Dönülmez akşamın ufkundayız... It's Turkish. The night of the day that i have lost my grandfather. My uncle looked into eyes of my father and said " Dönülmez akşamın ufkundayız abi." which means. " We are at the horizon of irreversible night, brother. " Around the world in a tea daze, once you are with us and then you are no more. Peace for all the living and the deadones
another wonderful song from shpongle. the lyrics strating at 5.08 are: aaahhhh dönülmez akşamın ufkundayız günahsız aziz istanbul yar bahtsız aziz istanbul are turkish and from a part of very old turkish art music. song is written in 1950. yeah soo old one. i wonder how raja ram or simon posford find out this song.
Wow. I've always enjoyed the crap out of Shpongle. Never really thought about seeing it live. This video has confirmed that seeing them live is something I must do while I yet live. That was simply magical.
@justinm5892 I´m no expert about it, especially since I hardly use anything anymore, but Sativa is Ganja (marihuana) you get light & happy with, the other type, Indika, makes you heavy. On Sativa I can enjoy the company of people & and music and dance all night long, Indika makes me too tired and I just want to lay down. But for ex. Afghani Hash that is far too heavy Indika for me to smoke, and instead eat it and take effedrin it´s a wonderful experience lasting all night without heavy drugs.
@bqureshi21 yeh, you should! I´d listen to Shpongle before but it was first when I had some sativa and listened to "Tales of the inexpressible" on a very good recordplayer - then it´s a very big difference listen to vinyl insted of boring CD-sound - I truly discovered the true geniuos of Raja&Simon. I was so exited I couldn´t sit down - jumping up & down of excitement!
Here is the turkish translation: We are at the horizon of the unreturnable night, the time is too late My lifetime! This is the last cheerful part, pass however you do Even if it means to come in the world again The unending turmoil of night will start again after it passes
@trickykid0011 so am i! im flying in from akron ohio, hit me up on my email if you want to chill out somewhere in new york before the show. this is my first time flying out of state alone, gonna be an insane night. this is a shared account so i emailed you my personal.
Of course Raja didn't sing it. It's just the way he performs... trying to imitate all voices/sounds. I find it somewhat annoying too. Their gigs with dancers are more fun to watch. They should do something like Juno Reactors Live in Tokyo. That gig seriously rocked.
But I think it sounds cool as a live show, compared to the album version, they play the guitar, instead of synth sounds, raja plays the flute, and does some exrta improvizations. The girls sing live too. I love it. But Simon should play live with a Keyboard, instead of trying to look busy mixing. Every synthesized sound should be played live by simon, so it would give a nice feeling.
Their concerts would be so much more awesome if they were more acoustic, now it's mostly Raja playing around with masks and toys while Simon is trying to look busy handling the mixer, while he is actually just responsible for keeping the CD-player alive ;p.
i was just as disaapointed as you..but when i heard how simon played his set, it didn't bother me annymore :p sphongle made my B2B great^^ i would kill for seeing raja ram with sphongle and 1200 mics but i think he's in australia now..
@DJandreyhimself Thank you for not letting me be the only one.. Before I had very different taste of music witch changed from time to time..now, the only music i can listen to is Shpongle or Shpongle like music..
nah my grand pa is 80+. I dont know hes age but that wasnt the point in my statement! I just wanted to point out the fact that hes an elder person that knows how to have fun... not many can be found unfortunaly

u aiN't NOtHiNG uNtiL u HaveN't PLayEd iN BCN!!! PLEASE COME HOME SOON !!!! ... ainss.. YOU're lovely and brilliant and I agree who says your art can change the own music conception
I Love Shpongle but i kinda doubt Raja Ram is playing the flute here, it sounds exactly as the album version and the album version is so studio-post-produced... cool video though.
btw lyrics means: we are on the unturnable horizon night innocent saint istanbul my love luckless saint istanbul its absurd to try to translate to eng. i hope u have some idea...
It's already leaked... just do some searches and you'll find it. However, I hope everyone purchases it to support the artists. The label is not doing very well financially.
I'm addicted to rock music, but Shopongle its not music, its pure magic. Btw, heh, Raja Rama moves his hands like Charles Manson, in one of movies with him :D
One of the best tracks ever made. Shpongle and Simon Posford has always been a big kick in the nuts to all the idiots who think that electronic music isn't music at all. What they can do is something that most other so called musical geniuses isn't even close to. So much more creativity and work has been put into this than 99 percent of any rock or pop track that has been made.
Most electronical music is trash tho. Generic bullshit Shpongle, Infected Mushroom, Hallucinogen (Simon Posford) etc are our times beethoven and mozarts
