coulou's cafe trumpet meditations (no. 9)

hello my friends, i hope you've all had a lovely last week :)

i've just landed back in brooklyn so this is my last california meditation. i actually recorded this one right before i had to pack up and leave for my flight, i decided to go with whatever first chord progression came to mind. this one actually is in reference to a song i put out some years ago called vodka and lime, it felt warm and lush and very california. life's been a little bumpier these last few weeks, whenever i go through a fast and exciting period of life the comedown can be a bit of an adjustment. its always important to remind myself that everything exists in balance with its opposing force, to have any understanding of happiness you need to have felt what exists on the other side of that. so i understand it, but i still dont want to feel down lol. it feels good to be back in new york, heart feels a bit warmer and comfier. ive got so much music coming out that i am so so excited for, and i just realized an EP a couple days ago that you can find on any streaming platform. sending everybody lots of love, thank you for continuing on this journey with me and i'm going to keep trying my best to make a safe meditative space for you all to continue coming back to.

As always, you can stream my music on all platforms under "coulou"

Lots and lots and lots of love

At 35, I left behind my entire career in Korea and have been living in California for a year, dreaming of transformative changes in my life. Things haven't gone as planned, and it's been challenging, but I know that my determination and perseverance will shape who I become. I'm still getting used to the language and environment, but I believe things will improve, and good things are on the horizon. To everyone on a similar journey—stay strong!​

I'm in the middle of a jungle on an island in Malaysia, looking out of the window directly into the forest, it's raining softly ...and then this sound. Vibe 1000. Thank u!

Sometimes I realize how generous people are for taking their time to share their interests and talents. This absolutely makes me grateful, thank you so much for this!

I'm from Venezuela. We're facing the most troubling time right now. I've been so anxious and panicked that I couldn't sleep, but now I play your sets and can get calm.

I can't thank you enough for this.

I'm turning 25 today. Listening to this b4 going to work, eating noodles. Life's great. Thanks for the tunes!

Sitting by my window in my Berlin apartment, on a windy, cloudy Sunday listening to this. The windows are closed coz it's cold and windy but this music makes me feel it coming through my car's window as I drive down the highway underneath the fiery sunset sky somewhere in India, back during my roadtripping days there.

Such an incredible gift to find you when 90% of music on YouTube is generated by AI now. We appreciate you, real human musicians!

Listen to this while having coffee in the morning, birds singing, sun shining. Beautiful day, innit? Thank you for sharing ❤

I’m here again, but this time it feels different from before. I got a phone call from my brother, and he said he wants me to escape from this place, but I still couldn’t do it. I was heavily depressed about my life the whole night until 2 AM. After crying a lot, YouTube recommended this video to me again, and I felt relieved for a while and finally fell asleep. Thanks, COULOU

I wish everyone reading this comment peace in their life and that they get what they want ❤
May god bless u all

I love the trumpet when the sound is "dry", cool and expressive like this.

[itsliamhoney]

there's nothing better than when im with my teapot, the early morning sun and listening to your vibes Coulou - thank you for expressing yourself here :) may the steady rise and fall of life's ups and downs bring you lasting wisdom and effervescence in your work

[katharinareis]

This gave me INSTANT peace. Thank you! I was anxious and overthinking but then I clicked on this video and everything just calmed down. Wow.

[CarolLasch]

Now I can truly understand how amazingly God bless the ones that are willing to bless others. thank you for blessing us with this delightful song COULOU 🤍

[amgdismantler]

Playing this in my backyard, the atmosphere and vibe always good with this… reporting live from Los Angeles…keep up the good work. That trumpet though… amazing…

[nataliamabel]

Your video description is exactly what I needed right now. Have a blessed day, everyone!

It makes sense why this music has sparked and touched so many people. I feel the music-- powerful in the feeling you pour out into it. It's those sweet moments of in between...not necessarily for stage or studio, but happening in the quiet corners of the earth when no one is really watching...when we're alone to just be. Keep making music coulou - you have something inside you that's meant to be shared...this is where you harness your magic the most. In those quiet moments.

As I’m about to sleep, hearing such a beautiful sound fills my heart and makes me smile before bed. Thanks 💕

I've been playing these on loop and was thrilled when I noticed this was posted 33 minutes ago! Can't get enough.
