LEAD SINGLE FROM THE UPCOMING ALBUM (Sept 24) “Modern Acoustic World Jazz Rock”
This multicultural group has achieved international popularity among music fans for their eclectic performances, drawing from 3 continents. Together, guitarist Steinar Aadnekvam (Norway), bassist Rubem Farias (Brazil) and drummer/singer Deodato Siquir (Mozambique) have performed hundreds of concerts in some 17 countries across Europe, Eurasia, Africa and the USA before making this album.
Performed in studio in one take, originally intended as an online stream during the 2020 pandemic. However, when we heard the result we realized that the recorded music needed to be treated properly and presented as an album. After all this is a band that has played several hundreds of concerts all around the world over the past 5 years and we feel you can hear that in the maturity of these performances, the tightness of the interplay, the effortless manner with which the songs unfold. Just as they were always intended.

“Любовь дуэта к музыке жанров Melodic Techno & House слышна в каждой ноте и это сразу же подкупает. Звучание наполнено магией и чем сильнее вы это почувствуете, тем сильнее у вас перехватит дыхание. Если получится, то попробуйте сделать перерыв, переживая услышанное и пытаясь угомонить разыгравшуюся бурю эмоций!”

"fernweh" is a laid-back chillhop lo-fi track with dreamy guitars embraced by a warm soundscape of piano and Rhodes. The "Guitar" is actually a Fender BassVI, a rare instrument which ranges between bass & guitar (used by Robert Smith of The Cure) and adds this melancholic Touch. Spiced up with a bouncy Drum Groove and a Jazz-Ride Toploop. After the recent Spot in 2 big Editorials flamingo is super motivated to follow his path in the global beatmaker game
