The Free Music foundation consists of a truly international cast:
Ullip from Germany/Spain on Drums/Percussion
Mark Hewins from England (Margate) on guitar : Mark looks back on a really varied musical past. As a member of "Gong" or collaboration with Lou Reed 
and Phil Collins he has produced many scents in the music world.
Zhiyong Zhang from Hong Kong on saxophone also looks back on a great experience in Asia and works as a music teacher in Hong Kong.
Steven Craven on trumpet has been a member of the Malaga Philharmonic Orchestra for many years and has won several awards as best cornet player in  his home country.
Scotty Böttcher from Dresden ist a Master of freestyle Jazz on Organ,Keyboards, Mallet and Bass. He made  a lot of international Projects .
This mixture of the music rebel Ullip with decades of experience in Instand composing, the highly innovative sound tinkerer and outstanding Mark Hewins
 on guitar, the brilliantly playing Zhang on saxophone with his passion for jazz, coupled with the unique playing style of Steven Craven on flugelhorn, results in a fresh new way of creating jazz. This recording was produced in Ullip's Bergton studio in Andalusia.

"The melody of rhythm" - "Percussion drives emotions": this is a musical arc of tension that goes far beyond the boundaries of the usual. The percussionist Ullip is on the one hand inspired by diverse influences such as world music and jazz, classical and experimental, but always seeks and finds his own way to express moods in tempos and feelings in the specific sound of the percussion instruments

I don´t give  my music to Spotify, it´s a Bullshit Company

ESPEJO DE LA VIDA (Alfonso Llorente)

From 8000 Miles’ 2nd album Crystal Confetti comes another tune that gets a bit philosophical. How often does your first response to a situation cause you to feel that your opinion is being challenged? Yeah, it can be often. Everyone has their own take on things and that can cause uncomfortable feelings between people. So, consider in those times, when it might be appropriate to not claim that you are “right”. Let it go. Compromise. Choose peace. After all, being right is usually just an opinion. Yes? Think: I don’t have to be right.

As you may notice, the cover art harkens back to a familiar cover from 1973 and that is intentional, because Andrea and Rebecca are strongly influenced by music from that time period. Many fans of 8000 Miles’ first album, Aggregate, have remarked on that influence. The title Crystal Confetti represents the clarity 8000 Miles is honing in their duo’s style and the contrast of weighted moods and flying inspirations.

The entire album, Crystal Confetti, has been released on Bandcamp. Go to https://8000miles.bandcamp.com to check it out and follow 8000 Miles on Bandcamp to get first notices of new releases.
