New album – ORGANIC DOROMB by Áron Szilágyi

(Hurgarian below)* 

My new solo album, Organic Doromb is out now. I'm verry glad about it. It is made of Jew's harp sounds only (ok, there is an overtone flute, a fuyara and a bit of voice too, but these are marginal), but the whole thing sounds quite electronic. I have cooked something new made from the sounds of one of the oldest instruments along with my friend, Praczas (Rafał Kołaciński). //Huge thanks to Praczi.// There are two tracks with raw, single Jew's harp. I'd like to share some thoughts about the song, "Ketten" (that means duo or the two of us). I recorded this song with my brother, Barnabás Szilágyi in 2011 in New York. We had no plans. We just stood in front of 1 Neumann mic and just let it go, let it flow. What you hear on the album is the first take, single track, first attempt, instictive play as I had to leave for the airport 15 mins later. Of course, we'd played this groove in different forms before, but this time our neurons joined. Enjoy the music, be open, it's quite different from everything that I'd done before. Pretty soon you can find the album on all online music stores, but it seems Google's electro-gnomes were the quickest to digest the bits: https://play.google.com/…/Szil%C3%A1gyi_%C3%81ron_Organic_D…

If you want to hold in your hand (I recommend, it feels nice), you can order from my shop or in the US from CD baby (soon): http://doromb.com/…/…/szilagyi-aron-organic-doromb-cd-detail

* A minap megjelent az új szóló lemezem Organic Doromb címmel. Nagyon örülök neki. Csak doromb hangokból áll össze (valamint egy tilinkó, egy fujara és énekhang, de ezek elenyészőek), viszont meglehetősen elektronikus hangzása van. Az egyik legősibb hangszerből, annak hangjaiból főztem Praczas (Rafał Kołaciński) barátom segítségével valami újat. A lemezen szerepel két teljesen direkt, egyszáldoromb dal is. Ezek közül a "Ketten"-ről mondanék pár gondolatot. Ezt 2011-ben vettük fel testvéremmel, Szilágyi Barnabással New Yorkban. Semmi terv nem volt. Odaálltunk 1 db Neumann mikrofon elé ketten és ami jön, hajrá. Ami a lemezen van, az az első és egyetlen próbálkozás volt, mivel 15 perc múlva indulnom kellett a géphez. Természetesen ezt a témát játszottuk már többször is, ilyen-olyan formában, de itt volt az, hogy a neuronjaink egymásba kapcsolódtak. Hallgassátok szeretettel, ér tőle megriadni és lebutateknózenézni. A kis elektro gnómok szorgoskodnak a háttérben, így minden online felületen fent lesz, de a gugli villanyrabszolgái a leggyorsabbak: Google Play: https://play.google.com/…/Szil%C3%A1gyi_%C3%81ron_Organic_D…

Fizikai formában innen, és itt is lehet kérni rá filctollas szívhezszóló személyes üzeneteket is: http://doromb.com/…/…/szilagyi-aron-organic-doromb-cd-detail

Who is Olena Uutai? Britain’s Got Talent 2018 semi-finalist and Russian professional throat singer

When Simon Cowell asked her why she made the long trip to England for the show she replied "I want to share my culture with the rest of the world…"

OLENA Uutai is through to the semi-finals of Britain's Got Talent - but she might already have won the prize for most unique act.

"Olena Uutai's audition on Britain's Got Talent was aired on May 12, 2018…

"She then performed her throat singing routine in which she played the jaw harp (khombus) and made whinnying horse noise…"

…At first the judges seemed bemused by her act but by the end they were amazed and Alesha Dixon said: “I absolutely love you, you’re other worldly, you’re like a stallion goddess!”

Olena made it through to the next round and will perform in the live semi-finals.
