The CD Hangklang of Alexandra Zvekan was produced in 2004. Thanks for listing!
November 15th, 2007 at 11:55 pm
I was mistaken about the track on Handmade. The YouTube link I had was for a song called ‘Mono Desire’, a solo piece that is not on Handmade. Here is a YouTube of some of the songs from the live concert that is on the CD/DVD combo:

Hi andi,

dear webmaster,
Thank you for mentioning the CD I made for the Oreade label by the name of Earth Chakras. Unfortunately when you click on the cd the link goes to the wrong site. I would be happy if you could repair that to www.oreade.com. Also on myspace/earthchakra there is more info about the album and on www.soundclick.com/musicforhang there is a lot of freely downloadable Hang music.
Thanks a lot - all the best
Joshua

Hi Joshua,
the failure is corrected. Thanks for the hint.

I understand that the Soundtrack (and DVD) for the film The Astronaut Farmer features Hang.
http://www.amazon.com/Astronaut-Farmer-Stuart-Matthewman/dp/B000MGVBXM/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1199354282&sr=8-1
I only heard it in the ‘Funeral’ sample from Amazon.com. I’ll rent the DVD and see what I can see.
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:05 pm
I think the instrument you can hear in “Funeral” is a steelpan.
February 1st, 2008 at 3:32 pm
According to a comment on YouTube the track Falling Away with You by Muse on the ABSOLUTION album supposedly uses Hang for the first verse.
Sadly Amazon doesn’t have a taste of the first verse, so I can’t confirm it.

…gracias a quienes han creado esto y a quienes verdaderamente ” juegan ” con el hang y la alegria de la musica y las vibraciones del amor…

I have a new CD called Hollow Bone that features two tracks (track 3 and 9) of hang. You can hear the CD at my website or at CD Baby. Would love to be included on your CD index.

Hello ThereHang Lovers,
a new album is released ‘Zharbia’ by Karim Eharruyen that features Hang on track 3. (5:38). Order and listen at www.karimeharruyen.com
The Oreade album by the title of Earth Chakras is bringing me around - I had the honour to perform solo Hang (and video record) while playing before and in between the presentation of Dan Millman. The clips are on youtube.
The other unforgettable event was to play solo Hang for over an hour while Dr.Deepak Chopra was sitting on the edge of the stage just taking time to listen, speak, greet and make a personal comment in books for the seemingly endless row of people who were part of the audience for his lecture in Amsterdam.
The performance before and in between that event are registered and released on CD available at Oreade.com.
All the best and till soon
Joshua
ps respect to Felix AND Sabina for making this wonderful instrument.

Hey, does anybody know how I can get in touch with Christian Hulsmann? I am trying to gain permission to use a song from his album in an upcoming ballet competition. I tried emailing what is on his CD, but my email came back. Thanks.
July 24th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
Hi Rosalie Cirio,
sorry, I also only know his e-mail address mentioned on his CD-Cover. This e-mail address doesn’t work since several months. I have no means to contact him otherwise and do not know anyone who can.
August 5th, 2008 at 1:09 am
Another “one-off” Hang track is “Old Fools Game” from Gongs “Acid Motherhood” cd. Don’t expect any other Hang niceities on this album though as it’s a bit noisy!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:06 pm
Hi Nick,
the CD is added. Thank you for the information.
