Eshkona MIQEDEM
Por um escritor misterioso
Last updated 16 julho 2024
Miqedem’s third album, Eshkona (“I will rest”) is the band’s most collaborative and instrumentally diverse album to date, and includes guest appearances from many of the band’s friends in the Israeli world-music scene.
Initial pre-production took place from January to March 2021, at the hight of the pandemic and Israel’s tight movement restrictions. It was during this time that the three songwriters of the band moved into a friend’s attic in Tel Aviv’s Neve Tzedek neighborhood, where they set up a makeshift recording studio and began fleshing out ideas and recording demo tracks by themselves.
Due to the fact that not all of the band was living in Israel at the time, production was halted in March ’21, but in early ’22, when the band was able to re-unite in Israel on a permanent basis, production resumed. This time the band enlisted the help of producer/engineer Shahar Kaufman, whose studio, Onyx Studio, is located in the idyllic Upper Galillee region of Israel, in the small town of Rosh Pina.
In a statement from the band, Shai Sol wrote, “we knew we wanted to work with Shahar. For one, I had just finished spending several weeks in Rosh Pina, and I had the pleasure of working with Shahar - and we totally hit it off. I knew that he’d understand exactly what Miqedem was trying to do, and his experience in recording ethnic instruments and producing world-music artists was just what we needed. Plus, his studio is in one of the most beautiful places in Israel. When you work there, you wake up every morning with a view of snowy Mt. Hermon. And the studio even has a stream running through its front yard. It was the kind of change we needed after spending almost three months in a Tel Aviv attic during lockdown!”
The album’s title (“Eshkona”, meaning “I will rest”) takes its name from the fourth track, Ever Kayona (Wings of a Dove), that says, “Oh that I had the wings of a dove, I would fly away and be at rest”, a sentiment reflected throughout the album, both lyrically and musically.
In a further statement, Jamie Hilsden added, “Our previous albums have a lot of pretty up-tempo songs, but when we listened back to the record we noticed that we wrote a much more restful album than in the past, and I think that’s not a coincidence. It was written during such an awful and stressful - and unstable - period of time. So I’m not surprised that we were writing such calm music. We were probably trying to soothe ourselves! Same goes for the lyrics we were drawn to. There are a lot of images of rest on the album.”
The album’s artwork was drawn and designed by Tel Aviv illustrator, Noa Goffer, and references the many images related to plant-life found on the record.
Regarding the artwork, Yaron Cherniak states, “We got to Noa Goffer through the recommendation of our mutual friend Sharona Cantor, who we enlisted as our art director. We had seen Noa’s work around before, but as soon as we all sat down to choose an artist, we all felt that Noa was right for this record. She has such a unique way of depicting nature, plant-life and the animal kingdom in almost child-like drawing in her art. We knew that if we gave her the record, and she heard all the imagery we ended up using on it, she’d know just what to do.””
The album was mixed by Dan Zeitune, and Mastered by Aran Lavi.
