Klaus Veen - Without You

Klaus Veen - Cosmos

This is the very first time Funky DL has ever produced and released an instrumental album based on music that he has never recorded any vocals for. The 10 tracks encapsulate the vibe and energy of the many places in Japan and this album is a perfect representation of the serenity absorbed through the nights of chilling, dining, entertaining and relaxing in one of the greatest countries in the world… “Nippon” (Japan)

The Nights in Nippon Jazzstrumental Album (N.I.N.J.A.) is the perfect audio backdrop for late night car cruising or open window chilling, releasing a sense of calm and contentment for any avid and discernable listener.

We are delighted to present a collection of ten laid-back tracks, composed and produced by the young talented Norwegian artist Night Sky, also known as Afternova. In the making for more than three years, this album showcases many different musical styles: from a classical orchestra, to the typical sounds from South American countries, to ambient and relaxing pieces.

The release starts off with "Summer Wind". The flutes and the guitar are the main elements that create an enchanting atmosphere, supported by warm and lush pads. Beginning with a few melancholic notes, the song quickly evolves towards a joyful melody.

Next up is "Visions", the track that gives the title to the album. The piano, soon joined by a violin and harmonious pads, build up into a catchy and memorable theme.

Then comes "Reminiscence", a lovely tune where the piano, combined with strings and soft choirs, takes us on a short but blissful escapade.

With "A New Way", Night Sky proposes a very majestic piece played by a symphonic orchestra: powerful strings, winds, and brass instruments convey a strong victorious feeling up to the very last notes.

"A Happy Moment" releases a deep amount of joy and well-being. Starting with a solo flute, and followed by very melodious strings, this song plays around subtle modulations that keep inducing positive emotions.

"Lost Without You" is an exploration through feelings; its overall melancholic atmosphere topped up by beautiful strings will certainly help you through your darkest times.

"Take A Look Around" is a unique string composition that fills us with a delightful blend between positive and less positive feelings.

Night Sky's "Friendliness" is another short but intense orchestral composition. With its elegant solo violins and its wonderful piano lines, Night Sky takes us once again on an unforgettable journey.

"Falling Snow" offers a deep and soulful orchestral composition that contains a beautifully arranged strings section. Together with delicate chords, this string piece will surely affect your deepest emotions.

The next piece, "Never Forget", shows once more Night Sky's talent. The voices and strings combined with a powerful and intense rhythm will bring the listener on another emotional journey.

Night Sky makes an excellent debut on Abora Chillout with "Visions", a masterful orchestral album that provides a wonderful journey through emotions and sensations. Afternova's new alias hasn't finished to impress us, and will surely provide numerous quality compositions to our label.

Context:

Asleep, dreaming, on a wintry night in 2011, bundled up in the bed of my Brooklyn apartment.

That's when and where I made this song. I remembered the soundtrack to my dream so vividly that when I woke up in the middle of the night, I got out of bed to recreate what was to become the beginnings of "Carlin Dream." It makes me wonder what buried corner of consciousness that melody came from, and why these sort of things come to people while they sleep. This isn't the first time I've dreamed of a melody and turned it into a song later.  I guess it's not totally crazy that we can dream music though: where do melodies come from while we're awake anyway? I'd bet it's the same place. 

As for this piece, I recently stumbled across the original music files and decided to build on that 3am stream of consciousness to finish it here, one year later.
