The new Banco de Gaia artist album titled Farewell Ferengistan is not far off now; it is set for release on June 12th in Europe and July 4th, 2006 in North America.
According to De Gaia, the music on Farewell Ferengistan is the wondrous mixture of exotic and urbane we have come to expect from Banco de Gaia: tantalizing vocals, haunting instrumentation, uptempo, downtempo, futuristic and ancient.
Banco De Gaia began as a solo project of Toby Marks producing a variety of dance and chill-out music often featuring tribal samples. After several tape-only albums, Banco was signed to Planet Dog where he received much wider recognition. Banco expanded into a band in 1997 and later moved to his own Gecko label.
