Press Release:
‘Bruce Parry presents Amazon / Tribe - Songs for Survival'.
BRUCE PARRY BRINGS TOGETHER MUSIC WORLD'S BRIGHTEST STARS FOR ‘SURVIVAL' ALBUM
Bruce Parry, star of the BBC series ‘Tribe' and the forthcoming ‘Amazon', has teamed up with some of the music world's brightest stars to create a fundraising album for Survival International, the human rights organization for tribal peoples.
Bruce has worked with producer Martin Terefe on the album that includes KT Tunstall, will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas), Johnny Borrell (Razorlight), Mystery Jets, Jason Mraz, Yusuf Islam, Hot Chip, the Go! Team and Mike Oldfield. In addition, Guy Berryman (Coldplay), Jonas Bjerre (MEW), Magne F. (A-ha) and Terefe have formed a new band specially for the CD called Apparatjik, and recorded a track that will also be used for the end credits of Amazon. Every track on the album is exclusive, and has been written especially for the project.
The first half of the album is entitled ‘Amazon' and features songs inspired by Bruce Parry's new series of the same name, to be shown on BBC2 in September. The second half, entitled ‘Tribe', is a collection of dance/experimental songs which all use samples of tribal music Bruce recorded when living with the indigenous people during the making of his hugely popular BBC show Tribe.
Bruce Parry has spent years immersing himself in some of the world's most remote tribal cultures. His first hand experience of the threats so many tribal people face to their very survival lay behind his determination to help them. He said today, ‘I've got so much from my time with tribal people that I really wanted to do something for them in return. Being able to bring together this fantastic group of musicians seemed like a perfect way of doing that - and it's been wonderful to see how they've been inspired, in turn, by some of the incredible tribal music we've recorded.'
Bruce's new 6 part series Amazon starts on BBC2 in the autumn. The album will be released digitally on September 22 on iTunes and a physical CD will be released on October 6th in the UK.

Zitat
Coldplay and A-ha Collaborate
16 September 2008Coldplay’s Guy Berryman has teamed up with A-ha and Mew for TV’s ‘Amazon’. new band Apparatjik also features Mew's Jonas Bjerre
Admitting a love for A-ha on Xfm is one thing. Joining forces with the Norse pop titans from the 80s is another thing entirely. Coldplay bassist Guy Berryman, however, has hooked up with A-ha’s Magne F and Jonas Bjerre from pop odd-bods Mew to soundtrack Bruce Parry’s new TV programme, Amazon.
The trio formed the band Apparatjik especially for the project. The wonderfully titled ‘Ferreting’ is the result and closes the show which sees Parry venturing down the Amazon from its source to the sea.
‘Ferreting’ is the opening track on the fundraising album which accompanies the series, ‘Amazon Tribe – Songs For Survival’. The album is out on October 6 or available to download from iTunes now. -
öööh, ohje, 4x 50 min, das schaff ich heut beim besten Willen nicht mehr , aber der Anfang klang schon mal vielversprechend...

Übrigens auch Hinweis im deutschen TV - schaltet mal auf den RTL Text Seite 181. Da steht auch was davon.

Schlägt schon ganz schön große Wellen dieses Projekt...
Der Name "Coldplay" bewegt da glaube ich einiges...
Zeigt mal wieder das Potential, was da wäre, wenn sich beide Bands mal zu einem richtigen großen Projekt zusammen tun würde...
Ich denke, mal abgesehen von einem neuen "Hammeralbum" mit richtig guter Promo, gäbe es kaum eine bessere Möglichkeit der Welt zu zeigen, dass es a-ha noch gibt und dass sie immer noch gute Musik machen...Übrigens: Wie ich vorhin hörte, stand Magne heute mit Coldplay in Oslo auf der Bühne und sie haben zusammen "Hunting high and low gespielt"...
