This was all played on guitar - the bell-like notes were a product of the tape delay degradation of the TC Electronic Triple Delay and a lot of patience.

I am letting this song to the world on International Women's Day <3
Here are the thoughts from my heart to yours.  They were bubbling in my mind whilst I was recording this piece:

be love supreme
If you blot time and matter, what do you hear?
hearts beating in all hemispheres
If you blot time and matter, what do you feel?
Light and darkness as one
Light is transparent
be the light and open heart
let your heart be out of time and matter
be the universe with no judgement
open arms and caring for each other
becoming a tree that stands strong
be love supreme

Love and Light
Ola

Marco Lucchi & Michael Grunditz - September Is Here Again

Tango with Lions  releases her fourth album entitled “you.me.”. 

“you.me.” was created in Berlin and recorded in Athens, Greece, between September 2021-January 2022, at Lotus studios with producer Vasilis Dokakis.  The nine songs of the album build a tale of reflection on heartbreak and significant life changes, written shortly after the artist’s permanent relocation in Berlin, amid the pandemic.

The lyrics express the need of introspection and of processing the impact of various interactions with different people, time passing and global events. The songs observe, address questions or come to realisations about a different “you”, from the perspective of a different “me” in each tale.
                        
The arrangements are rich in synthesisers, nostalgic bass lines and distinct piano sounds. Some of the songs are built on outgoing beats and instrumentations, other songs are earthly, low-key and acoustic.
                        
Out on LP  and Digital on November 11th via Ιnner Ear.

Το “you.me.” είναι ο τέταρτος δίσκος της Tango with Lions.

Τα εννέα τραγούδια του άλμπουμ αναπολούν συνυπάρξεις με διαφορετικούς ανθρώπους σε διαφορετικό χρόνο και συνθήκες. Η κάθε μια από αυτές τις εννέα ιστορίες, παρατηρεί και διαπιστώνει το πώς με κάθε “you” ξετυλίγεται και ένα διαφορετικό “me”, ένας άλλος εαυτός που χειρίζεται τις καθοριστικές αλλαγές ζωής και τον έρωτα ή τον αποχωρισμό με πολύ διαφορετικό τρόπο στο πέρασμα του χρόνου. 

To “you.me.” ηχογραφήθηκε στην Αθήνα, στο Lotus studios με παραγωγό τον Βασίλη Ντοκάκη.  Οι ενορχηστρώσεις είναι πλούσιες σε synthesisers, νοσταλγικά μπάσα και ξεχωριστούς ήχους πιάνου, ενώ η φωνή εξιστορεί σε πρώτο πλάνο. Κάποια κομμάτια χτίζονται πάνω σε εξωστρεφή beats ενώ άλλα είναι low-key και ακουστικά. 

Κυκλοφορεί σε LP  και Digital Album στις 11 Νοεμβρίου από την Ιnner Ear.

you.me.

Tango with Lions - Glacial

The debut single from Night House + Reid is an 80’s tinged pop banger. 

Orchestral flourishes and analogue synthesisers are juxtaposed with angular vocals and captivating melodies. Put the past behind you and let’s drive!

Having sent birds soaring to No.2 on the ARIA charts ahead of ABBA and Adele in 2021, Songs of Disappearance is back with an album featuring 43 of our most threatened frogs. The title track celebrates the incredible diversity of the Australian soundscape, and highlights what we stand to lose without taking action. Be immersed in a chorus of croaks singing in all corners of the country, from the mountain streams of Far North Queensland, to the caves of the Kimberley and the last remaining wetlands of our urban centres.

A collaboration between the Australian Museum FrogID project, The Bowerbird Collective, Listening Earth and Mervyn Street of Mangkaja Arts, this project, being promoted as part of FrogID Week, shows that Australians will not allow these precious voices to be silenced.

Highlighting the dedication of citizen scientists all over Australia, the majority of recordings on this album are high-quality public recordings of threatened frog species submitted to the national FrogID project. These sounds are complemented by recordings of Critically Endangered frogs contributed by some of our country's leading scientists. The album concludes with the moving calls of several species we have already lost to extinction, as well as a selection of exquisite, meditative, amphibian soundscapes captured by master nature recordist, Andrew Skeoch of Listening Earth.

A long soundscape across Dawn in the Queets River Valley rainforest of the Olympic National Park. Starting in Astronomical Twilight, a small herd of Roosevelt Elk walks in from a distance, though a small forest glade, an away towards the Queets River bed.

Early Autumn rainfall and dropping Maple Leaves are the dominant sounds to begin, their pak-pak-spaks are a reminder that time passes, even in the still quiet of a moss-covered forest.

Highway 101 in less than 12 miles away, and distant traffic is funneled up the Valley, showing the difficulty of escaping human-generated sound. This has been mitigated somewhat with light processing, but close listening and inspection will make remnants evident. There are no other edits or processes committed.

I love the crisp cold air of the rainforests in the fall. Sounds, natural and human generated, carry into the distant. Tucked into my sleeping bag, I lay back in my small tent, listening to the forest awaken. Where once there was just the soft distant wash of the river, the elk are joined by the local birds. Steller's Jays shriek their song with grating-yet-amusing "CHA-CHA-CHA-CHAs". A Northern Saw-whet toots in the forest canopy. Young Varied Thrush practice their songs, not quite reaching the beautiful and haunting signature fluting of their predecessors, instead emitting a silly buzzer-bell-like noise. Pacific Wren singing at the end of their season and the occasional Kingfisher make an appearance as well. Noe of these complete with the sheer vibrance of the elk.

Roosevelt Elk or Roosevelt's Wapiti or Rainforest Elk are the largest remaining elk species in North America and thrive in shadowy silences of the Pacific Northwest's temperate rainforests. Bull's bugles and roars echo through the trees, becoming one of the signature sounds of the Olympic Mountains. The cows mew and squeal in return, listening for one another to not wander far astray.

The small herd is a tight-nit family group, a with one, maybe two, dominant bulls, five or six cows in their harem, and a handful of young. The dominant bull leads the group on a daily hike, down from the upper valley to the river and back again. Their bugles urge the group, both signaling the direction to go and scolding those that dawdle. As they pass through the glade, their heavy footfall on the vegetative floor thump-thump-thumps their presence as much as the vocalizations and the continued crushing of vegetation as they push by.

I can't get enough of their energy. They pull back frequently. No matter how many times I encounter them, Elk never cease to awe me.
