SKETCHES

"Mani Neumeier has been at the helm of Germany's legendary Krautrock group Guru Guru for over thirty-five years, and for twenty of those years he's been working on Sketches, his first solo album. Sketches is an absolutely sacred collage of rare field recordings, tribal music, heavy drumming, dreamlike nature sounds, and even an electrical generator in Thailand that inspired Neumeier in the middle of the night many years ago. From birds in a rice field in Goa to the voice of an Indonesian stewardess and a drum solo recorded in Frankfurt during the 2006 German Legends Tour, this is a personal, percussion-based audio journal/ethnic drum jam." www.amazon.com
