After a short hiatus, we're stoked to return with the first Stan Radio mix of 2021, and a nice little Balearic special from the south of France.  

@marwanfilali is a Marseille based architect & DJ, also behind the record label and website RA/OI (www.rareandorinteresting.com). 

RA/OI nicely balances a blog and record store specialising in, you guessed it, rare and / or interesting records - along with commentary on various discoveries by Marwan and like-minded record collectors. 

He also recently launched a record label under the same name, with a killer first release of irresistible Franco-Afro boogie by French Senegalese artist Joe Sembene (available in stores now).

With new projects in store for 2021 - we recommend you stay tuned! And be sure to check out more of Marwan’s mixes on Soundcloud, they’re great!

TPS 056 - SYNTHESIZED FOLKORE FROM ETHIOPIAN 80s - Selections by DJ Mitmitta

Named in direct reference to arguably one of the greatest albums ever created, "Giant Steps" by John Coltrane, "Giant Stops" pays homage to the rich legacy of jazz while pushing the boundaries of the genre with a contemporary twist. The album seamlessly blends jazz, hip-hop, and electronic elements to create a unique sonic landscape that is both nostalgic and modern.

For Minus & MRDolly, "Giant Stops" represents a new chapter in his evolution as a musician, showcasing his growth and commitment to pushing boundaries in his genre-bending style. Taking inspiration from the creative process of Makaya McCraven, the album features dynamic instrumentals backed by a live band, with Minus & MRDolly's signature lyricism and storytelling shining through both the instrumentals and the lended work of guest musician such as Meta_ or Luca Argel. By using this production method the album takes a bold stand for the importance of sampling as an art form hoping to encourage listeners to appreciate the rich history and evolution of hip hop and to recognize the essential role that sampling has played in shaping the genre.

As a nod to his Portuguese roots, "Giant Stops" represents a deeper exploration of the artist's identity and a commitment to looking inward to find creative inspiration. With this album, Minus & MRDolly hopes to inspire others to embrace their own unique perspectives and use them to create art that connects with audiences on a deeply emotional level.

In a world where technology threatens to replace human creativity, "Giant Stops" is a reminder that the power of art to connect with people on a fundamental level is enduring and will continue to shape our world for generations to come.
