Birds, insects and gold fever : welcome to Gran Sabana. A vivid landscape betweeen savanah and the Amazonian forest in Venezuela, near the Brazilian border. Noisy animals and a few men, digging the earth for very little gold they will later spend on cock fights. Immerse yourself in another beautiful "sound postcard" by Félix Blume https://soundcloud.com/felixblume
Recorded in 2011 by Félix Blume - Mixed by Arnaud Forest - Produced by http://arteradio.com - Download http://bit.ly/Iq9ksr 
Oiseaux, insectes et chercheurs d'or : bienvenue à Gran Sabana, région naturelle de savane et de forêt amazonienne au Venezuela, près de la frontière brésilienne. Là, parmi les singes et les animaux divers, quelques hommes creusent pour un peu d'or qu'ils perdront ensuite sur les combats de coqs. Une nouvelle carte postale signée Félix Blume, peintre accompli du paysage sonore. https://soundcloud.com/felixblume

Sounds from the Dining Table

„Amygdala“ is Koze’s Sgt. Pepper. It’s an unreal 78-minute walk through Koze’s mind, complete with moods, intensities, sounds and scenes as yet unheard of. It feels more like a double album, urging you to turn over and change the records time and time again. "Amygdala" amazes by its sheer musicality, deepness, and its  ethereal sound design; it’s a kaleidoscope of a great variety of soundscapes where you keep discovering new nuances even after listening to it a thousand times. Nobody else could unite artists like Caribou and Dirk von Lotzow, Hildegard Knef and Mathew Dear, Ada and Milosh in such an organic way and on one and the same record as Koze did. There’s never been anything like it.

He weaves new garments around the a capella parts of his guests, garments that only he can tailor, and that’s how the album, for all the diversity of its artists, sounds consistently homogeneous and in the true style of Kosi Kos. It’s all about “the courage to dare”, about letting voices resonate undisguised in all their authentic peculiarity.  About creating  truthfulness.

How much can you cut out, when does the flame die down? On the other hand, under which circumstances could it even burn for ever?

The album, which in large parts has been composed in a Spanish fishing village, starts off with Balinese gamelan sounds from which a relaxed discoid bass peels off, caressed by mystic backwards basslines, balafon resonances and slide guitar chords. You can hear the ceaseless chirping, twittering and cheeping from all the treetops of Koze's exotic jungle.

Soyuz Docking with Station

Space Station Caution tone – not as bad as Warning or Emergency tones, but still never good news.

IMO my best production yet.  With a small sample from Devotchka's "The Winner Is", I include electronic elements with guitar, & a lot of dreaming.  This track is a Fantasy, a wondering song exploring people's everyday thoughts into the unexpected.
