Warping ambience in Orlando
One of the women from Red Shift Mantra just contacted me about submitting a piece for WTBTN.Since I had not heard of Red Shift Mantra before, I looked them up and found a very compact but informative little website, complete with some nice mp3s to listen to. Very beautiful stuff, I was quite nicely surprised. Dreamy female vocals accompanied by drones on organic and electronic instruments. Hard to describe, but very trancey. Like it a lot. I am eager to listen to the solo works she is sending me.
Oh I am having so much fun with this project... Ain't the Universe grand? Everyone is a STAR.
LISTEN TO: In Our Hands more mp3s available from their website...
Here is another mp3, archived from local Orlando-based radio programme ECHOES that did a radio spotlight on Red Shift Mantra. Excellent interview with members and spotlights some lovely pieces of music in the background (approx. 9min.)
