{"product_id":"jl021-kobra-dsd-ep","title":"Kobra [DSD EP]","description":"\u003cem\u003eKobra\u003c\/em\u003e is the debut DSD EP by the Kobra Ensemble on NativeDSD's in house Just Listen label. It follows their debut on the Just Listen DSD 256 Sampler \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/product\/jl002-8-ensembles-in-1-bit\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e8 Ensembles In One Bit\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e where the Kobra Ensemble performs two songs.\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eKobra\u003c\/em\u003e is a cross-section of the Kobra Ensemble's broad repertoire, in which harmonies and timbres are central. Music with character, full of love and emotion, but never sugary.\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eKobra\u003c\/em\u003e begins with two folk songs about love. The first song, \u003cem\u003eKaval Sviri,\u003c\/em\u003e is a popular Bulgarian folk song about a flute player. A powerful song with addictive harmonies that you will want to keep diving into.\r\n\r\nFrom the extroverted final chord, Kobra moves on to the intimate beginning of \u003cem\u003eEzili,\u003c\/em\u003e a song from Haiti. In the alternation of hushed chords and exuberant rhythms, intense sadness and the celebration of love may coexist.\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eThe Ludions\u003c\/em\u003e form a light-hearted interlude: five small poems about striking animals, romantic pain, and exotic love. Léon-Paul Fargue's Dadaist texts are full of children's and gibberish, which mainly have meaning in sound. Erik Satie's original was arranged by Gustavo Trujillo for the Kobra Ensemble.\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eKobra\u003c\/em\u003e ends with two lullabies, in very different forms. \u003cem\u003eUntil the Sleep\u003c\/em\u003e is a particularly precious piece for Kobra. Hayo Boerema's modern classical composition has never been recorded before. The beautiful text by Ida Gerhardt is a call to surrender to the night.\r\n\r\nFinally, the fairytale-like \u003cem\u003eHushabye Mountain\u003c\/em\u003e reassures the listener. In the flowing arrangement by Kobra's own Nina Rompa, you don't have to do anything but sail along to a place where you can be without worries.\r\n\r\nIn short, \u003cem\u003eKobra\u003c\/em\u003e is a patchwork of music, brought together by Kobra's versatile musicianship.\r\n\r\n\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter wp-image-194197 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Kobra-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\"\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eKobra Ensemble\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\nIngrid Doude van Troostwijk\r\nKarlijn Hamer\r\nLonneke Kegels\r\nLea Klarenbeek\r\nSterre Konijn\r\nNina Rompa\r\nSaskia Voorbach\r\n\u003ch2\u003eMaking of Video\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jVtgFHOaeKI\u0026amp;t","brand":"Just Listen Records","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203623748,"sku":null,"price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203656516,"sku":"JL021-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57330203689284,"sku":"JL021-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57330203722052,"sku":"JL021-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203754820,"sku":"JL021-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203787588,"sku":"JL021-15","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203820356,"sku":"JL021-16","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57330203853124,"sku":"JL021-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57330203885892,"sku":"JL021-18","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57330203918660,"sku":"JL021-19","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 512 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203951428,"sku":"JL021-21","price":35.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57330203984196,"sku":"JL021-22","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":57330204016964,"sku":"JL021-23","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57339119468868,"sku":"JL021S1417","price":14.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57339119501636,"sku":"JL021S1517","price":15.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57339119534404,"sku":"JL021S1617","price":18.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57339119567172,"sku":"JL021S69","price":9.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57339119599940,"sku":"JL021S710","price":9.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/JL021_d550dcb1-cdc7-4f53-9dd6-40488df5f4ed.jpg?v=1790339436","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/jl021-kobra-dsd-ep","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
