For several years Ingo Sauerbrey made extensive travels through Indonesia, always carrying recording equipment to collect sounds as an audio diary. During periodic return trips to Germany, he started to work on the recordings with electronic devices. Some sounds were edited, cut and transformed, while others were kept completely intact. To name a few sound sources only recordings from Water Puppet and Shadow Theatres, Gamelan and various welcome and fighting dances like Kecak, Jegog and the Tarian Caci were used for this album. Some of those impressive performances featurd 60 to 90 men chanting and dancing while a bamboo orchestra used 4 meter long bamboo sticks playing bass drums. Sama Sadja weaves together the sounds of living traditions, religions and languages with spherical ambient pads and electronically edited drones from the field recordings. This is a contemplative and intimate soundtrack from the deepest heart of South East Asia.

On HEADSPIN we offer heavy stoner and psych rock sounds by excellent contemporary artists.
