CAWATANA / STORM OF CAPRICORN - 'Split' CD (Twilight Records)
This full album contains 5 unreleased tracks of Cawatana in a martial / neoclassical / dark ambient / military pop vein, but experimental, and an excursion into styles. Storm Of Capricorn also contributes 5 unreleased songs, in the classic military, ambient style. They also offer a cover version of the Kate’s Bush song 'Cloudbusting' and a vocal collaboration written by Kutna Hora’s frontman Gabriel Carbone. Argentinian import presented in a nice digipak.
(2006) Stéphane Flauder and Florence Cailleux create very serene and honest ambient, which could sometimes even be labelled classical music. They get their inspiration from a great variety of sources: Lars von Trier, Lewis Carol, David Lynch and Edward Hopper, to name just a few. "Patagonie" offers 15 quiet, fairytale-like musical compositions and has a soothing and calming effect. Features collaborations with Serge Usson (Storm of Capricorn) and Nicolai Moldoveanu (EMPI, Nick Grey). Ltd x 500.
