Glasswort is and acts as a medium. A means of transmission, a channel, a liminal state, a container, an environment. A sympathetic vessel, a palette, a mirror - it centers itself in giving and receiving. In this it is both lost and found. Here it finds purpose, but not meaning. It transcribes and is transcribed in the process. As a lens, it brings those around it into focus yet cannot see itself. The soda ash from incinerated glasswort is used to make glass, valued for its crystal clear color. Sympathetic to the season, their stems take on rich purples, reds and pinks moving into leaf season - dappling the marshes like mome raths. You may also know it as swampfire, sea bean, samphire or pickleweed.

Latin: Salicornia depressa, roughly meaning depressed salt horn/branch 

Properties: A member of the goosefoot clade, Glasswort is equal parts vegetable, herb and spice. Much like oysters, kelp and other aquacultures - seabeans are a purifying force both within and without. As a halophytic plant (salt-tolerant) that can thrive in saline wastewater, it has the dual value of being a nutritious, commercially-valued vegetables and also treating wastewater from commercial fishing or shrimp operations. Glasswort is a vitamin and ionic mineral powerhouse; it is rich in calcium, iron, iodine, magnesium, copper, potassium, fiber and Vitamins, A, B, C + D. It is also very high in protein for a vegetable. You can find this small, bush-like succulent in the middle + lower levels of salt marshes in May-August in New England. Virginia Glasswort is widely distributed, from the coasts of FL to PEI in the Atlantic and from CA to BC in the Pacific. It is lovely raw, pickled, as a seasoning or cooked as a vegetable. 

Companions: Glasswort seeds are a vital food source for passerine birds and geese. It also provides a safe-haven for insects and snails, such as the marsh periwinkle and western pygmy blue, during high tides.The endangered salt marsh harvest mouse relies exclusively on Glasswort for its habitat and primary food source. They eat pickleweed and climb on top if its sturdy leaves to forage more efficiently.

@WotNotmusic

Glenn Astro currently resides in Essen and has spent half his life producing and DJ'ing. He started out with Hip-Hop and later got into ultra soulful House music.

Glenn returns with another gang of grooves. His warm, soul-infused "Hologram" EP is  is forthcoming on WotNot Music and is set to be released on vinyl March 23rd and digitally early April.

None other than Henry Wu (22a) was called in for help to remix "Love Is Gone", which he does with a delightful, jazz-instilled flip. Since we have been following both closely for a while, we are stoked to exclusively premiere this particular track of the Hologram EP.

It goes without saying that you need to pick up this release if you love that love warm, jazzy, soulful sound. Check out this super limited pre-order (only 20 vinyl copies) and leave a nice comment or REPOST if you dig what you hear.

Little Snake - 'HXD'

The album was made in 11 days with instant composing, recording the main 5 tracks on the rc505 with my as153 guitar and sounds of the sy300 and some (mostly drum) samples of the mpc500 by finger drumming, recording this as a stereo track with an instant arrangement with some rc505 effects to the daw, adding some melodies, sounds, atmospheres, samples for transitions, mixing this, learning a bit about mastering, mastering this, choosing an order, checking out on a fat pa system, done.
The music is interested in inventing some new beats or rhythmic feels for future dance steps and life styles. Means combining a lot of spirit of and knowledge about Jazz, Indian Music, New Music, Beat Music, IDM, Electronica to a new thing called SUBWATER BEATS.
With a large use of polyrhythms, equi distance rhythms, isorhythms, (double, triple) displacements, rhythms with two and three brackets, isomelodies, uncommon subdivisions, harmonic and metric superimpositions, brain and soul this happened in a hyper creative mood with always staying in 4/4 meter.
... Whatever, the main thing is it sounds and feels fresh, encouraging, bouncy, dancy, fat, real, spirited, bubbly...

Jo Wespel / Joachim Wespel doing stuff
„We are stunned, hallucinated, crazy with musical sickness, immersed in these incredible beats that the artist has created, it's all so avant-garde and beautiful, everything so spatial, a wonderful revelation of musical experience, we love it and can't wait to see him in Brazil one day and feel this impressive music live.

An electronic transcendental journey and impressive work of art, it is a rocket straight into space and so different from anything we have ever heard

Not to spoil your surprise about this album, we can only say that we will never be the same after listening to the 13 impressive works of art that Beatdenker delivers, the album causes sensations in our body and mind that are indescribable, it is not just an album, it is an experience that everyone needs to have.“ - Indieoclock / Brazil

 

„When it comes to his recorded music, he stretches the boundary just as far. Inventive and intriguing, his music fuses elements of beats and rhythms with Future Dance, Jazz and New World influences culminating in a sound crafted from extraordinary imagination. he offers a sound from the meta IDM world.

Taking twists and turns at every step, the album lays down a vast exploration of experimental music with constantly evolving stuttered rhythms throughout. An incredible album! Such a mesmerising piece of art!“ - Plasticmag / London
