about

The starting point for this track were the haunting lyrics of Theo Hakola - the fantastic American singer/songwriter now based in Paris. To create an equally haunting melody, we found matches with a piano sample of Chris Birkett in France, ney flute recorded in Cairo, drums in Istanbul, and further vocals recorded in Brazil of Andréa dos Santos singing a tribal song, evoking memories of indigenous peoples of the Americas, counterpointing Theo’s lyrics.
