KINK GONG - TIBETAN BUDDHISM TRIP
LP (12"/10" Album)
Label: AKUPHONE
Release date: 10/07/2017
Barcode: 0659436391413
Catalog no.: AKULP0001006
Item ID: 447112
Psalmody, small bells, big cymbals, gongs and drums - this puzzling collage of Tibetan Buddhist rites recordings is hypnotizing, which opens the way to a state of trance. The slight electronic arrangement still reminds that reality is not so far. The two twenty-minute tracks instantly convey an unknown and fascinating universe. Mantra chanting accelerates, horns become more insistent and a mystical atmosphere arises. With 'Tibetan Buddhism Trip', Akuphone starts exploring ritual and ceremonial music, here with a subtle mix of field recordings and electronic handlings. Recorded in Tibet and Yunnan (China) by Laurent Jeanneau between 2006 and 2013. Recomposed in Berlin in 2016. The LP comes with an insert and a download card for a live performance in Bristol and unseen pictures.
