THIS IS OF IMPORTANCE: neither do we collect friends, nor do we try to hav tons

hello friends in space
been part of this space for 18 months and it's been a real pleasure.

receiving so many reactions, getting befriended by so many talented folks has proven very encouraging. THANX for your support and attention.

a couple of things of importance :

i see our My Space page as a real network uniting like-minded people who create, or are truly passionate for great and parallel musics.

If i have listed you as my friend, this means that I either know you, or you are a band that I like, or I appreciate your activities..

I dont blind add anyone so If you are a band and you are reading this.. then I've been onto your Space, listened to your music and I liked it and like what you are about, If I didn't I wouldn't have added you..

for the people that arent in bands, I've read your profile and think you are part of our world and could enjoy our music.

have a nice day
philippe

Our Moon Is Full (available to order now)

Central Control International is pleased to announce the release of the debut album by Strings of Consciousness, 'Our Moon Is Full'.

Feel free to listen to it all there:
http://www.virb.com/stringsofconsciousness

Hello this is a message from CCI label,

In September of 2007 Central Control International will be unveiling Strings of Consciousness onto the wider-world.

Starting life as a small group of musicians from Marseilles, France, the ensemble expanded by recruiting like-minded musicians from across the Globe. Their unique sound has been likened to latter-day Talk Talk, Angelo Badalamenti, Do Make Say Think, Tortoise and Arab Strap ñ often in the same breath.

Our Moon Is Full features vocal collaborations from J.G. Thirlwell (Foetus), Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys), Eugene Robinson (Oxbow), Lisa Smith-Klossner, Pete Simonelli (Enablers), Black Sifichi and BA.

The album will be released in stages across the world in September, but you can pre-order directly from CCI as of now on CD and LP with a view of the record arriving with you on the UK release date of September 10! Please visit our online store for details and to listen to tracks from Our Moon Is Full.

Go there now.

The price to buy direct is £12 inc. postage to anywhere you want in the world!

What the press have said:

ìAbsolutely gloriousî ñ Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC Radio 1

ìA mix of jazzist post-rock search, a la Tortoise, over the lushly martial surge of late-period Talk Talkî ñ Dusted

ìHaunting, unpredictable and curiously feel good at the same timeî - XLR8R

We have just added Strings of Consciousness T-Shirts into the store, which you can buy along with the album for a special pre-order price.

Strings of Consciousness will also be performing at Londonís Luminaire on the albumís UK release date of September 10, alongside special guests and DJs. Please follow the following link for details, or buy tickets direct from our online store. www.theluminaire.co.uk

We hope to see you there and that you enjoy Our Moon Is Full. We give thanks once again for your continued support of Central Control.


Yours,
CCI
