IS BETTER AT OWNING RECORDS THAN MIXING THEM

Some time ago I worked for a Berlin based NGO called MICT while running Jakarta Records. During this time I helped organize a recording session in Tunisia with 9 female singers and musicians from Tunisia, Libya & Egypt together with Oddisee and Olof Dreijer of The Knife. "Nouh Al Hamam" by egyptian singer Maryam Saleh is the first leak of the project. You can pre-order the vinyl here. Below you can find the infos for this project....

A little less then three years ago the political situation in many countries of the Arab world changed dramatically. Uprisings started in rural areas of Tunisia and from there spread to various countries in the region. Millions gathered in the streets united by their demand for more democracy, rights and participation in the political process. In most cases the reaction of the governing dictators were relentless and severe towards every form of protests. Violence in the streets of Cairo, Tunis and Bengasi escalated and resulted in the overthrow of the governments in Tunisia, Egypt and Lybia.
A year later a group of female singers and musicians from Tunisia (Nawel Ben Kraiem, Badiaa Bouhrizi, Medusa, Houwaida), Libya (Nada) and Egypt (Donia Massoud, Maryam Saleh, Youssra El Hawary) met in Mohsen Matri Studio in Tunis to sing- against corruption, despotism, patronization and narrow-mindedness. The song with Syrian artist Rasha Rizk was recorded some months later in her political asylum in Cairo. Sudanese/American producer Oddisee and Olof Dreijer of the Swedish pop duo The Knife joined the session, participating in the creation of the musical backdrop as well as the often multi-instrumentalist female singers. For the vinyl edition producers such as Brenk, Blackjoy and Blundetto contributed remix versions of the project.

At the time and still today especially musicians and especially women were and are trapped in a spiral of repression, discrimination and violence. "Sawtuha" (Arabic for "her voice"), the album that is the product of the 2-week session, is a vital encouraging testament of rebellion against the repression of democratic rights, gender inequality, and lack of inclusion. The music is an organic mixture of traditional Arabic music, regional influences and various forms of contemporary Western musical genres. A mixture that may sound contradicting at first but makes total sense once you listen to the music.

The studio session was organized by the Berlin based NGO MICT (Media In Cooperation And Transition) and was funded by the German Federal Foreign Office.

In our new 150Session we travel to Paris and shed a light on some musical adventures that took place in La Ville Lumière in the past 10 to 15 years. Our trip is not entitled to completeness and has been guided by subjective emotions only. We chose music by artist such as Ark, Doctor L, Chloe, Ivan Smagghe, K.I.M., Tony Allen and more. If you like to catch some Parisian spirits in moving pictures, sit down and watch: Paris qui dort (Fr 1925); Cléo from 5 to 7 (Fr 1962); C'etait un Rendez-Vous (Fr 1976).

EP is out late August on Disco Halal!
EP TRACKLIST:
A1. Ready Set Go
A2. Ready Set Go (Saturn Memories Tahini Mix)
B1. 10K from Essaouira
B2. The Race For The Handshake

In this offering by the Berlin-based and made in the Middle East label Disco Halal, We bring you something fresh from Tel Aviv. Naduve, after releases in Rothmans, and CDA, it's time for him to come back home accompanied by Saturn Memories (Marius of Coma) special Tahini remix.
One of us shaking hands with one of them. The handshake is thought by some to have originated as a gesture of peace by demonstrating that the hand holds no weapon. This ancient, short ritual took place several times, here, with some limited success. Has this ritual holds any meaning anymore? The race is long, long from being close to it's end. It's a race for a handshake.
This record is one of many efforts to make this race sound. This may sound naive now, or even pathetic, but what are we to do? When cousins meet in family dinner they might fight each other for raising the cup "The Father's name". This battle is soaked with the music of their family, they know each other by it's fabric. We wish to take them to the dance floor and play them music to shake hands to.


The Race For A Handshake EP

PREORDER

Naduve - The Race For A Handshake

Radio Cómeme - "El Disco es Cultura" 29 by Lord Byron

Between 1983 and 1990, you couldn’t go to a roller rink or nightclub without hearing the addictive strains of freestyle. Sometimes called Latin hip hop or Heartthrob, its Roland bass, effervescent minor-key synth melodies, and Latin-influenced percussion infected urban teenagers from New York to Miami to Chicago to L.A. In my case this sound reminds me my teenage days in my neighborhood, the beautiful land of Bello.
Tracklist include music from Newcleus / Freestyle / Kraftwerk / Information Society / Pet Shop Boys.
