Czukay, Holger/Rolf Dammers – “Canaxis ” – [Spoon]

cinder   12/5/2008   A Library, CD

Holger Czukay was the bass play for the ever famous band, Can. Here he teams up with Rolf Dammers with 3 very mellow ambient tracks.
The first features a duo of two Vietnamese women singing with very melancholy tones. Looping and floaty, until about five and half minutes in where it seems the sun starts to shine. A choir, orchestral instruments, bass, keyboards & more interchange with each other through the 17 minutes. It ends about 8 seconds early.
The second track also features some vocals that are almost spiritual. Very calming and relaxing. Almost like a quiet camping trip on the mountain top with the Native Americans. Very meditative.
The last track was recorded straight from a radio broadcast in Germany, 1960. Very nice vintage sounding jazz tune. Sax I believe. Still has the hiss of the vinyl, very nice.
