El Camino Dorado
Creating this album took time. All instruments and vocals were played and sung live by us in our own home environment. Due to the very slow and staggered recording process, we continuously tinkered with the songs. A process that could have continued indefinitely. More and more numbers were added…until February of 2024 and it became clear that the time had come to conclude. This would be our biggest creation so far; letting go of this musical love child. The CD project has been very present in our lives over the past 2 years. These songs contain the energy and inspiration of all our ceremonial work from this period. El Camino Dorado or 'the Golden Path' emerged from the Season's Shift trajectory. The three arrows of this shamanic trajectory; black, white and red culminate in the Golden Path. This way of consciousness is an ideal breeding ground for something wonderful to arise. It's all 'this'. The divine is in everything, and it's GOLDEN! The Golden Path is an 'intention' for us.
Creating a dreamed vision into reality, here and now, together with the two of us, with our family, with our friends, la familia... with the whole world. We could not complete this CD project without the loving support of our 'Familia'. Thank you dear gentle sisters and brothers for your love. You were partly a source of inspiration for this album. Deep gratitude for our children Sterre, Maura and Ayden. Deep gratitude for 'La Familia-Tribe'. You are all our teachers, grateful for your lessons.

Songbook & Guitar Chordbook

If you prefer a digital songbook, you can also obtain this by ordering it by e-mail. Announcement: digital songbook El Camino Dorado After payment has been processed, we will send you the digital version.
PAPER SONGBOOK & GUITAR CHORD BOOK
PRICE: 35€
We once again paid a lot of attention to this beautiful work of art for the new songbook. Beautiful drawings and vibrations from visionary artists to get you in the mood, a real collectors item. For this CD project we chose to make only one paper booklet, a combination of the complete songbook and guitar chord book. A simple chord diagram is drawn for each song and the chord in question is listed below the text and which is currently being played in the song. Nice for the guitarists among you to not only sing along to the songs but also play them yourself. Even as a complete layman you can learn to play the guitar with our CDs and the Chordbook.
Ordering: you can obtain the song and chord book at our sessions or we can send it to you (price excludes shipping costs).
