I took 20 copies of the whale song, stretched & chopped them…
Let me introduce to you
Every woman child and man
The place I did my growing up
Raised by grandma's hand
I think you'll find
That folks are kind
They're sure to ask you in
Enter the warmth
Close the door
And my story will begin…
I composed this track as a demo of my sampling project "The First Bulgarian Virtual Choir" some time ago...
I invited the famous folk singer Katia Georgieva to perform the live lead vocal.

the cold collides, outside, oh woe
this hopless day, the warm resides, inside, makes me want to cry
the emotions, that i hide, oh woe
this hopless way, confide with the sky, don't ask me why
and the branches swining, and the animals play…
My favourite from your CD this year - truly wonderful song and great production. I would've attempted to cover it for the spin-off project, but would only end up trying to replicate the original, which would be pointless and fruitless.
shame I make the same mistakes each time
adding up, piling on this list of my crimes
the biggest to the smallest weigh the same to me
buried beneath of mountain with no hope of getting free
holding on to my broken dreams
shame I have no…
This was the first time I'd fired up my telecaster and amp for a recording and it felt like sitting in Sun Studios or something. Amazing sound after playing just acoustic instruments for a year. It's the first take and I loved it!
This is now…
The more times I listen to this whole cd the better it gets! Quite possibly my favourite new album of the past couple of years. Particularly like Black Cat, Old Roy's daughter and the slide playing on Jimmy. Great stuff - more please!
Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916).
Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul.
Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.
Exquisite. I heard hints of Giovannis music for The Wicker Man here so I'm a sucker for anything like that. This piece has its own identity though and is truly sublime.

Nice tune Alex. Reminds me a bit of mid period John Cale - which is no bad thing in my world!

Great vibe. Kind of Segovia meets Radiohead thing...with scratching.
Great guitar track, sad story, sorry for your loss. Lives on in your song.
Great beats with space to breathe. Very nice.
