705 - East Cape Breeze

The Mistral, is a strong wind that commonly occurs in southern France, blowing down from the north along the lower Rhône River valley toward the Mediterranean Sea. As the wind reaches the Rhône delta, gusts can often hit speeds of 130 km (about 80 miles) per hour.

This recording was taken from the bedroom window of an old "Mas" (farmhouse) just outside Barbentane (Bouches-du-Rhône) with the mics pointing directly at a Plane tree (platane)at least 250 years old.

Strong "Mistral" Wind - Barbentane, France

"For you, 

Sometimes the best photos are the unexpected ones. What once I could not know in that moment, I know now: all memory is memory of irrevocable loss. Today I'll never know what could have been. Blindly facing all possible pasts, different lives shuffled, shuffled in an afternoon of playing cards. The other side of yesterday, too, is unknown — no less than tomorrow or the next day. In my hand I hold a present and all these lives I have never lived, only this one. Only this once."

Deus ex machina - 25/2/2022 - Makholma Woods

The spring dawn chorus recorded in the heart of the Forêt des Cèdres du Luberon. This cedar forest is one of the most unusual of the forests and green spaces of the Luberon massif, given the oriental origin of these large trees. At an altitude of 727 metres, the cedar forest was originally planted with seeds from the Algerian Middle Atlas back in 1861. Due to it's altitude and distance from major towns and roads, the forest is very quiet and makes for a perfect recording location.

Julian Bohn is a German pianist and producer based in the Netherlands. He creates genre-crossing music for adventurous listeners longing for authenticity and acceptance. His music is carefully created and curated, like a soundtrack for your everyday life. 

Feels Like Home, his upcoming debut album, was crafted in collective solitude of the lockdown and still represents a celebration of collaboration, with an international line-up of 11 musicians from the United States, England, Germany and the Netherlands who recorded in their individual home studios.  The songs are brimming with warmth, while poignantly addressing some of the themes all of us were confronted with last year: loneliness, belonging and having a place to come home to, and fear in the face of a growing climate crisis. At times the music feels wide open, moments later becoming close and intimate, as if the musicians are playing in your living room. You always feel the curiosity and openness of a bandleader that rejects being bound by certain genre lines and prefers to channel his younger self for inspiration, trying to create music that gives him the same exhilarating feeling his music-hungry 17-year-old self got when first falling in love with the craft. 

At the moment he’s putting together a live band to transform the music into a live experience.  As a producer, Julian Bohn is currently working with artists like FRÉ, XILLAN and the Ugandan singer Maurice Kirya.
