Kosmopterix is unbounded and therefore escaped creature of no-place. A place of living, breathing, running energies… creatures, entities… It is also a new album from Du’s didgeridoo songsmith workshop. A result of didgeridoo playing explorations 2007. – 2009.
Theme of Kosmopterix are the usual- non existing topics of worlds unknown, spaces and space forests, landscapes unimagined, very big and very small creatures, reality travel agents, ravens and feathers, winds and skies, big wheels of Cosmos backstage… The usual unusual Du’s points of interest and joy.
The strong focus is on the song life and it’s expression, but if you are a didgeridoo oriented person, you will probably hear some new ways of playing in that life. There are witnesses that Du spent a long time with Nothing, before the new ways were discovered to him. If you are a manic rhythm counter- you will enjoy the uncountable number of countable measures and their transitions. If you are a voice loving person you will notice that voice plays more and more important part of this didgeridoo playing, as a strong thread interleaved with breath.
Songs and feathers of Kosmopterix have a wide spectrum of colour. That is so because their body is generated by didgeridoo sound, and luckily on Kosmopterix there is an instrumentarium that doesn’t fit in a room. The Classical C sound of Stinkirum is now resurected for songs Lake of Awareness, The Spatialist and to a most avantgarde song, Point of Line.
If you remember the soft bass ofthe old song Mandala, you can also find it in songs Koridoro del Sono and Misao iz daleka. The rough sharp edges of didge you can hear in WhatIsIt, and the deep long instruments, 4-7meters, can be heard on Putnik, Arhanđeo svega čudnog and the biggest of all – Volvitur in Rota…
The rest of the secrets is up to you to discover….
Secret guests, long forgotten messages and hidden sound passages.
