Comment:
An LP about birds. This is named after the Persian poetry collection Mantiq al-Tayr (Conference of the Birds) by Farid al-Din Attar.Feedback:
This is very nice (listening to it now)! Nicely selected & sequenced (cool art, too). I'll be burning this one to disc as it's a keeper. Thanks for the link.
looks awesome. one of the best themes i've seen for a mix on this site. also... i've been looking for that "Mantiq al-Tayr" book ever since reading that wild Borges story inspired by it ("The Approach to Al-Mu'tasim"). have you read it through?
gl, thank you. I know how rare it is that I like a download of someone's mix enough to make an album of it.
abangaku, no, I haven't -- I learned about it from that story too.
