Magica Fountain


The early SoulJahm songs include "Karl-Marx-Allee", "Suzanne" and this song, "Magica Fountain".  They were all written around March/April 2011 in Budapest on ukulele and melodica.  These songs eventually became the basis of the 'Sketches of Europa' recordings we have been working on over the last couple of years.

We recorded a piano track and drums for "Magica Fountain" when we reached Milan in summer 2011 but have yet to finish that version so here is a preview of an early version, shortly after the song was written.  We recorded this in the same apartment we shot the "Suzanne" video.
