INFO International Feel, the much-Òrespected Balearic imprint introduces the first release in a new
series of mini-Òalbums from Len Leise. Consisting of six to eight tracks, the concept allows each
artist to show more of who they ar e musically without the constraints of the traditional album
format. It wil l followed by a beautiful release from Canada's CFCF , an ambient album from Jan
Schulte and the return of Gatto Fritto .
Len Leise is Australian, tha t we know for a fact. Does he exist? Maybe in the mind of his creator. He has released three beautiful EP's to date and there is a very natural musical the me to his music, one that is built
around emotion, times and spaces. His fi rst long-Òform work 'Lingua Franca' shows the varied palette of
music he wa s listening to, from ambient jazz through to afro disco. The likes of Yasuaki Sh imizu, Jake Solo
and Ike White. Rare names for a rare sound.
'Lingua F ranca' is all about travel and progression. Both from one place to the next and an emotional
migration. An imaginary journey based on real experiences -Ò t hough as with his name -Ò what is real and
what is not doesn't matter. Moro cco appears in the deep ride of 'Forlorn Fields' , Spain in 'Leaving
Llucma jor' and Russia in 'Route To Reutov '. Ever on the move, trade language is neces sary -Ò a 'Lingua
Franca' . India finds its way here via the chimes of ' Ma dala Maksim ', Brazil in the afro disco sound of ' O
Camino ' and Africa in the slow thoughtful pace of ' El Modelo '.
Sometimes a visual brings the m usic to life, sometimes a thought or feeling. It's music to keep and get lost in, a spiritual ride across the world's paths and percussions. These sounds a re true to Len Leise and 'Lingua
Franca' has been designed to delve inside his mind. A spread of wings, changes of pace and a chance to
indulge in tho se wispy, smoke-Òfilled thoughts.
