We are very happy to present Pøbel and their first album Lux Luminum. It will be released 2017 05 13 on CD (available for order at www.poebel.dk and here at www.monophon.se), and on all the usual digital music download stores. Streaming release is set to follow in September this year.
Dressed in historically correct 1470-clothes and armed with shawms, flutes, bagpipes, drums, fiddle, hurdy gurdy and lute, Pøbel bring the audience back in time aided by facts and stories of the instruments and melodies. If granted the opportunity, they will happily put on the dancing shoes.
Pøbel is an old Scandinavian word for mob or crowd. As the name suggests, Pøbel like to focus on the music of the common man – the music that ordinary people could have experienced at the faire or at other festive occasions around medieval Europe.
The album Lux Luminum is certainly a good case in point, with it’s colourful parade of folklorical and well-arranged medieval tunes from both Scandinavia and other parts of the World.
Oh, and don’t forget to bring your own dancing shoes.
All tracks arranged by Pøbel Special guest on ”Lullaby” Agnes Åhlund Produced and recorded by Troels Alsted at his studio (2017) ”Grand Banquet” recorded by Michael Caplin at Skurups Folkhögskola (2014) Mixed by Troels Alsted & Pøbel Mastering by Per Tidstrand Photos by Benjamin Tarp Cover layout by Mads Kjøller-Henningsen
Finally it is time for Tangarte’s new record Lo que vendrá to see the light of day. And as if that weren’t enough, it is also the first release from monophon as a record label!
We start by celebrating at Barnens scen in Malmö on October, 26, 2007 at 7 pm for invited and from 8.30 pm for everyone, where there also will be a short live performance. The record will be sold at a reduced price for that evening. The record will also be available through iTunes music store and other download services.
For a start the physical record will only be available at concerts or by order in the shop, but later on we will try to get it distributed to stores as well.
Lo que vendrá is the name of the latest record by Orquesta Típica Tangarte. The album is available on iTunes music store (in the new plus format with better audio quality and without copy protection) and several other download services, just as the last record. For a start the physical record will only be available at shows or at www.monophon.se, but later on we hope to get it to record stores as well.
