Moogfest is proud to announce an exclusive remix from Moor Mother and collaborator King Britt. This is part of our ongoing collaboration with our 2017 line-up. Below Moor Mother describes the track in her own words. Enjoy. 

From Moor Mother... 

The remix represents Philadelphia at its best, King Britt has been an artist that I have had the honor to perform with and learn many things just by watching him.  I am thankful that he has remixed one of my favorite songs from the album originally produced by artist Wizard Apprentice.  Time Float speaks about the environmental warfare that continues to plague historical African American and low income communities.

“This is a track called Black Enchantment from Emanative … a really good tune!”

- Jon More / Coldcut / Ninja Tune - BBC 6Music - Jan 2017


Emanative aka Nick Woodmansey makes his return on self-released limited 7", Ominous Shanti / Black Enchantment – two tracks that perfectly display Nick’s flavour for interesting rhythms, eastern sounds and contemporary influences.

On the flip, ‘Black Enchantment’, Nick brings together the original Emanative nucleus of Ben Hadwen and Jessica Lauren to neatly complement his lazy samples and sluggish programmed beats. The result is a jazz hip-hop vibe that was originally digitally released some time ago.

"We're releasing this one ourselves privately, on the kind of non-existant label Home Planet Recordings, so any and all support really appreciated!
It's a limited edition, so please don't miss out!"

Blue Melon. I came up with the name after getting in bed one night and staring at the ceiling for too long, thinking about the meaning of art in my life. Over the past eight months, ‘Blue Melon’ has developed into the idea of being other than what appears to the outside world. This concept was fundamental to shaping the sounds of the EP. In a genre-bending sequence, the EP challenges common assumptions about continuity in music creation and provides a multitude of sonic textures able to resonate with a diverse, worldwide audience.

As a producer, I am inspired by electronic music, trip-hop and abstract hip hop, blending synth sounds into my creations and using samples as vehicles to generate genre-bending tracks. Lyrically, I take cues from the verbal virtuosity of rappers like André 3000, Childish Gambino, Missy Elliott and Ladybug Mecca. I am influenced by the voices of Joan Baez, Italian singer Mina, and Nina Simone. 

I am thankful that ‘Blue Melon’ has helped me rediscover my artistic capacity. After the positive reviews of Shunaji as an emerging artist, I wanted to present a self-reflective body of work. I expanded my production skills to incorporate live instrumentation, with Sascha Create (Brother’s Testament) on drums and Marla Mbemba (Yazmin Lacey) on bass. ‘Nighthawks’, the second track in the EP and my debut as a singer, is a painting of social realism, desire and loss. ‘Curtains’, the final track on the EP, mirrors the sharp-tongued attitude of ‘Red Honey’, with an old school feel that complements its pressing bars.

Nighthawks

Hey everybody, here we are with our second tune! Unfortunately we’re forced to leave our recording studio next month, so we named this jazzy tune „Harzer Straße“ to keep all the inspiring & creative sessions we had in the past 2 years in good memory. We hope you enjoy listening to this record!

A Quest Called Tribe begins with the series of portraits drawn by Stéphane Carricondo in 2017 dedicated to Hip Hop legends.
As close partner in art Medline proposed to create a soundtrack for them, and first interpreting ATCQ's classics with elements of the past, present and future.

The best way to materialize this multidimensional tribute was obviously a vinyl. And it's the one we unveil today.

On the visual side:
ATCQ's portraits are composing the front cover and, assembled into a great scene, are printed on a colorful A2 poster. Stéphane Carricondo's natural lines are highlighting each member's soul map. The alchemy of the dark ink on emptiness gives to them an impressive sparkle of life .

On the musical side:
The classic themes are transformed into a polymorphic fusion, were jazz, funk and soul from the original sample sources converse with Tribe's characteristic beats. Medline added a hint of his magic, unique rhythms, improvisations, arrangements, original orchestration and inspired melodies.

The album is an ode to the band that marked both artist's life and mind. A cultural print and school of sound that designed Hip Hop foundations. With a blooming expression Medline and Stéphane Carricondo are going to the roots of ATCQ in a quest for the tribe.

Musica Macondo on Jazz FM with Tim Garcia and Cherise

Been blogging, music sharing, etc. for a while now (see blog under this name) & DJing since 1982. I like all kinds of music.

Most of my playlists are not organized & just hold songs I'm interested in, many of which I haven't listened to yet. The "freeform current listening" playlist is as it says & will be updated regularly. Many of my reposts were unintentional, they were just random tracks I was trying to add to a playlist using my phone & I've got clumsy fingers.
