A
soundtrack for your imagination
The
song Five Cowrie Creek is a soundtrack for your
imagination, featuring a trumpet performance by Nathaniel-N- Bassey.
The second piece of music is a catchy tango on a stream of electronic
beats, titled Buenos Aires Revisited. It features
Kehinde Davids on the Violin.
Salamanca is made up of bewitched rhythms, electronic
beats and a dervish flute that takes you to an oriental landscape.
The flute is performed by Tee - Mac, a flutist of world format while
Jeremiah Gyang lets the Roland roll. The fourth track on the CD
is Rumores, which is basically an Andalousian guitar
in an ambient environment.
The Alchemist is a mysterious floating soundtrack
for travelers. Brasil, featuring Nathaniel Bassey
again, on jazz trumpet, has a truly enchanting melody. Kehinde Davids
features again on a guitar storytelling experience called Retratos
da Bahia, where he renders a breathtaking violin solo.
In
Ultima Vez, Jamix and Daguerro create an enigmatic
club mix, turning out a haunting bossa nova that pushes one towards
the dance floor. In '12 moments of silence on a deserted
beach' the voice of a Brasilian girl takes you into another
reality..
Goodbye interpretes the essence of goodbye with
the acoustic guitar and synthesisers.
All
tracks are written and produced by Daguerro.

Daguerro
Update! end of 2004
DAGUERRO is again in the recording studio between
February and August 2004. He is preparing a jazz album which should
be released in 2005 in Europe. Among the musicians we meet the trumpeter
Nathaniel -N- Bassey (already present on ‘Five
Cowrie Creek’) and the saxophonist Ayo Sholanke
from Lagos as well. The internationally acclaimed saxophonist, Mike
Aremu contributed on two different tracks.
Next
to Daguerro there’s this time, the keyboardist and drum programmer
Franklyn Braithwaite who is, since the start, involved
in the whole creative process for the new album. The style of the
music is Future Jazz, inspired by Bugge Wesseltoft’s
New Conception of Jazz, which indicates a lot of electronics have
been used. The
tone of the songs is quite mystic, like ‘streams of consciousness’.
The song ‘Black Isis’ is dedicated to the great jazz
trumpeter Don Cherry.
