The Midday Mix - OK EG (April '21)

"⁠A journey through time, and gender- exploring Dalit womanhood and Dravidian masculinity through an anti-caste and trans lens. Bounded and centred by an all-Dalit & Tamil Greek chorus consisting of photographer Jaisingh Nageshwaran, scholar Dr. Roja Singh, community oragniser Grace Banu and wise young woman Ritu Elizabeth Samuel, soundtracked by rapper nasbandi - and me."

R.Talitha Samuel is a cultural producer based in New Delhi. 
Featuring only guest experts from caste-oppressed communities, Clear Blue Skies S1: Experiencing Ambedkar (2021-23) was a radical political theory podcast that Samuel hosted & edited. It built on the final year seminar Samuel developed & led, which was the first university-level course on anti-caste thought across Turtle Island. Currently, the larger project of Clear Bue Skies Productions is expanding into mixed media collaging, experimental research-based narrative soundscapes & sonic ethnography.

An unassuming revolutionary in Australian music, there are few local parallels for what moktar is now achieving, having more in common with scenes and artists emanating out of the UK, US or the Middle East instead. He has carved a singular lane for himself, exploring an exuberant and irrepressible combination of Arabic and Middle Eastern instrumentation, rhythms, melodies and tonalities with rattling techno, precise, tightly-wound IDM, fidgety sample work and raucous breakbeats. Expressive, dynamic and textural, his compositions are simultaneous explorations of what it means and sounds like to exist at the interstices of cultures, as well as proud exercises in centring and practising his own rich culture through his music. It also helps that they happen to go unbelievably hard when blaring out of a club stereo system.
