New Origa release

[Crispain]

Hi everyone 
I've just received an email from cdjapan with the following info

Aurora - Origa
Catalog No.: RSCR-1006
Format: CD
Number of discs (or other units): 1
Release Date: 2005/10/05

Do anyone know something else about it?

I was expecting this cause of the new website design, and am very happy and excited about it!

Dont know any details though.

I think there's additional info into the japan page at cdjapan, could some japanese reader tell us what it's about please? ... thaaanks  :

Origa - it's been 2 years after the original album that release "Poljushko Pole", "Karianka", and other Russian folk songs as well as collaborations, all that culminates to a reinvented Origa. The nostalgic and fantastic voice of Origa is whole, majestic, and it's strong in its beautiful warmth. There are 10 tracks on the new CD, 2 of which are in Japanese.

(basically that's what I make out... I obviously edited it to a looser translation. If someone cares to correct me, feel free...)

[kacper]

only 10?

[Crispain]

Thanks Josh

Samples are in the discography section: AURORA fcking RAWKS.
And I really like the Polyushko Pole mix on thsi album as well.
Grey Archangel I think our prayers have reached the right people. :x

Oh ok - now it makes more sense (sometimes Japanese is a little difficult to translate in English terms...)

What they were saying was that it's been 2 years since "Era of Queens" was released, and that on the new album there would be Polyushko-pole, Kalinka, and some other folk songs as well as collaborations with other people (Yoko Kanno perhaps? That'd be nice....... lol)

I'm curious as to if this is yet again the same Polyushko that she continually releases over and over. The only different one was on Eien (the 'eien' mix which was really a demo...). I hope that this is at least a rerecording.

As for Mona Lisa - is Origa doing a jazz standard?! This should be interesting if it's the same song I'm thinking of. (Donna Burke does a nice cover of it... just throwing that out there)

The cover looks very pretty, though at second glance it looks like her hair will attack you at any given moment because it's alive! hehe

Also - on her website it says she's having a concert with several others involved in Russian music on the 28th of August (2 days from now) and it will be broadcast on TV on the Asahi National Broadcasting Company in September in Japan. The air dates are set tentatively for September 25th at 9 in the morning, and September 28th at 9 at night. I really hope someone can tape this in Japan... [hint hint]

[kacper]

Hopefully that concert appears on winny/share, so I can leech. :x

[josh]

Oh my god. I just listened to the sound samples. "Aurora" is something that the Era of Queens album *wished* it had. That song is so beautiful. I can't wait!

I'm not too fond of the remix of "Poljushko-Pole" however. Maybe it'll grow on me...

And yeah, I really hope someone does record the concert. I'd do it myself, but um, there's that lack of me being in Japan heh.

[Crispain]

I'll say it again...! wooooow 

Thanks Kacper
