Bedouine – Back to you (from the album Bedouine, Spacebomb)
Another wonderful nugget from Matthew E. White’s Spacebomb hub in Richmond Virginia.
The origin though is the voice and songs of Azniv Korkejian, born in Syria to Armenian parents but resident in the US for some years.
Her voice is an intoxicating thing. Hushed. Softly spoken. Insistent. Containing something of a Carole King about it. Or even a Karen Carpenter maybe. Another time anyway.
When there was strength in subtlety and soul was in the nuance as much as the volume.
And the dream of an arrangement behind the perfect match.
Gently enervating brass and woodwind.
Uplifting top note strings.
Beautiful pitter patter bass.
A genius falsetto backing vocal that seems to catch me every time.
She also has a way with as lyric, Ms Korkejian.
California city parks
They talk in exclamation marks
An understated treasure.
