this is brilliant..reminds me of the soundtrack to the movie Moon

The third collaboration in 2015 between Victor Yibril (Spain - soundscape and drone sounds) and MATJAMI (Netherlands -  percussion, gongs, heart beats and bells). 
'Osmanthus' is an exquisite fragrance from a flower found on the hills of the Himalaya, and this inspired Victor for both sound- and cover-art. MATJAMI cannot help but use big, heavy gongs and concert drums to capture the heart beat of this composition, so again you need good speakers or better headphones to hear that properly. 
We hope you enjoy, like and repost!

MATJAMI and VictorYibril - Osmanthus Dream

MATJAMI: Acoustic-electronic soundscapes, deep beats, slow trance, empty space: meditation by listening and playing. 
Tip: Use good speakers or headphones to enjoy the rich, deep sounds and binaural recordings.

We three at MATJAMI (Marcel Bode, Tjalling de Leeuw, Mike de Leeuw) develop our sounds and grooves as we interact live, using our bronze, wooden and stringed instruments, (Balinese gamelan & gongs, bowls, Tibetan horns, Chinese guxing & gongs, Javanese kendang drums, timpani, beer bottles) with Native electronics, samples and live loops. The quality and the texture of our sounds are at least as important as the composition. 
We play our sessions 'on the fly', where one of us starts and the rest comes in at leisure... All you hear here was recorded live, with only some simple stereo and eq mixing afterwards.
We love to perform in open areas, theaters, level stage, and spaces with a special feel to them; a small audience is just as nice.
Recently we started collaborating with other audio-artists like VictorYibril, Fintan O'Brien and Phlip Smith (G.A.), Miraela, and Augenmerk, combining their very different music styles, field recordings and soundscapes with our beats and sounds.
