AnimaminimalisM (2016) by Thee Most eeElusive Orkestra

Thee Most eeLusive Orkestra - An/Anima/Animal/Animism/Animalism/Minimalism/Mal/Ism

Archival release of mostly unfinished and unpolished album originally conceived somewhere in 2011-2013. Many themes and tunes here originate from synth sketches from 2012 recorded in Moscow.
They were being reworked and enhanced until 2016 until, alas, finally abandoned. Most of them were originally recorded live with multitracking.

Intro and Outro was recorded to restore a feeling of epic 6 hours long improvised set played in the Swamp in 2015 and track 12 also uses some samples from there.
6 bonus tracks are included illustrate the evolution of songs.

Fun fact: music from this album was used by our friends as 1 April prank pretending as a new album from one famous anonymous band.

Fun fact 2: Kookaracca was the very first preset recorded on Ultranova, just very first hours of tweaking.
Percussion was recorded in several takes with Nekoth.

Last but not the least fun fact 3 - Llama Lounge features solo by Vasiliy "Mushroomer" Kashnikov and we also tried to collaborate on Kookaracca (on percussion)
