Maiia "It's beautiful. This local music compares most favourably with any new-age stuff we get on import from the U.S. This is an expression of an Aussie spirit, and in my experience Aussie spirit, or maybe it's the uphill battles our musicians go through to work in their industry actually gives them some edge on the big studio projects of the mainstream.
I enjoy the quirky moments that make this project so real & uncontrived. I think it's culturally valuable, some deeply committed Aussie professionals musos, making beautiful sounds - because they WANT to.
I like Dave Masters input in the remastering too, tasteful and unobtrusive. Yasmin Designs worked on graphics.
It's pretty exciting - thanks to internet the dedicated artist can now share their work without permission of the mainstream media conglomerates. Aussie Rock Cairns Impro is another of James gifts, 2010 saw him gather musicians from every genre and age group and all parts of the world in the harmonic spirit of creativity. |
