Ghost

Dreamsheep DS015
Digital Download

Originally released on tape in ultra-limited quantities (35 copies never really distributed in 2006 on a cassette called "Christmas Ragas"), the 26-minute long track "Winds & Strings From The Golden Crescent" is an audio journey lost into the sands of time and the lushous magic of the Middle-Eastern/Indian traditional music. Listening to this track is like having in your room Kadri Gopalnath's sax filtered through a boombox playing some slowed-down tapes of Ali Akbar Khan's early masterpieces, all covered into a thick fog of delays and lo-fi muddiness. Definitely recommended for fans of Canary Records, Nath Family and meditative/new age sounds with their gazes turned towards the East. Carefully remastered by Valerio Cosi himself from the original audio sources and digitally re-released on Dreamsheep.

released September 22, 2016

"Cosi is truly a first rate player and composer whose work effortlessly oscillates from traditional, swinging jazz melodies to soul purging Ayler-esque dirges." (Alex Cobb - Students Of Decay label owner/musician) 

"Cosi could turn out to be one of the real discoveries of 2006." (John Cavanagh, writer/musician/Pink Floyd biographer) 

"I couldn't recommend highly enough Italian wunderkind multi-instrumentalist Valerio Cosi's "Immortal Attitudes" (CDR); his sun-drenched sax-drone-ragas will make you wish it was 1969 and you were on acid and hanging with Terry Riley at an Alice Coltrane gig - or vice versa." (Stephen Clover, Foxy Digitalis writer/musician)

"The best stuff is a little smoother than that, melting bits of semi-modality into flattened stretches of drone. But even those spots have this weird kind of incongruity, an odd sense that these things just shouldn't be put together, that I really dig. Maybe it's not so much shouldn't as usually aren't, which is kinda refreshing - even my fave recs of late don't offer anything so intriguingly off..." (Marc Masters, Pitchfork / Noiseweek)
