TRIGAIDA is the latest musical phenomena to have come out of the small but colorful contemporary electronic scene of Eastern Europe’s Bulgaria. The folktronica trio is formed by multi-instrumentalist Georgi Marinov (Horhe), folklore singer Asya Pincheva, and multifaceted electronic producer Ivan Shopov.

ELATE is the debut full-length offering of the project and is a unique blend of traditional Bulgarian folklore and contemporary electronic music, which is also generously sprinkled with influences ranging from contemporary jazz, to world music and neoclassical thanks to the plethora of world-class guest musicians, who were also involved in the album. The artwork of ELATE is based on an oil piece by Bulgarian graffiti pioneer Nasimo.

In ELATE the talented trio is not alone in their journey. In an attempt to expand their musical landscape, by embracing an even wider variety of world music languages, they have invited world-renowned collaborators among which Theodosii Spasov (kaval), Dimitar Bodurov (piano), Akira Uschida (clavichord, saxophone), Maxim Anokhin (programming), Burak Malcok (ney), Ace Vaptsarov (guitar, strings arrangement), Mariya Dimitrova (back vocals), Neyko Bodurov (trumpet), Tayfun Ateş (percussion) and Güldeste Mamaç (violin). Their contributions allowed TRIGAIDA to add even more nuances to their already innovative and exciting musical palette.

TRIGAIDA commissioned the artwork of ELATE to world-acclaimed Bulgarian graffiti artist Nasimo. Active since the early 90s and considered one of the most important graffiti and fine art muralists on the Balkans, Nasimo is a regular collaborator of Ivan Shopov. In his current work, the artist is equally focused on muralism and studio painting, further developing his signature style and vision.

TRIGAIDA - ELATE

“Dhumavati” is a collaborative full-length album between Turkish-Polish duo Mahlukat and Bulgarian producer Ivan Shopov. It appears in a world that tries to alienate and separate us from each with each passing day only to prove that it is through art that we can endure and resist whatever reality throws at us. In this shared world, which three musicians from three different corners of the world have managed to create there are no borders, no prejudices, no musical barriers. “Dhumavati” was created and recorded in 10 days and it perfectly conveys its impulsive, intuitive and sincere origin. However, thanks to its outstanding production, courtesy of Ivan Shopov’s meticulous attention to sound crafting, the album has become not only a documentation of a beautiful and shared experience between him and Mahlukat but into a captivating, next-level musical experience, which will remain in your mind long after the last notes in the record have faded out. We’ve already established that singer and violinist Güldeste Mamaç, percussionist Kasia Kadłubowska, and electronic producer Ivan Shopov are no strangers to collaboration, so it comes as no surprise that “Dhumavati” welcomes contributions from an array of guest musicians, among which Julian Maier-Hauff (trumpet), Theodosii Spassov (kaval), Evan Hatfield (sitar), Amalgamy (gaida, kaval, gadulka), Peter Hinz (vocals and tabla) and Laila Mahmoud (kanun). They additionally expand the record's musical palette and widen its already vast field of influences and musical nuances. Together they expand the record's musical palette and widen its already vast field of influences, thus allowing the already blurry boundaries between downtempo, world music, folktronica, and cinematic atmospheric music to fully disappear.

Time is a weird little thing. It can breathe life into our banal existence, but it can also crush us. Time unites and separates people. It’s often our only sole guide in history and a reference for social, cultural and political evolution. Our struggle to be constantly racing with it, is often the reason why we tend to feel detached from all that once shaped us. 

With “Kanatitsa” Ivan Shopov and Avigeya have created a bridge to the realm of Bulgarian folklore which is often forgotten and taken for granted, while the rest of the world finds it fascinating. Having embraced our folklore as their own creative pulse, they have shaped the album not as a showcase about how traditional music can co-exist with contemporary electronics, but as a homogeneous and organic body of work, where the boundaries of music and time don't exist. 

The album sees Ivan Shopov and Avigeya exploring a vast variety of genres. From the carefully structured ambient waves of the self-titled piece, to the deep chill out vibes in “Sluntse” – it's all a rollercoaster of music, which peaks not in the drum'n'bass or dubstep rooted tracks, but overall in its power and sincerity.

Theodosii Spassov & Ivan Shopov - InFusion

One of the toughest tasks which artists of today are facing is making listeners go back and revisit an album you released even just a while ago. Rarely do people replay and dig deeper within the realms of a certain record as much as they did in pre-internet times. No one is to blame as there’s just so much music to be experienced and only so little time. With “Kanatitsa”, their first collaborative album, Bulgaria’s favorite electronic multitasker Ivan Shopov and traditional folklore singers Avigeya showed they are pretty good at pouring new energy into their work. The full-length was originally released on a CD, which sold in epic numbers. Then it was revived on audiphile vinyl and was of course backed by numerous live performances reaching as far as the USA. We were constantly reminded of the record and listeners never stopped caring about it even though whole two years passed since “Kanatitsa” was first shown to the world. 

With “Kanatitsa Remixed” Shopov is taking the record to a whole new level by inviting 41 artists from all over the world to remix it. This results in an extensive amount of music, which shows “Kanatitsa” from tens of new angles but was still born and raised in the same soil where the original was planted, grew and blossomed. Almost every track from the album was remixed multiple times...

