pc1208-01 audio petcord <i>Wacky Southern Current</i> is Marco Cervellin from Italy who, with a little help from his friend Gianni Garbo, recorded these songs at a farmer's country house and this calm of the surrounding rural scenery had a lasting effect on the songs. <i>Ageless Calm in Times of War</i> contains references to diverse music genres such as Kraut- and Progressive Rock, post-rock a la Tortoise, but also contemporary ambient sounds. The latter becomes most apparent in water colours which shows some parallels to Letna's or The Green Kingdom's work. In <i>Ageless Calm in Times of War</i> a melancholic lyricism is prevailing: Observation of the cloud's amorphous ever changing shapes, colourful spots washing out from a distance, the mulberry tree nearby and sparkling reflections of sunlight on a riverbank become personal metaphors for a specific moment. 2008-12-05 2008 ambient; alternative; post-rock; http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ 2008-12-06 12:45:23 2008-12-06 12:44:14 ow.archive.org@spambob.net petcord petcord 2008-12-06 13:08:44 2008-12-06 13:13:08 Artist's profile at Petcord: <a href="http://www.petcord.com/artists/wacky-southern-current/">Wacky Southern Current</a> 2008-12-06 18:14:26 petcord
