KALIMBA DE LUNA: HEAR & NOW REMIX

A1. "Hear & Now" (Land Of Sunshine remix)
A2. "Hear & Now" (1984 long version)
B1. "Hear & Now" (Onda Nueva remix)



Limited edition 12's - hand-numbered - and dedicated to the 1984 Long Version of the famous hit 'Kalimba De Luna' by Tony Esposito. Enriched by two remixes by the magical Italian duo Hear & Now. On Tony's Tamborder: You are also an instrument maker: you created the Tamborder - how do you create an instrument? Where did the idea of creating an instrument that creates sound come from? Tony: Every gesture always hides a basic culture. I come from the art academy, from drawing. A person that comes from drawing, from painting, clearly comes from an impact with colour. I turn to music first with a colourist aspect, that is, the music for me is in color; for me the combination of colours is fundamental. When I go to Africa, I see that there are coloured things... I used to say: I play the drums, everyone's drums, but what is my drum? So I thought of combining a bit of modern electronics with what is instead the sound of Africa and the Tamborder was born - which means frontier drum. An instrument was born over the years, perfected but unique. I made Kalimba's notes with that instrument, I can make a complete composition with that instrument. I have been to America to do music therapy and to universities to show this instrument. It was born like this, by chance, I can't tell you how the path went, it was magically born from a mistake. I was looking for something, on my own I was trying to mix crazy combinations and this unique sound was born.
