Tribes of Asaph Talks About From Above 

Bluegreenland Records:
Welcome, let’s keep the interview simple this time without too many metaphors so that everyone can understand. Also, tone down the sarcasm and try not to use any sentences that require critical thinking and any words that promote deeper thought.

Tribes of Asaph:
Okay.

Bluegreenland Records:
People who have heard the album find it hard to have any conversation while listening to it. Why is that?

Tribes of Asaph:
In simple language the songs are like a bullhorn with words and melody that gets your attention immediately, tuning out all mundane daily talk and amplifying whatever feelings the listener has. For example, if you listen to Salt and Ashes while having suicidal thoughts, refrain from standing next to a cliff edge. If you feel brave, you will feel even more fearless and paddle out into the raging ocean to ride giant waves.

Bluegreenland Records:
What is the ideal way to listen to the songs?

Tribes of Asaph:
Definitely with good earphones or speakers while sitting outside at night looking at the stars, perhaps with a can of cold light fermented wheat water filled with carbonation. Don’t ever play it through phone speakers.

Bluegreenland Records:
People love locations and numbers, give them some. Where was this album recorded?

Tribes of Asaph:
This album was recorded a 45 minute scooter ride away from the sea. It is material compiled from a decade of living in reality. It took a year to narrow down the song list from a hundred to ten so that the songs flow like an emotional roller coaster.

Bluegreenland Records:
Who produced this album and why does it have such a unique sound that do not fit in any indie folk playlist?

Tribes of Asaph:
The legendary producer Aleksandra Neznaeva of Alexis U. Productions and her team produced this album. We are not allowed to discuss the production secrets. However, a healthy breakfast every morning and a swimming pool to unwind after recording sessions definitely helped.

Bluegreenland Records:
Are there any famous people on any of the recordings?

Yes, the track Just Passing Through features the one and only Mermaid From The Stars.

Bluegreenland Records:
Why is the album called From Above and what does the track mean?

Tribes of Asaph:
From Above is a cry of mortals towards the unseen. An appeal to the universe for things to make sense and the answer that we are not alone, the encouraging voice of triumph of good over evil.

Bluegreenland Records:
Thank you for your time and keeping it simple this time.

Tribes of Asaph:
It was my pleasure.
