Elliot Knapp - "Zhess" - Koenjihyakkei cover

One of three fan-chosen cover song home recordings I made for contributors to a Kickstarter campaign that helped fund my recent album, Cheap Seats at the Cartesian Theater. I decided to go for an all-acoustic sort of avant-folk sound on this one. Thank goodness the liner notes have the lyrics, as you probably know they're in a made-up language! I also snuck in a bit of a tongue-in-cheek Magma reference as well, since it's Zeuhl, after all--we can't really take it too seriously!

Original performer - Koenjihyakkei, from Hundred Sights of Koenji, composed by Tatsuya Yoshida.

Elliot Knapp sings and plays acoustic guitar, bass clarinet, alto saxophone, recorder, djembe, shakers, tambourine, bells.
