Every so often, I put together a playlist featuring some of my favorite artists I've encountered. The goal is to circulate new sounds and introduce people to the creators. For this reason, I call the playlist Refractions; the action of light/radio waves being deflected and redirected.

Given the current state of things, I though now would be a great time for volume 4. 

Definitely take the time to follow these artists and check out their other platforms (spotify//applemusic//etc.) 

Enjoy!!

Bremen Natbar (March 2017)

2017 was a serious year for Von D, with releases on a number of great labels including our long-format imprint Khaliphonic, plus Amar, Moonshine, Lion Charge and more - and it's not over yet!  For ZamZam, Von D has delivered “Over” - a brooding, burning 140 anthem providing serious heat as we head into the dark winter months.  

“Over” features a powerful half-time reggae riddim built from Von D’s signature warm, enveloping bass and restrained but powerful drums.  Tambourine and guiro add flavor while the snares slap, and Meekman’s kete drum rocks throughout, adding a swing and live feeling missing from many contemporary in-the-box sound system tunes.  Melodica and synth skank in unison, underpinning a dizzying spread of analog signals & sonics.

With reality lyrics straight from Kingston JA courtesy of Shamarie Kamar Bogle AKA Digital Sham, the tune is brought to a boil with heady verbal vapors on poverty, struggle, corruption, daily stresses caused by the political shitstem, and the inevitable end of the wickedness that is so prevalent in these times.  

The dub version spools out the echoes and forwards the kete drum in fine style, displaying brilliant filter-sweep moves and reverbs so luscious the space they define seems to breathe.  “Chalice Overdubs” also features gorgeous guitar work starting halfway through, adding another melodic, rhythmic and textural element for much more than a simple version.  

Mastered by Sam at Precise, released late November, 2017. Limited to 800 7" vinyl copies for the world.  Design & screen print by Polygon Press.  No repress, no digital. 

Contact zamzamsounds@gmail.com for any information, including subscriptions to our 7" series, and follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to be kept in the loop!

♫ About ♫ 
“Close your eyes and paint a picture of too much color to conceive.
Is it just a figment of reality, when two parallels interweave?”

Siberian label @baikalnomads releases the Interweaving Parallels EP. The German-born, Brooklyn-based producer Deisen (@deisenmusic) delivers a multifaceted work of four downtempo/electronica tracks that move body and mind alike. It’s a collection of musings about a praying mantis without a religion, the self inside its universe, and the importance of immediacy. 

The EP comes with big support from remixers Kyrill&Redford (@kyrillredford), Anatolian Sessions & Beyhude (@anatoliansessions & @beyhudemusic), and Commoner (@tomcommoner).

PREMIERE : Deisen - Praying Mantis (Original Mix) [Baikal Nomads]

We’ve been absolutely obsessed with Midnight Hour since it came out.  We made this remix to play at our shows and loved it so much that we decided to release it.  Hope you guys enjoy.