TRIGAIDA is the latest musical phenomena to have come out of the small but colorful contemporary electronic scene of Eastern Europe’s Bulgaria. The folktronica trio is formed by multi-instrumentalist Georgi Marinov (Horhe), folklore singer Asya Pincheva, and multifaceted electronic producer Ivan Shopov.

ELATE is the debut full-length offering of the project and is an unique blend of traditional Bulgarian folklore and contemporary electronic music, which is also generously sprinkled with influences ranging from contemporary jazz, to world music and neoclassical, thanks to the plethora of world-class guest musicians, who were also involved in the album. The artwork of ELATE is based on an oil piece by Bulgarian graffiti pioneer Nasimo.

The first single, album opener Sluntseto Trepti, will be released alongside a remix by Carmen Rizzo, a two-time Grammy Nominee electronic world music producer who has worked with artists from Coldplay to Ryuichi Sakamoto and Paul Oakenfold among others. The artwork for the single was created by Ivan Shopov.

TRIGAIDA’s Ivan Shopov is one of the artists who reinvented the European drum and bass in the early 2000s but his talents have shone in numerous genre-bending releases, which have continually showcased his passion for establishing a dialogue between Bulgaria’s musical roots and the current reincarnations of popular electronic music. His partners Georgi Marinov (Bulgarian bagpipe and didgeridoo) and Asya Pincheva (vocals) are also highly-regarded for their work with the Bulgarian world music supergroup ORATNITZA, a formation which has been exploring the translation of folklore music through the means of modern club music.

In ELATE the talented trio is not alone in their journey. In an attempt to expand their musical landscape, by embracing an even wider variety of world music languages, they have invited world-renowned collaborators among which Theodosii Spassov (kaval), Dimitar Bodurov (piano, programming), Akira Uschida (clavichord, saxophone), Maxim Anokhin (programming), Burak Malcok (ney), Ace Vaptsarov (guitar, strings arrangement), Mariya Dimitrova (back vocals), Neyko Bodurov (trumpet), Tayfun Ateş (percussion) and Güldeste Mamaç (violin).

TRIGAIDA - VITO ORO feat. Burak Malcok & Tayfun Ateş

10 years on from the conception of Outtallectuals in the form of a Facebook community, we're delighted to still be here, finetuning the label's signature sound in a never-ending global creative soup. 

Accordingly, 'Liminal Lore' celebrates OUTTA's first decade through a predictably collaborative roster, featuring the label regulars, as well as new contributors such as Bulgarian legends, Ivan Shopov and Theodossii Spassov, cinematic bass producer, Boketto, the deep ambient psychedelic dub techno duo of Arkaean and Unsung I, and POAN, Lo.Renzo's ambient side project with Giacomo Barbari. 

The concept of 'Lore' is sonified through the 'old world' influences of the album; through the sounds of nature, bulbul tarang, banjo, g clarinet, darbuka, hang drum, sarangi, slide guitars, violins, flutes & tribal percussions. 'Liminality' is, of course, through the celebration of a shifting decade, an in-between milestone for the label.

Inspired by the wisdom from the Vedic literature, such as Bhagavad Gita, this album's mission is to show the duality of our lives. The constant battle between the moods of ignorance, passion and good.
A journey to the deeper layers of our consciousness through sacred words and high voltage beats.

You are not who you think you are. You are not where you think you are. There is a prison around you but you don’t see its walls. There are invisible chains around your consciousness. You feel them sometimes…How do you escape from a prison that doesn’t exist? Why run away if you are convinced that this is your home?

The flash of knowledge illuminates your life and you see you and your cell for the first time. No matter how luxurious your prison is, you will never be happy there. It turns out the walls and chains are your lust, anger and greed. Now that you know your real enemies, how do you fight them?
You must embark on a quest for freedom. A journey to your own true self piercing through the layers of our false identities. You are much more. Find out your true colors.

Namedropping and highlighting pieces in this carefully curated selection of artists is pointless but you are now able to create your own tracklist, depending on your music preferences but without moving too far from the original or disrespecting the impressive musicianship that was shown in “Kanatitsa” on the first place. What else should we say? Enjoy the flight maybe.

One of the toughest tasks which artists of today are facing is making listeners go back and revisit an album you released even just a while ago. Rarely do people replay and dig deeper within the realms of a certain record as much as they did in pre-internet times. No one is to blame as there’s just so much music to be experienced and only so little time. With “Kanatitsa”, their first collaborative album, Bulgaria’s favorite electronic multitasker Ivan Shopov and traditional folklore singers Avigeya showed they are pretty good at pouring new energy into their work. The full-length was originally released on a CD, which sold in epic numbers. Then it was revived on audiphile vinyl and was of course backed by numerous live performances reaching as far as the USA. We were constantly reminded of the record and listeners never stopped caring about it even though whole two years passed since “Kanatitsa” was first shown to the world.

With “Kanatitsa Remixed” Shopov is taking the record to a whole new level by inviting 41 artists from all over the world to remix it. This results in an extensive amount of music, which shows “Kanatitsa” from tens of new angles but was still born and raised in the same soil where the original was planted, grew and blossomed. Almost every track from the album was remixed multiple times with the new versions ranging from drum and bass, trip-hop, hip-hop, IDM, ambient, trance and to techno. Namedropping and highlighting pieces in this carefully curated selection of artists is pointless but you are now able to create your own tracklist, depending on your music preferences but without moving too far from the original or disrespecting the impressive musicianship that was shown in “Kanatitsa” on the first place. What else should we say? Enjoy the flight maybe.
