Well, I guess I'd have to say sorry to higaru. Somehow i forgot to put Red Slippers into this years experiment. The bonus is that i guess i missed the last 2 tracks first time around & i'm reminded what a great track Fly Tape for Thoughts is. I suppose we're paypals now and i'm happy to donate what i can. I'm going to check out The Guardians and replace some of my favourite free tracks, but i don't know if these old ears can tell the difference between an mp3 and all those other kinds. I don't like listening with head/earphones but i do try to listen with an open window nearby. Could be one of the reasons i enjoy listening to your music so much.
-thanks (for those info pages too)
Ps After the gardens done i'll have lots of time to figure out how to add that track album artwork to the itunes. (he says hopefully)
PPs I just noticed that itunes already displays the proper track artwork in the little picture on the title bar. Learn something everyday.
Something in you runs
on a burning roof with fine sand,
somewhere,
in Zimbabwe.
Someone in you plays
an intriguing instrument,
continuous drinking song.
Take the path of the forest
with black Pan,
with black Bacchus,
The source is near !
and a good mix for you (made by Qewza aka Toma Carnagiu), to discover electroacoustic, drones + field recordings, cinematic + experimental "made in Romania" !
A short film by Alexandra Girbea
with: Alexandra Girbea, Laura Colomban, Razvan Rotaru
camera: Mihai Dragomir and Marieke Helmus
Sound: Makunouchi Bento
@higaru - really enjoyed that, both the film and the music. Was the film made first and the music written to accompany it, or was the motion in the film responding to the music? Film and music went together very well.
So, as of today, you can download our entire discography (13 years of work, 2001-2013) from Bandcamp, for free / donationware!
3 albums, 17 EPs and 3 collections (singles, compilation tracks and experiments), that is.
When you download something, also check the 3 recommendations (2 EPs hosted on different Bandcamp profiles, and a collaboration with Selfmademusic).
Enjoy our music, and many thanks if you consider sharing it with your friends - merry all that!
From Valentin Toma of the Bento boys on Soundcloud: - "Vladimir Cosma is 74 years old today. Probably the best Romanian film score composer (even if he moved to Paris in '63), I like to call him the Romanian Morricone - he has scored over 300 movies. Somehow though, people don't know or post much about him and his great music. When an artist dies, the Internet is full of tributes, but no one seems to celebrate the living and active artists as they should. So happy birthday Mr. Cosma, here's a mix of music anyone should listen to!"
- an excellent mix of a composer previously unknown to me. Thank you very much.
What we have here is new, a Bandcamp Goodie and free ( for an email) , so the dilemma is where to post it ?
- Well, since it includes Daniel Dorobantu, I will post it here:
