An intriguing journey through a beautiful forest.  This is the first collaboration that VictorYbril (Spain - soundscape) and MATJAMI (the Netherlands - percussion and gong drones) have produced via Soundcloud and We Transfer. Play not so loud over big speakers or a good headphone, otherwise you'll miss the heart beat...
Please also check our prelude "Sleeping Sun - VMM-Style"
 
Victor first created the soothing and mysterious sounds , and also painted the cover illustration after we finished the recordings. MATJAMI brought in the high-toned metal beacon sound, and then added the heart beat on the deep bass drum and the rythm on the Balinese kempli. Finally, we added the fast clicking sounds of the bat in the background (courtesy and permission of Fintan O'Brien, a brilliant and inspiring field recording specialist also on Soundcloud).
Enjoy, relax, meander with the flow of the river.

Noise patterns of cosmic fractals entwined as interdimensional verse of microscopic macro expression of planetary intergalactic energies within subjective space.

John passed away on Sunday, April 12, 2020. He was always effusive about his love for this community and all of you who supported him. I will be maintaining his account and any proceeds from his music will be donated to the Jazz Foundation of America.

From Chicago, lifetime striving to play jazz piano, involved in electronic music since getting ARP 2600 in 70's. More recently also drawn to ambient music. Lucky to be on the northern California coast playing steady piano gigs and now making soundscapes of this time and place.

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.
