Buddha Machine v3

Chan Fang, which translates as “Zen Room,” sees FM3 swap drones and tones from their first two Buddha releases for unadulterated classical loops.

 

All tracks were composed and performed on the Qin, a seven-string zither revered as the grand-daddy of Chinese instruments. Deep sonorous tuning and complex harmonic overtones give the Qin a contemplative and soothing voice.

 

Turn on Chan Fang and soundtrack your life. Tweak the pitch to match your mood. Pair it with another Buddha Machine for a pocket orchestra to enlighten your morning commute, long bath, thinking, reading, relaxing, romancing…

 

Our UK distributor, Cargo, is now taking orders. USA orders will begin soon. Chan Fang will be shipping early December 2010.

Looks like Bleep has these already on pre-order to ship 22nd November - http://bleep.com/index.php?page=stock_details&releaseid=338

Hmm, I'm dubious about picking up this one - Having just the Qin instrument for the tracks (which I'm not really a fan of) rather that the ambient drones of the last two doesn't really appeal to me.

was just looking at these

if I'm getting one it's going to have to be two or nothing

saying that I've tons of drone music and a Buddha Machine album somewhere that I never seem to listen too

i might get 1.. the last Buddha machine i bought is now fucked cos the cheapo batteries it came with leaked all inside. it had some real nice tunes on it too :(
