Traces, music for films & documentaries

by Michel Banabila

supported by

Philip Graham I'm slowly making my way through the treasures of Michel Banabila's discography. This album displays his evocative music for film.
And one added bonus: several tracks feature, besides guitars, electronics and fretless bass, the wonderfully expressive violin of Salar Asid.
Sandhya Sanjana makes a very cool vocal appearance too. Favorite track: Bicycle Exotica (featuring Salar Asid).
