Kinski - Cosy Moments - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Acclaimed harpist and songwriter Mikaela Davis' new album, Graceland Way (due TK via Kill Rock Stars), builds an expansive, kaleidoscopic neo-western dystopia from the cozy origin point-that duality compounded by a subtle exploration of light and dark, grace and struggle, rose and thorn, as well as the mystical power found at their meeting points. The Inchcanyon countryInch epic born of that work is indebted to the titular street in Chevy Chase Canyon where she recorded the album, the lineage of Laurel Canyon, the mythos of Elvis's Graceland, and Paul Simon's restless reinvention. InchAt the end of the journey, the place you were destined for all along isn't even a place, it's a state of mind Graceland Way,Inch Davis says. Featuring an unreleased Cass McCombs track (Mizmoon) as well as contributions from Karley Hartzman (Wednesday), Tim Heidecker, Madison Cunningham, Neal Francis, James Felice (The Felice Brothers), Clay Finch (Mapache) & Hannah Read.

Re- of the saught-after Klaus Schulze album InchCocooningInch, previously released as part of the strictly limited and long exhauseted 5CD Boxset InchContemporary Works IIInch (2002). First track InchEasy ListeningInch is well-difined by the relaxed loops of Tom Dams and the filigree guitar play of Michael InchMickesInch Luecker. The mysterious sounding InchAnd She Is Kind And GentlyInch don't need any rhythm - a dialogue between Klaus and Tobias Becker, whose oboe and English horn is pleasing the ear on almost all Cocooning tracks. The third track InchI Just Have To Sing My HymnsInch brings back further well known companions of Klaus Schulze singer Julia Messenger and Thomas Kagermann on violin, flute and vocals. The last five songs are a song connected cycle of InchIt Still Is NowInch, InchBlowin' Thru The High GrassInch, InchMany Dreams Have Faded InInch, InchMany Fears Have VanishedInch and InchAs Years Went ByInch. A worthily and impressive continuance of InchEasy Listening full of atmosphere. The title InchCocooningInch is program and coats the listener into soft sounds and relaxed rhythms - real Incheasy listeningInch without getting fiddling or even boring. Another pearl from the huge Schulze Cosmos.
