about

For years I´ve heard "it sounds good, but you should make real musicians play it" so I decided to invite some of my idols to join in. This is the miracolous result, just give a look to the line up and listen something... IT MUST BE IN YOUR COLLECTION!!

*Bonus Tracks:

10 - Proteo Revampirizado (Finale: Elvin & Ryoko solos).
I´ve got to admit I´m still finding new things in Emmett Elvin´s guitar solos. He has the gift of telling stories with the strings.
And not precisely children's stories...
And Ryoko Ono, WOW! I´ve got to confess that I never expected to one day listen to a human being plays that particular and millimetric riff at the very end of the coda. The riff is composed using the 3 charango guitar themes of the song, changing the time signature between 9/8 and 19/16 each bar!

11 - Zidane Racist (Second Half: Bafus, Elvin, Salamon).
This take offers a more agressive aproach of the second part of the song, with Emmett Elvin going zeuhlishly crazy on bass and a possesed Samo Salamon knitting schizoids guitar lines over a belic machinery called Jon Bafus.

Bonus tracks 12, 13 & 14 are just for fun, a curious vision of what could it may be... someday... Who knows?

about

Greco Bastián Acapulco, Mexico

I'm just a man lost in music.
I cannot play any instrument, but I know how it must to be played, so I compose some tunes and some dear friends help me in order to make it sounds as it has to be... Without them I'm nothing.

Insolubilia
by Ske

supported by 31 fans who also own “With a little hell from my friends”

Mysterious, yet nostalgic, Isolubilia is truly an ode to the romance found in the pursuit of a mystery. Musically rich in turbulence and serenity, majesty and humbleness, this album made me feel both lonely, yet understood as an isolated individual. Perhaps we're all fellow romantics, looking up at the same night sky, trying to wring our own meaning out of the stars. I hope that pursuit never ends. The John

No one does music quite like Camille and Xavier do. I see their music as being akin to soundtracks for unfilmed movies. In this instance it is a movie about explorers of mountainous terrain, perhaps the terrain of our lives. Merci pour cette musique si intrigante. :-) sumbuk

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
