Indie Values: Adrian Orange & Her Band

02-Mar-08


Interdependance Dance [MP3]
Fire Dream [MP3]
adrian_orange.jpgAdrian lives in the juncture between Jazz, Rock and Balkan music. Adrian’s music seem to borrow some of the aesthetic values of an Eastern European wedding, but provides a totally different take. Listen to his music long enough and you will find every genre you want there. So far I found Blues, Jazz, Balkan music and even Progressive Rock. I am still digging into it with every listen, each time a different segment captures my attention and again breaks the borders of yet another genre. In a way, this album embodies the true meaning of Indie music - to mix all that’s good in a new and exciting way with no respect to borders.

Zozobra [MP3]
Ihabibi [MP3]
Be Merry and Drink: A Hawk And A Hacksaw And The Hun Hangár Ensemble EPI am telling you, gypsies are going to take over everything. We ought to fight them, catch them while we can, there’s no other hope. The whole of civilization is at stake. Why am I asking you to take care of them? Why don’t I do it myself? Well, that’s quite simpel, I have been listening to their music. Do you really believe I could do anything to such music? Not possible. Go, listen to it, you will see. You will listen, and then you will come back to me weeping, for such beauty and joy only tears follow.
The new EP by A Hawk and a Hawksaw and the Hun Hangár Ensemble will be released in a limited 4,000 numbered copies on April 30th, and the accompanying tour will start on May 5th in Oxford.
