Just wanted to let you know that your album was a welcomed companion on my travels to Austin. It really speaks to me. Thanks for making such rad music!
Hurrray!!! listening again... what a weave of magical melodies Dan Z..,
Some Indian ladies leave flaws(loose strands) in their woven peice's to let the soul out... so must we in weaving our ooh's & ahh's, bongo beats & whirly saws, guitars & flute!! Let us lift our glasses to loose strands!! :0)) Good old Søren & Copenhagen await!
Hey Dan, loving the new album. Can't wait for the hard copy to arrive! I dig the stripped down sound on Great Small, but all the embellishments on this one suit your voice extremely well. :0) Pure Adjustments is brilliant by the way.
it's just a picture i've found surfing the web... I think it's about lifeforms resembling the universe or something like that... I'm glad you liked it.
