Mixtapes

Ever since i enriched my quarantine with Felix's mixes i had my mind set at having him on this show.
Well, Felix was kind enough to record us this mix on first request.
Felix Tapes is a selector and producer based in Amsterdam. His musical range goes from African funk and disco to Amazon exotic vibes. And more than his mixes, his biggest contribution to music, in my opinion, comes from producing african edits. 
He is a part of the ethno kult community, a very cool project that you can check out here to learn more : https://ethnokult.weebly.com/ . 
His next project will come from collaboration with his friend Jasper (artist name Kurlz 727). It is a upcoming EP for the "Echoes from Venus" label. So, use this mix to pass time while waiting :D.

##SHORT INTERVIEW IN ENGLISH BELOW :)##

Vorsommerliche Frische breitet sich aus und mit viel Sonne im Sound lässt sich ein verträumtes grinsen nicht vermeiden. Leise wie eine Eule schleichen sich die wunderbarsten Soundschnipsel ein und verbreiten eine wundersame Wohlfühlstimmung. Es fühlt sich warm und bekannt an. Wir sagen danke an die Eule El Búho und segeln weiter Richtung Sonnenuntergang.

Gut Ding braucht ja bekanntlich Weile. Das lange Warten hat sich aber so was von gelohnt!

Wie dieser Mix entstanden ist und was die Idee dahinter war, könnt ihr weiter unten gerne selbst nachlesen. Derweil mal viel Vergnügen beim Hören :)


HML: Can you tell us what the idea was behind this mix?

EB: This mix has been a whole process haha. When the Heimlich crew reached out over a year ago I felt I wanted to do something different. It kind of bores me to make just mixes of music I like and I always like to have a bit of a challenge. I realised at the time that I have grown this amazing collection of remix stems from a bunch of talented artists who asked me to make a remix and so I thought, wouldn’t it be fun to make a mixtape only using these stems - kind of like using them as a sample bank and create an hour of original music from them. 



HML: You put a lot of effort into this mix, how was your approach of working on this one?

EB: I’d called it a recycled music mix. You can maybe recognise little snippets from like Chancha Via Circuito or the vocals like from Eat My Butterfly are a bit more obvious but at the same time they are completely new songs. All of the music from this mixtape has never been released and only exists in this mix. It is also all at 90 BPM which was another fun challenge pitching down all these stems from other BPMs and keys to take them to a whole new context. The only issue was I underestimated just how long it would take to make a one hour mix of completely original music and tracks and I ended up dipping in when the inspiration struck and adding a new movement or song. By the end the project was over 350 channels and my Ableton was totally fed up with me opening it and making even small changes at the end was a total headache haha. So a big thank you to Martin and the Heimlich family for their endless patience and letting me indulge in this odd way of making a mix :P 



HML: After working for so long on this mix, how would you describe the work afterwards?

EB: It’s funny to listen back. I have no idea what musically it was going to sound like and I still don’t really know how to categorise it but I suppose that is what creativity is about, just feeling it, going with the flow and seeing what happens. I would also like to make a big shout out to all the artists that contributed to this mixtape without realising it ;) Hard to make a tracklist but I can definitely share a picture of my folder of remix stems to give you an idea oh and of my Ableton project (if I can open it hahaha).

We found a house with a funny face,
it was the Crystal Museum,
we went inside and stayed.

ABOUT GiZ:

Giz is a passionate music selector based in Berlin. She's currently making her joyful babysteps in a musical journey which - overloaded with so much heartwarming inspiration -  began a few months ago.

She grew up listening to vinyls from all around the world with her music aficionado father, which no doubt plays a role in her choices in life and music. She speaks 6 languages and is very much moved by all languages (from Indonesian to Mandinka) and instruments of any kind. 

She likes conveying ideas and experiences through her occasional writings but also believes in the immense power of silence and music- both as tools helping us (re)connect with each other and with the moment, in the moment, moment by moment. In the here and now, in unity. Slowing down- without rushing, racing, competing. Remembering we are here and alive, breathing in and out with vivid appreciation and gratitude for what is (just as it is) and for all the wonderful music that flies through our ears. Simply dancing and chanting while the music is being played, remembering we are here and alive.

When we star of talk with @marthavanstraaten almost 5 years ago in the beginning of our adventure us Nomade, we never imagined how many epic moments life had prepared for us in different part of the planet, always the recordings were lost or something happened but today we can share one of the most special moments for us together in Garbicz 2018.

Enjoy!

Our 'hijo de oro' Jacobo aka. Mente Orgánica on the Guitar and Ableton kissed by the beautiful Voice of Paola aka. Lapola Kalu and this embraced by the sweet and delicate sound of Nick Gutersohn's alphorn. Just amazing!

This fabulous set is symbolic for the beautiful night we had last Friday. Everywhere you would look there where smiling faces. We were asking ourselves, is this just happening? Yes it is and its just the beginning of a wonderful time of love in the era of our echoes tribe. <3

Please note the small but elegant technical problems at the beginning and the few feedbacks from the alphorn pick-up :)

This is a relatively tender mixtape, mainly filled with chilled, downtempo tunes. Reason is because my girlfriend started reading next to me and I didn’t want to disturb her . The set might go a bit from pillar to post bit it will at least take you through many parts of the world. Hope you enjoy and please feel free to drop a comment!

Inspired by the African cassette tapes from my father, I started playing African Disco and Funk in Amsterdam in 2010. After traveling in different continents, I started experimenting with sounds from all over the world. Where I used to play a bit more uptempo, nowadays I am focussing on a deeper and more atmospheric sound. Blending different genres and tempos is something that is appealing to me. From Nigerian funk to Amazon tribe music, everything is possible.

Echoes from Planet Caravan - Sternegucken

..........die dunkle Nacht schleicht durch die Strassen.
Einzig die funkelnden Sterne leuchten hell.
Sanfte Bässe und wummernde Töne lassen dich eintauchen in diese Dunkelheit.
Du..... lässt dich treiben, deine Gedanken ziehen vorüber unter dem unendlichen Sternenzelt.

Der talentierte schweizer Produzent Planet Caravan erhellt uns den Weg und motiviert  den Kopf nach oben zu richten, den Sternen entgegen!
Und wer weiss...... da kommt unter Umständen eine Schnuppe vorbei und deponiert ein paar schöne Tracks..........

Echoes from Planet Caravan - Sternegucken

.......... the dark night creeps through the streets.
Only the twinkling stars shine brightly.
Soft bass and throbbing tones let you immerse yourself in this darkness.
You ..... let yourself drift, your thoughts pass under the infinite canopy of stars.

The talented Swiss producer Planet Caravan illuminates our way and motivates us to turn our heads upwards, towards the stars!
And who knows ...... a snuff may come by and deposit some nice tracks ..........
