La Colonie Volvox - EAST WEST AND REST
10 videos • 714 views • by La Colonie Volvox "East West and Rest" is a 67 minute journey through the colorful and layered milieu of the interacting global cultures. The album is divided in two fictional sides, of which side A or "West" deals with the discrete charm of the North/West individualism and it's unbearable lightness of being, while side B or "East" emphasizes the deep, meditative and collective consciousness of the Eastern worlds. However, as in reality, the two worlds are never clearly separated, so don't expect to hear totally different soundscapes -- on the contrary, the similarities are always stronger and deeper rooted then the differences. "East West and Rest" is the second CD released on the Macedonian indie label "EGoEast Records" and the fourth consecutive album of the group. (The previous three are "Abstractology" and "Wasteland" (2006, SJF Records) and "Europa" (2009, EgoEast Records).
