Cat. # 7032
Released 1998
cd time - 44:39
US Price $16.00
 
Eyvind Kang has one of the strangest musical minds on the scene today. His first release 7 NADEs was on many "Best 10" lists of 1996 and this second installment of his "NADEs" series is, as one would expect, something completely different. Medieval crumhorns, ecstatic arrangements, lilting melodies, unusual concepts and, of course, Eyvind's virtuosic violin stylings. This epic work, a year and a half in the making, is Kang's personal take on "East" and "West." Theater Of Mineral NADEs is Kang's Sgt. Pepper's. Destined to become one of the most important records of the year.
