Production Lab) aimed at teaching at-risk youth to produce music.
