This ambient instrumental track has been dedicated to 'carpe carmina celebrates' - it's not its final mix yet but Wolfgang Merx and Roger Palmeri have decided to generously share the instrumental, that is meant to be featured on their forthcoming album 'Still Drones', with us already. 'Dying Breed', as the title implies, puts emphasis on moody, menacing and ethereal electronic elements in contrast to blissfully melodious, melancholic and atmospheric riffage. With a vast and ambient soundscape unfolding, this one is definitely a composition to dwell on.

We owe this ethereal and melodiously languorous, ardently yearning and atmospheric musical contribution to Ali Ingle being outspoken among his peers about the prestigious project that is 'carpe carmina celebrates', i.e. he told Daniel ('Yarbo') about his involvement in the blog's birthday celebration and the singer/songwriter, now backed by a band of three gifted musicians, asked if he could join too. And of course he was invited to make 4 years of musical musings even more special and stunning [oh how he and his pals did!!]

Not only does his warmly inviting voice suit the song perfectly, the mere fact that Dom and Jordan (Calan Mai) are friends does, too. So let's indulge in this charmingly low-key, heartrending rendition of a friend many times and wholeheartedly. 

Celebrate carpe carmina's 6th anniversary with me by having this gem on repeat and by checking on the corresponding article about Dom Major's music on carpecarmina.blogspot.com.

Dom Major - Friend of a Friend(Calan Mai cover)

Latin was my first love, and music is my second. I've utterly fallen for those of the soulful, creative, inspiring and inciting kind. The one composed with heart and soul, the one performed with passion and aplomb. Searching for a way to express my love for and enthusiasm about music, I've found twitter is a decent and effective place to do so, yet given my wordy nature 140 characters one day simply didn't suffice to promote the music I enjoy anymore. This is how my music blog - carpe carmina - came into being (a heartfelt thank-you goes out to my favourite UK band High/Low for the encouragement to start writing about music, to my all time favourite band for so many years by now, Midnight Hour, for making me realize my affection for music and my wish to help those artists in whose talent I believe in, and to all those people who read my blog, who recommend and submit music for it). Find me under @NessiHolt on twitter and make sure to listen to @RadioKC to catch a playlist of mine each tuesday at 10pm (UK). Listen to Radio Kaos Caribou, Dr. Bones music show and Dave Monk's BBC Introducing Merseyside in general. It's worth it, it's where I - among others - find the music I eventually embossom.
