@Brighternow I gave that "Go Seigen" Nonsemble album a listen. There are moments on it I really like, but too many moments that shattered my enjoyment.
0 is a french band directed by Stéphane Garin (percussion), Joël Merah (acoustic guitar) and Sylvain Chauveau (acoustic guitar, glockenspiel), whose line-up can change for each project with the addition of regular guests. The trio of Merah, Garin and Chauveau have spend two years composing, recording and mixing the seven pieces of the Soñando album (dreaming in Spanish).This chamber folk suite is entirely played with acoustic instruments (guitar, glockenspiel) and small pieces of metal collected by Stéphane Garin for their special sound and tuning. In quiet spaces, this repertoire can even be performed without any microphone or amplification. The result looks like an original mix of rhythmic patterns assembled togetehr like the pieces of a puzzle.
Le Motel - Oka
OKA, which means “listen” in Bayaka language, is a metaphorical journey between various worldwide tribes. Starting and closing with a lullaby from a mother to her child, the 9 tracks depict a day of passing by rain dances, odes to forest spirits and water, child’s plays, dugout canoe trips, hunting and gathering songs and vodun ceremonies... This project brings ethnic sounds from different communities out of Africa, the Caribbean, Oceania and electronics together and combines worldwide atmospheres, blending current sonorities and ancient samples. Le Motel spent years collecting samples from all around the world (mostly ethnic music related to ceremonies), field recording from the jungle as well as utilising sounds from his own environment. He aims to connect those different cultures and periods within his music.
Two good recommendations, many thanks. The first is available for cheap on Emu over here in Poundland the second is NYOP on 'Camp.
Chamber jazz with Quinsin Nachoff (tenor & soprano saxophones), John Taylor (piano,
Ernst Reijseger (cello), Nathalie Bonin (violin) and Pamela Attariwala
(violin).
Nachoff has a new album out next month, different kind of sound (according to the one-sheet) and with a line-up of David Binney, Matt Mitchell and Kenny Wollesen. Listening to that next.
