After the Rain

This Hebrew song, written and composed by Tamar&Netanel, talks about nature's cycle and its important connection to our soul. Soema Montenegro's stunning vocals in Spanish and Guaraní (indigenous language of her ancestors) gives the piece its warmth and mystic sound of nature's ancient motherhood, Moshe Elmakias on keyboard and Tamar&Netanel's male-female vocals reflect the male and female forces in nature.

Reverdecer (To Green)

This composition is a call, a prayer. A dialogue between humanity and the earth, seeking to remedy the damage, seeking to strengthen awareness. In this song, the voice of a woman sings to seek to remedy this lack of consciousness into which humanity has fallen, offering its own blood, body, and bones. Adding to it is the voice and prayer of a man from across Africa, calling on humanity to protect endangered species. From the instrumentation, we seek to amalgamate the sound worlds of the Latin American Andes and Madagascar.
