02 - morning sun

Most of us have felt betrayed in life and its hard to talk about. We feel hurt, and find it hard to know sometimes whom to trust, but we should never let it close our hearts….

I thus felt a need to play and a very slow and sombre, imperfect and simple improvisation came about; errors and all  …… [perhaps I may try to improve on this].

 I just needed to get some feelings out …. 

Though it hurts, we can learn and become strong. Keep your hearts open <3

(Two people have now expressed interest in adding to this track, which is great; will keep you tuned] :-)

House

A track made by Tapan Raj one half of Midival Punditz made a couple of years ago.
" I did it for Manish Arora’s Paris fashion show in 2009. It was created as an uptempo feel-good track for his fashion show and people really liked it. So I worked on it some more and extended it from its original two minute duration to make it a longer and more complete track."

Gaurav Raina (of Midival Punditz) and Ankur Tewari (of Ankur and The Ghalat Family) have collaborated on a new track called ‘A Distant Rumble’.

"In his many trips to Delhi, Ankur dropped into my Village Studio one evening, armed with an acoustic guitar, and started to jam on an electronic loop I was working on. The jam lasted over six hours and out of that emerged ‘A Distant Rumble’. Its an exploration into sound textures, harmonics and hard beats."

This 1990 classic was the record that turned on many people to the zero-gravity voice of another of Real World’s most emblematic artists – the Pakistani singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

"Night Song" is part of series 2 of the Real World Gold re-issued albums - released 30th July.

The great – and ridiculously prolific – Pakistani qawwali singer had already recorded half a dozen albums for Real World when he delivered this peach in 1996. Effectively the sequel to 1990’s classic Mustt Mustt, Nusrat is here reunited with the Canadian musician/producer Michael Brook and once again the partnership tests the emotional boundaries of the human voice. Timeless, state-less and, nearly two decades on, ageless. It wasn’t made in Detroit or Memphis, but this truly is soul music.
“An album for the ages, defying genre and solidifying Khan’s stature as one of the world’s pre-eminent singers” – Billboard

According to the mythology of Kuzhebar people SHU KHUR - 
is the Guide which one could get in the process of the painful initiation. This guide directs the person towards strong, pure and purposeful life. 
In different sources SHU KHUR is also the spirit of groundwater and it's usually depicted as a water bird or a woman with the bird attributes.

Charukesi nights

A song on Lord Muruga, Enna Kavi Padinalum. I fell in love with this song when I was a kid, the first time I heard Madurai Somu sing it. Set in a raga called Neelamani.

Enna Kavi Padinalum - Flute

Meister Lampe continues his musical journey around the world. After his successful debut album «Orb» he returns after exactly one year with an exciting and colorful sequel: Orb II.

Get your physical copy here: meisterlampe.fanlink.to/ORB2

After the successful solo debut «Orb» – the limed vinyl was sold out after only a short time – Meister Lampe once again packed this beatmaker equipment in his suitcase in the summer of ’18 and set off again. On his route he picked samples and typical sound images from all around the globe, cutted, pitched or changed them and composed his own musical collages. Sometimes with juicy drums and percussion and sometimes with quieter tones.
«Orb II» is an instrumental album with clear hip-hop influences, mixed across the musical genres and influences of the individual countries. This time Meister Lampe travels musically to India, Grenada, Brazil and then make a detour to Benin and Cape Verde.
In the end there is much more than just a travelogue to get discovered: it is a record with a great suspense, one or two long-term classics and a lot of love in detail.“

Temple Romance - Balamurali Balu - Featuring Flute

2  track recording. Amp mic'd . All fx are from the amp apart from the Sweet Baby overdrive for a bit of punch

Slow Celtic Thing

The forthcoming single from Stavroz's third EP on Moodfamily "Bleached Flamingo EP" is an
emotional rollercoaster. As a threatening wave, violins rush to you in the opening moments
and lay down a foundation on which a deceiving seven count groove comfortably settles. An
upsetting atmosphere haunts you through the first minutes. Until halfway, the song suddenly
blossoms when a weeping synth starts the theme and paves the way for the saxophone to take
over effortlessly. Together, they conclude the song in unison, delighted to have found each
other.
