This song is a reworking of the Ukrainian Carol of the Bells, also known as Shchedryk. It is a New Year's blessing. From wikipedia: "Shchedryk (from the Ukrainian word shchedryi; "bountiful") is a Ukrainian shchedrivka, or New Year's carol. It was arranged by composer and school teacher Mykola Leontovych in 1916, and tells a story of a swallow flying into a household to sing of wealth that will come with the following spring. Shchedryk was originally sung on the night of January 13 (Old Style), which is Shchedry Vechir (Ukrainian: ?????? ???i?, "Bountiful Evening") to Ukrainians, New Year's Eve by the Julian Calendar."
The percussion is by Gbera (Catherine Barnes). The vocals are by Edoheart (Eseohe Arhebamen). The mix and production are by both girls, Edoheart & Gbera. Edoheart lives in the East Coast, USA and Gbera lives on the West Coast, USA. We made this work entirely via the internet without meeting in person. The cover image is a drawing by Seth Yamasaki. The cover design is by Edoheart. We wish the whole world peace and love in the coming year.
This song was recorded in 2010.

Oto�o is an album of melancholic, intimist, minimalist music for piano. It has been recorded entirely of live improvisations, during 6 days of the fall of 2010, just as the music emerged from the forests of my mind to my fingers. It is an album of direct, sincere, quiet music to linger over. It is a double album of almost 100 minutes in length. I would like to thank Sergio Trujillo for recording some violins, and to Dobroide for some of his samples.
All track composed during live improvisations in the fall of 2010.
Violin played by Sergio Trujillo.

The 6 tracks of "Lemon juice & chloroform" contain the original soundtrack of the eponymous audiovisual work by Rosebruit + unreleased audio material recorded for the film � collapsing alternative drum/bass patterns, free funk-jazz, glitchy-psychedelism, distorted horns, noise/electronic, abstract break-beats�
No external sound sources were used in these recordings.
"Let us assume that there is a substantial difference between lemon juice and chloroform. That was to be expected and � need it be said that? � there is significant differences, among other things, between think tank and myself. There's reason to believe that chloroform and lemon juice are as necessary as coma for extrasensory perception. In a manner of speaking: breathing a so called toxic substance, such as chloroform, could increase � by combination of circumstances � creative activities in order to gradually create new physical and intellectual abilities such as ubiquity and prophecy. Consequently: a thirst-quenching liquid like lemon juice and an anesthetic like chloroform are not only different products but also the prerequisite to metaphysical introitus."

The Synthi Group returns for part three of their EMS analog music series. Unlike the first two releases, this edition was recorded with a specific theme in mind and with parameters of limitation. The artists appearing on volume three were asked to create ambient soundscapes using EMS equipment ONLY. No other musical gear was used in the creation of this compilation.
Sit back, plug in some headphones and be enveloped by the atmospheric aurality that these fine instruments offer under conduction of experienced adepts. The modulations crafted here are meant to accompany the listener on a voyage one could easily take during sleep, a walk communing with nature, or with a focused ritual. We�ll let you interpret whether your journey is more akin to a pleasant dream, or a dark nightmare; an enjoyable walk, or a terrified flight; a positive attainment of higher light, or the conjuring of the dead�
(Alka 2010)
