I have just updated the album of field recordings and related soundscape compositions with 4 new tracks. One recorded on the Black Sea, Irakli in 2018: ney and drum music around a campfire tangling with gentle rage of waves. Two raw recordings of a villager in Belovo named Angelina as she sings an incantation for rain (some of us think) in Romany and or Turkish (we think), blended with the murmur of doves, other local birds, village life getting by in late August. Proceeds for these will go to Angelina and her people. Last is the piece I created for the Electro-Acoustical Poetical Society's podcast. "Permanent Arrival" contemplates the theme of being unable to go home and the arrival in music, song, art, the reconciliation with a home within one's own body, ancestry and self-creation of all of them in the course of one's life. It also bears witness to the life of the Roma who teach me to stay put traveling and go far while sitting in the middle of nowhere, whoever I am.
All tracks can be downloaded individually but the real winner is the complete album purchase with the streaming possibility and the you can select which tracks you like to hear the most out of the wide variety of sound tapestries created in Bulgaria over the last 3 trips.
Each track has it's own detailed description in the notes section of each track so I remind you to check out the notes which tend to get over-looked or undiscovered.
