Steve Jansen single on iTunes

Postby inkinthewell on Fri Sep 07, 2007 5:47 pm

Hello. This is my first post, and I hope someone can help me with this: I was mucking about on the iTunes music store and I came up with a Steve Jansen single called 'Now he dreams'. I got it in no time, of course, but I haven't been able to find anything about it on the internet, not even on Steve's site.
Does anybody know if this is a preview of his solo album, or what the hell it is?
By the way: it's great!

P.S. on the iTunes store, whilst the title is in english, Steve's name appears in japanese characters!
P.P.S. Always on iTunes: a Penguin Café Orchestra Tribute by various artists has been added, and Steve's on that too!

Steve's album is already available for pre-order on cdjapn - the title (according to this site) is "Slope" with and October 24 release date. Here's the link - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=PVCP-8782

The PCO album was mentioned a while back on Steve's site, but haven't heard if it's been released or not.

As usual, Samadhisound is the last to provide any update. Who runs the website for them, or do they manage it themselves?

Interesting. The release date on iTunes says 14th March 2007 with the label as "Flavour Of Sound"

Flavour Of Sound is a Japanese label that has released previous Jansen related items.

Odd it hasn't been mentioned in despatches. Sounds quite nice btw - nothing startling, an instrumental, but very Jansen.

If you don't want to buy in case it is on the upcoming album, you can listen to it on Lastfm

I think the item you're referring to is this release from 2001 - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=FVCC-80133

The song on iTunes is on this album, but I understand the song is older than this release.

Thanks for the heads up. I love this song muchly, in trying to describe why I descend into using phrases like its aaalll chimey and tinkley so I shall go no further into analysis lest I appear even more stupid...

Its a nice accompaniment to a wandering mind.

Like water and sand
Will loose it's way when you're gone"
