This track takes you on a little trip through four Malagasy environments. The first part was recorded in the early evening on the edge of a rice paddy; the second, in the middle of the night in the heart of the Masoala Rainforest, which is in the north-east of the country; the third part is the general daytime ambiance within a strip of the Forest Corridor near Tolongoina; and the fourth is the cry of Madagascar's largest lemur, the Indri-Indri, calling out to mark the boundaries of their territory to another group.

Vinyl version. Well, you'll hear from which medium this was sourced (cassettes), but this ain't no complaint as it puts you back into the time it was recorded. And a musically great time it was as you experience on this absolutely heartical compilation. Think this one will grow with further listening. Thanks for this one, Ostinato Records!! Markus Bader

I have to say that this one is one of the finest compilation I've ever seen. The story, the cover, the pictures, the booklet and of course the music! Just magic, like a time machine. fabmeyer
