STAGE BOUNDARY SONGS: a mixtape inspired by The Act of Killing 

Initiated by DJ /rupture, Stage Boundary Songs is a musical response to Joshua Oppenheimer's award-winning Oscar-nominated film The Act of Killing (2013). Jace Clayton (DJ /rupture) and Oppenheimer collaborated on a series of art-activism works in the 90s. Following that spirit, Clayton decided to produce Stage Boundary Songs, inviting Filastine and Indonesian vocalist Nova Ruth to curate the musical mix.

Nova digitized gems from the rare vinyl collection of the Museum Musik Malang. She selected psychedelic folk, rock, and soul made in the decade surrounding Indonesia’s 1965 coup. This is rounded out with Filastine's own productions and other contemporary strains of Indonesian music, along with samples of dialogue from the film, and field recordings.

Rupture worked with TAoK co-director Anonymous and researcher/translator Richard Curtis to choose a selection of poems by Wiji Thukul, incorporating them into the mix in Indonesian and English. Wiji Thukul, a dissident people’s poet, is an icon of the country’s leftist democracy movement. Only a handful of his writings have been translated. Several are heard here in English for the first time. Thukul was disappeared by President Suharto’s anti-Communist 'New Order' regime in 1998. "I'm not a news-making celebrity," begins one of Thukul's poems, "but am, to be sure, bad news for those in power."

The cover artwork is adapted from a woodcut by Thukul’s daughter Wani, herself a poet. It was confiscated by government security forces in 1996 during a raid on Thukul’s home.

Stage Boundary Songs - a mix by DJ Rupture, Filastine, & Nova Ruth

soundofthought.net/19-Dynamo-Dreesen

For what will conclude our year and usher in a new one of astrological forecasts and convincing new year resolutions, we have our January guest and Acido Records boss man, Dynamo Dreesen doing what he does both in equal measure, naturally and supremely.

Now in operation for over a decade, Acido has become somewhat of an unmonitored breeding ground for unconstrained, left of centre rhythms, often laced abruptly in psychedelia though always heavily drenched in peculiarities. Whether it’s meditative soundscapes, experiments in hip-hop or high-paced playful oddities, Dynamo and his equally talented group of friends have occupied Acido’s space almost exclusively over the last ten years, with the latter five being presided over by the safe and guiding hands of Dre(e)svn, the alias given to that of the dynamic partnership between Dynamo and Sued don, SVN.

These Acido reverberations are most alluring particularly in their reticent nature, allowing the listener to discover much upon recurrent listens. Having released a staggering (by Acido standards) four EPs in 2014, the timing appears perfect for this venerated figure to get festive and make his way all the way south to display his skills in both the party, and, the party. Expect an evening of no holds barred swinging antics. Check this insight in advance.

"She’s talking about love for her land/country, the water. She addresses a traveler who is going to Ramallah, she says take my soul with you.

The second half she says:
Oh mother, there’s a knock on our door it’s our beloveds
There’s a strong knock on our door, it’s the fedayeen, the ones who long for/love freedom
They knock on our door

And then some love for a dark palestinian woman

It sounds like a folk song or a combo of a few folk songs"

Excerpts from the powerful new double LP from Caterina Barbieri comprised of compositions for analog synthesizer. Highly recommended to fans of Alessandro Cortini & Eleh. 

"Patterns Of Consciousness finds Caterina Barbieri at her best, elegantly moving between melodically pleasant yet twisted sequences and comforting, reassuring sonic spaces. Every piece, while given a singular identity, is part of the bigger picture: a work of art that will push you, pull you, and then eventually leave you with your back against the wall once you get to the last track. " Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails)

S.O.N.S - A New Life (Planet Earth Mix) [SO-03JP-NS]

Eighty years ago, the "alt-right" proudly called themselves by a different name: fascists. The first war they launched was in July 1936, when right-wing Spanish military generals attempted to overthrow the democratically elected, left-leaning government of the Spanish Republic. The coup initially failed, but the generals, aided by Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini, transformed their effort into the bloody three-year long Spanish Civil War, a dress rehearsal for World War II. Though the Republic ultimately lost the war, its defenders organized a response that will endure forever as a testament to solidarity: the creation of the International Brigades, tens of thousands of volunteers, from more than fifty countries, who journeyed to Spain to fight fascism. These included 2,800 Americans who came to be called the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. 
On October 6th, sui generis Brooklyn-based band Barbez, in collaboration with singer Velina Brown, release a remarkable tribute to those volunteers called For Those Who Came After: Songs of Resistance from the Spanish Civil War. These inventive and moving new renderings of the indelible protest songs of the International Brigades will be released on the pioneering Boston-based label Important Records. The album was recorded live at the Japan Society, in 2016, at the annual reunion of veterans of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade, an event that has been held in New York since the 1940s. The highlight of the reunion has always been the singing of these songs, which were led on several occasions by Pete Seeger, a lifelong friend of the Lincoln veterans, who recorded many of them for his iconic 1944 album, Songs of the Lincoln Battalion.
Barbez draws on avant-rock, contemporary classical and folk music styles such as cumbia and flamenco to reinvent iconic songs like “L’Internationale” (The International) and “Viva la Quince Brigada” (Long Live the Fifteenth Brigade) for a new generation of listeners. The album features the group’s stellar musicians: clarinetist Peter Hess (Philip Glass Ensemble), theremin virtuoso Pamelia Stickney (David Byrne), marimba and vibraphone player Danny Tunick (the Clean), guitarist Dan Kaufman (Rebecca Moore), violinist Catherine McRae (the Quavers), bassist Peter Lettre (Shearwater), and drummer John Bollinger (Sway Machinery); with vocalist Velina Brown (San Francisco Mime Troupe) and special guests Dafna Naphtali on background vocals and Sebastiaan Faber on trumpet. It’s the first Barbez record since 2013’s acclaimed Bella Ciao (Tzadik), which was inspired by ancient Roman Jewish melodies and the Italian Resistance during World War II. Like each of the group’s previous five albums, For Those Who Came After was mixed by the incomparable Martin Bisi (Swans, Sonic Youth, John Zorn) at his legendary B.C. Studio in Gowanus, Brooklyn. Live engineering was performed by Damon Whittemore (Paul McCartney, Andrew Bird). Released on vinyl and CD, the album also features extensive liner notes by award-winning author Adam Hochschild, who recently published a groundbreaking history of the Spanish Civil War.
