{6} ARIEL KALMA: Osmose (1978 2xLP; 2006 cd; 2013 LP)
On this first day of the year, i decline until the first year of the existence of this blog (2008), in which his second publication was the excellent album that is "osmose". Originally released in 1978 through the talented composer Ariel Kalma, using all manner of keyboards, harmonium, sound effects, saxophone etc. where rhythms and melodies are inspired from Nature, various cultures, native instruments, modal music (music that uses diatonic scales that are not necessarily major or minor and does not use functional harmony as we understand it within tonality...) and even circular breathing.
This record is a trip in to the ecological environment, the mystical side of man and Nature, where the minimalist complexety of the sounds are fused with the rainforest "music", record by Richard Tinti in Borneó. From this mix Ariel created abastract melodies and warm chordal, accompanied with simplistic tribal beats, wich in all perfectly blended with the calls of crickets, frogs, cicadas and the artificial drone. But please, do not confuse this sublime music with commercial new age music, it has nothing in common in their construction and elegance, because this disc is superior in all its essence and experimentalism, which differs from such a poor product as the mentioned gender.
Highly recommended for listening in the days when the physical, emotional and spiritual wear need additional reinforcement.
