Pretty Lights - Done Wrong (Opiuo Remix) - FREE DOWNLOAD!!!

"Medicine” is a song-anthem honoring the traditions of folk medicine; plant-based medicine as a tool for empowerment and healing. It is a call to action to support the voices of the herbalists, healers, and teachers… the roots, plants, trees, and stones… the arts, the spirits, and the wild ones. It is an honoring of all the many ways that we can be well, and the radical and traditional ways in which we can steward health within ourselves. 

This song is a direct tribute to the people around the world who are holding and teaching these ways of herbal plant-based medicine, educating us all to know our gardens, our forests, our plants and our own bodies... to bring wellness back into our own hands and communities. It is not a dismissal of modern medicine, but a gratitude and honoring of its ancestry and foundations within folkloric traditions. 

This release comes on the New Moon after the Fall Equinox. As we are moving into a new season, a new time, and a new chapter, we offer this song as a ritual anthem for this transition and time of great change.

"Medicine" Lyrics:

Wise men say that rushing is violence
and so is your silence
when its rooted in compliance
To stand firm in loving defiance,
make art your alliance
give voice to the fire

Move people to the beat of the wind
Gather yourself and begin
to dance the song until it ends
We are winners, champions of the light
forming in numbers and might
keep the truth close in sight...

Chorus:
Medicine Woman, Medicine Man
walking with grace, I know your face, and I trust your hands
Medicine Woman, Medicine Man
walking with grace, I know your face, and I trust your hands

Find your teachers in the voice of the forests
unplug you cant ignore this
wisdom of the voiceless
Remedies are bountiful and surround us
from the garden to the farthest 
prayers made of star dust

Find your healing in the music that calls you
the voice that enthralls you
what do you belong to 
Eyes out theres the setting of the sun
give thanks to each and everyone
the lesson is the...

Medicine Woman, Medicine Man
walking with grace I know your face, and I trust your hand
Medicine Woman, Medicine Man
walking with grace, I know your face, and I trust your hand  
 
Poem:

I believe in bending backwards and extending
in my tracks 
trip back
until the lesson is in action and
your yard is feeding
stop stark the disbelieving
cause the garden holds the shards 
the medicine is in the seeds when

We hold tight to our right to protect and
we know our might is 10-fold in connection
our elders hold them bright lights 
we protect them
the medicine is evident 
the wolf, the hawk, the bear clan

We hold tight to our right to protect and
we know our might is 10-fold in connection
our elders hold them bright lights 
we protect them
the medicine is evident 
the wolf, the hawk, the bear clan...

Medicine Woman, Medicine Man
walking with grace, I know your face, and I trust your hands
Medicine Woman, Medicine Man
walking with grace, I know your face, and I trust your hands

Cat No: TKG004 
Artist: Seth Troxler 
Title: Just Back 
Label: Tuskegee Music 
Release Date: 27th April (12” Vinyl) 
18th May (Beatport Digital) 

Tuskegee Music was launched in May of 2014 by House Music dignitaries Seth Troxler and the Martinez Brothers. As a ‘label of cultural heritage’ the intention is to package up 90’s-minded 12”s that reach into the heart of Paradise Garage and shed a light on a fertile period of influence in dance music’s history. 

Now - a year on from its inception - Tuskegee Music follow up releases from William Kouam Djoko, the label heads themselves and their recent VA release that featured Ibellini, Jesse Colosso and Filsonik with the first solo EP on the label from head honcho Seth Troxler. 

Adding to a gleaming back catalogue that’s touched Crosstown Rebels, Wolf & Lamb and Hypercolour, Seth offers up ‘Just Back’ - a brooding 2-track EP that demonstrates perfectly his ability to control tension to rapturous effect and finally satisfies the vehement anticipation bubbling between his peers with what’s set to be Seth’s biggest and most important record to date.

This tune began about 3 years ago when I was asked to produce some horn tracks for an artist from New Orleans.  I did my best to rep the Bay as a horn player and do really cool stuff in a Nola style; I was happy with what I came up with.  A year later the song came out and they only ended up using one small phrase from all the material that I had written and recorded. This is an unfortunate situation that's happened to me on more than one occasion but this is the first time that I turned it into something that I'm really happy about! 
I took all the files that I had recorded, took away the music so that just my horns were left with a click track and a bpm (beats per minute=tempo). So, I set forth on creating a new groove, harmonic structure, melodies, song form, arrangement and then started producing it.
   Yes, it's kinda weird, what's the difference between what I'm explaining and just writing a song from scratch?  Well, usually horns are one of the LAST things to be put on a song in production, like the icing on the cake. So, it was really a trip starting out with JUST the horns and working backwards; It led to new ideas that I've never thought of.
Once I found a street beat drum rhythm I liked, I programmed a demo part for that. Next i created a pre-chorus and a chorus. For the chorus I sang non-sensical syllables and sounds in a melody with no words and ran my voice through all sorts of gritty effects to a point where I actually enjoyed hearing my own singing voice for the first time ever I think!
   After recording more additional horn parts on the new sections of the song and arranging it all, i sent it to my main man Trance Thompson. After a little while I received a great demo back and we decided to play the song live at our New Years gig and try it out, which also helped shape the arrangement more.
   Trance recorded the finished vocals last week, we recorded the drums and percussion yesterday morning and the song was mixed an hour ago. The creation of this song is a solid reminder to me to always keep the options open, especially when things don't seem to be working out the way you had planned! Maybe it will just lead to something WAY BETTER.

Karlita - Crossroads Collective/Jazz Mafia

forgive me 
for giving up
i've had enough
the birds are on their way to find me
finally free
i'll be gone when you reach me 
but listen closely
you'll hear me in the breeze
every leaf 
every tree
forgive me
for letting go
long as you know
there'll always be a way to find me
if you're looking you'll see
don't be sad
please don't frown, i'll be around
just promise that you won't forget me
remember me 

Forgive Me For Giving Up

Following on from fellow Hot Creations founder Jamie Jones is Lee Foss featuring Camille Safiya with ‘The Gift EP’ on their Emerald City imprint. The package includes remixes from Sonny Fodera, Lee Curtiss and Detlef, who all champion the globally recognised Hot Creations sound. 
 
“The gift started as a poem for my girlfriend and an instrumental a couple years ago but adding Camille to the equation really brought the song to life. Her voice gave it the magic I was hearing in my head. All the remixes are amazing, I'm super excited about this release”. Lee Foss 
 
Music heavyweight Lee Foss serves up a Summertime classic with an infectious bassline that perfectly accompanies Camille’s luscious vocals. It wouldn’t be an Emerald City release without the wonky electronic wobbles that are sporadically placed throughout. 

First up on remix duty is UK born Sonny Fodera who’s remix is perfect for the imminent festival season, with an energy that will generate damage on any dance floor. Michigan born Lee Curtiss is up next and adds his signature groove-drenched synths. Closing the package is the hottest name to recently have come out of Greece, Detlef, with a remix that skilfully strips things back into a track made for the early hours.

Lee Foss is globally recognised as a pioneer within the underground music scene and rightly so after signing artists such as Richy Ahmed, wAFF, Mark Jenkyns and Nathan Barato to name but a few. He also regularly joins forces with Jamie Jones, Luca C and Ali Love to form super-group Hot Natured.

"Lose Some" plays the perfect foil as it chats with a slightly housier sonic syntax before going absolutely loco midway with a paranoid synth scribble that disappears as quickly as it flashes into the mix, creating that trippy blink-and-miss sensation that electrify the best sets when precision dropped.
