专辑简介

With the night song ep sandboy and nanar present the first offering taken from their forthcoming album. Starting with the debut album wanderlust (hint003CD/DLP) of his solo project sandboy, Tobias Meggle has built up a musical universe, which has earned him the respect of many and not just colleagues in music. With infectious ease he blends Broken Beat with Afro- and Latin influences and dresses the result up in an ethereal sound-robe full of depth. His musical style has not only impressed listeners and the international press but also companions like Peter Kruder, LTJ Bukem and Makossa. And with seven sandboy releases on his own hinterland records it's a success story that continues to grow. A multitude of high class vocalists constantly play an important role for sandboy Nanar Vorperian, Clara Hill, Randolph Matthews, Patrick Gammon or Nice Ferreira, to name but a small selection. But for the coming album Tobias Meggle has chosen another approach. Break Reform-Chanteuse Nanar Vorperian, who has already featured on tracks on "wanderlust" such as written in the leaves and pomegranate, finds herself exclusively in the center-field of the new album so the project is rightfully named as the collaboration that is, sandboy and nanar. By the way, one further prelude to the album has already been announced - the second 12 inch will appear in autumn 2007. night song (original) night song unites again all of the sandboy trademark sounds: exotic instruments (balaphone) integrated in a sound-scape as natural as it is elegant, a luscious, intelligently grooving back-beat, flowing bass lines, horns and of course the voice of Nanar Vorperian. Dense choral voices are contrasted with floatingly sung melodies containing multi-facetted lyrics which culminate in one charming line: remember - you need her - she is beautiful. night song (J.J Webster Remix) As one of the producers of Break Reform, J.J Webster is not just a long term associate of Nanar, but also an esteemed member of the hinterland-records family. He draws the groove out of a deep bass line with R&B drums and a trip-hop vibe. A piano pattern, strings and harp samples and above all a focus on Nanars chorus make this remix a very musical reworking and retain the song character. night song (Yoruba Soul Mix) This remix stems from none other than the american producer/DJ legend Osunlade. With releases, among others, on his own label Yoruba, Soul Jazz Records and BBE he is just the right choice to take those afro-vibes and transform them into a more clubby direction. The tempo is noticeably raised in the rolling deep house groove and combines perfectly with Nanars ever present vocals to make up all the right ingredients for a summer club experience... night song (Yoruba Soul Dub) Osunlades dub version uses but a few vocal elements and embeds them in driving percussion and string sounds. A slightly deconstructed deep house groove is also evident here highlighting the tune and makes it a hypnotic track, complete with spinning break-down part, ideal for those late hours on the dance floor.
