Out now: https://hilyard.bandcamp.com/album/a-wake-in-shadows

“A wake in shadows” is a funerary dirge for the lost and an implement of catharsis for the here and now. A warm embrace for cold nights when loneliness scrapes at the frozen windowpanes and shadows of ourselves dance on the periphery of the firelight. In the darkness of a hushed forest and a quiet mind, the leaves fall from whispering trees, their limbs shed bare in the frigid moonlight. In the spring the roots will feed on the past and sing bittersweet life into the canopy with a long sigh of ephemeral recompense.

Introducing "The Being Brutal EP" - featuring three captivating tracks by The Black Dog, expertly enriching The Grey Album canon.

Delving into the heart of Sheffield's vibrant music scene during the 1980s, this EP explores the wistful decline of the once-promised modernist utopia, now nostalgically viewed through rose-tinted glasses. With a tapestry of intricate emotions woven across forgotten estates and townships, the EP confronts the timeless struggle of repeating mistakes that we should have gleaned wisdom from, yet tragically, remain ensnared in.

"The Being Brutal EP" invites listeners on a journey of introspection and contemplation. Experience the sonic tapestry of The Black Dog as they unveil this extraordinary musical narrative, a reflective ode to what could have been, and a poignant reminder of the unyielding spirit of artistic expression.

Kindisch is thrilled to announce the release of a mesmerizing new two-track EP, Lost Monarch / Machweo, by iconic electronic music duo Thomas Schwartz and Fausto Fanizza. This release showcases the duo’s deep connection with organic house, fusing intricate instrumentals with lush electronic soundscapes, characteristic of their renowned production style.

With 18 years of groundbreaking contributions to the dance music scene, Thomas Schwartz and Fausto Fanizza have solidified their status as pioneers in the electronic music world. Their partnership first rose to prominence with the creation of Starchaser, the legendary duo behind the global hit Love Will Set You Free, released on Ministry of Sound Records. This track became a worldwide anthem, catapulting them into the limelight. With a career that spans three Beatport Top 5 releases on Anjunadeep and collaborations with legends like Michael Gray, Faithless, and even Coldplay, Thomas Schwartz and Fausto Fanizza continue to push the boundaries of electronic music.

The opening track of the EP, Lost Monarch, delivers a beautifully crafted organic house soundscape. A blend of delicate piano melodies layered with oriental guitar licks and subtle vocal chants create an evocative journey that transcends traditional house music boundaries. Schwartz and Fanizza’s mastery of layering brings forth a rich, multi-dimensional experience that reveals new details with every listen.

On the second track, Machweo, the duo delves deeper into their organic house roots, centering the composition around an uplifting vocal chant. The track evolves with the addition of organic instruments, such as bongos and piano, creating an entrancing rhythm that pulls listeners into a trance-like state. As the track progresses, a synth theme gently builds, adding a contemporary twist to this rhythmic odyssey.

Nils Frahm - Wall (Bug Lover Remix)

Akimbo, founder of Seoul-based label Tonal Unity, lives by Multi Culti ideals, a man brave enough to seek adventure, understanding and love outside his native land. This mix takes us on a journey to his adopted home. Let his description and the sounds take you away:

"Spirits of the Korean Han (恨)"

The character at the end is hanja for the term "Han", here inserted for clarity, as the Korean character referring to the same concept (한) has multiple meanings. 

Han is a concept that has no English equivalent. It runs through the Korean traditional arts, and the soul of the Korean nation as a whole. An oversimplification of this concept would be "the blues", but as it is quite complex, I won't attempt to fully explain it here. Han connects deeply with Korean character, which is one of resilience and intensity. Their traditional music reaches heights of beauty, sorrow, and fury. It is defiant, spiritual, spine-tingling, and trance-inducing stuff. 

Modern Korea is a place of juxtaposition. Ancient temples are tucked in between skyscrapers. Teens and tourists ride the waves of Hallyu trends while shamans lead extreme weeklong rituals in the mountains. Club kids in Seoul dance all night to banging techno (no drugs btw), while groups of itinerant performers travel the countryside in the spirit of the namsadang, much unchanged for hundreds of years. 

This mix is meant to be an introduction to Korean sounds, while also attempting to connect them in context with other East Asian tribal traditions and ritualistic electronics.

The Korean names have been romanized for this tracklist, but it can often be difficult to find the music by searching in English. For the original Korean text, let me know in the comments.

I hope you enjoy the travel :)
