The Camels:
The Original Camel: Itay Swissa was born in Israel in the town of Dimona.
Itay comes from a musical family and now continues the tradition with this, his debut album: "Lost in my own Mind".
At the present Itay works as a sound designer and musician at "Shapa" studios in Ramat Aviv, Israel.
The American Camel: Z. Fohrman was born in the USA but has lived in Israel for most of his life. He works a voice artist and a writer. For the most part Z. likes to rant and rave about social imbalances and injustices, but has agreed to keep his big mouth shut for the duration of this project.
The British Camel: Emily Bennett, is a talented singer, violinist and sitar player from Britain. She currently lives and works in Israel, performing with Amiram Inc.
Without a doubt, this flame haired British beauty is the one who puts the elegant in Elegant Camel.

Elegant Camel - Introduction:
Welcome to the Elegant Camel. Elegant Camel is the brainchild of musician and sound architect, Itay Swissa (Swisound).
Elegant Camel will attempt to bring you a taste of desert inspired, experimental grooves.
Of course we have a message, both social and political, but we'll keep it to ourselves and not bore you with it.
Instead we've laid down some smooth, sexy tracks; Something to listen to while on the road, on rainy days or in those intimate moments that call for something smoky and soothing.
Enjoy, and thanks for listening.

What’s Crackin’ Elegant Camel ? We’re hitting back our myspace folks to let you know that your prayers have been answered. What prayers, you may ask. Well, today my friends, the good reptiles over at Bossasaurus (namely the ones writing this message) have teamed up with Murs (Living Legends, Def Jux, 9th Wonder, etc.) to, for the first time ever, offer you a taste of our music with an emcee over them. If you hate emcees and were feeling the tranquility of our un-defiled instrumental works than we sincerely apologize for our critical error in judgment. Otherwise come on over and check out:
We hope you enjoy it. If you don't come thru and talk that sweet smack.

As you can appreciate, this time of the year, I don't think they get to listen to much of the demos they get. I was chatting with one of the guys at Parlophone, and he said he'll find it and give it a listen. I also gave him your myspace details!
I'm going to chat with the people I know at Positiva, and I will forward their email adds to you. I think Positiva label is the best option!
Hi there! My official remix to Hoxton Whores' new mega lifting "Sunrise" track is now released (currently on djdownload and in the following days also elsewhere). The radio (short) edit is available in my page. You're welcomed to listen, play or whatever :)
Hey Swisound, Imagine you meander through love as a river delta contemplating levitation. Wood nymphs sprinkle your path with rose petals while you dance and prowl in the sequined moonlight with leftover cupcake sprinkles. If I could have just one wish, it would be to wake up to your songs in the morning. Your layers of absinthe and torsion form concretions of hyper-alimentation. Transistors bridge where your vanity would never go. I sense wild vapors of sweet champagne in your larynx. May you be as vivid as your hallucinations. I desire to touch and see your face. Come, let me suckle your fingers that I may absorb and lose myself in the wise and beautiful starlight that is you. How beautiful is the snowshine in your eyes, so directly current from the static in your mind. You have not yet reached the height of your creativity. In your presence even my shadow acquires the sensation of touch. How can I help but use your eyes as a means for self-asphyxiation? Your intoxicating reflection can but incorporate freely into the powerful surface of a disintegrating mirror set afloat upon a swarm of locusts.
