Lyrics by Raymond Federman
Steady rain
falling from the sky
that has closed in thight
against the city
so low
that one could reach up
with an umbrella
and touch it
A soothing muffling sound
like a great hand of water
folding over the house
the patter on the roof tiles
the ripple in the gutters
ceasing to be noised
becoming a thickening
liquificaton of air

Looking at Kuniga
From morning
'till evening
he's waiting at the shore
from evening
'till morning
he's staring at the waves that
will bring him
bring maybe
the answer to his question
should he stay
should he go
follow the fishes the flow
should he go
should he stay
he cannot see a way
a path that
will lead him
inside the center of
a new life
his old heart
is tired needs some rest
his feet
and his legs
they've walked for miles and miles
now he stands
just stands still
watching the sea the waves
should he stay
and lay down
or do another last journey

step by step
by step by....
step by step we go
following the light
step by step we walk
through the darkest night
step by step we will
reach the mountain top
step by step by step
moving forward slowly step by step
doesn't matter if you're young or old
just be glad with every little step
step by step we go
following the light
step by step we walk
through the darkest night

Great vibes here, from Broadcast (even Stereolab) to subtle touches of Carla Bley; vocals more Flora Purim than Sonja Kristina, though both are evoked. Canterbury shades regularly swim up, usually reinforcing the chill/lounge vibe, but then complex rhythms propel it to the RIO edge of the cosmos. Beautifully melodic, graceful, gauzy, expansive, cinematic... and subtly challenging. It serves well as intricate aural wallpaper (in the best possible way), but also rewards diligent attention. Encore!

Composed entirely by the keyboardist of Ghost Rhythms, Camille Petit, this is modern classical and chamber prog with a cinematic feel. Described as being about “infinity and finiteness,” there are choral voices at times, but the recording remains in an instrumental mode throughout. Ably performed by a whole host of musicians, the music is sometimes slightly disturbing, but always fascinating and sure to keep pulling you in.
