Did you watch the Apple TV show Severance? I think it's a masterpiece on many levels, including the soundtrack by Theodore Shapiro.

This is a remix of an ambient music that plays during the 'wellness sessions' of the workers in that TV show. Hope you like it.

Send me a video if you play this in your DJ sets!

Theodore Shapiro - Music Of Wellness (Costals UKG Remix) [Extended DJ Version]

This is a remix of the Main Titles of the Apple TV series Severance.
I re-played the piano and synths. The only sample I used was the sound FX we hear at the very end of the original.

The original piece was written and recorded by Theodore Shapiro :

A song about water.

Much love to Sainte-Alice who believed in this piece and pushed me to finish it and release it ❤️

Acqua (feat. Sainte-Alice)

Peu de choses

Being emotionally broken and highly immature until my early 30s, I created only few opportunities to develop my sexuality. Heck! my strongest – semi-conscious – belief was that no woman will ever want to be with me, because I felt unattractive and socially incapable. Even after a few validations in my 20s, I still unconsciously held that destructive belief.

One of the thing that helped me heal – and I'm still recovering – is making music. For years it was instrumental mostly. I never had a strong intention to use my voice. But after a few girls said how they liked it, I timidly started to play with it.

I channelled loads of my sexual energy in these songs. It helped me to express my desires and embrace who I am, what I feel, what makes me a man who loves women and want to love them openly.

I also think that these songs acted like a springboard in my journey as an artist and helped in defining my own style. I was even able to express other parts of me, connected to the sexual energy: my playfulness and quirkiness.

I hope this music will help you relax and feel sexy and loving.

Seductive, cinematic, anthemic fast pop. Echoing glockenspiel and vocal textures over rippling synth and full-bodied bass joined by filtered beats and ethereal female vocal, leading to dynamic chorus with cinematic synth stabs, building with soaring pads, dropping back down to mysterious sections with multiples rises and falls, ending with huge euphoric half-time build into panoramic final chorus with uplifting vocals; 170 bpm

"You'll never get it, if you don't slow down my friend."

Introduction of my album. 

This is a superposition of two scenes from two different films. The dialog with low keys on the background is from 'Smoke', by Paul Auster and Wayne Wang. The higher piano is a portion of Keith Jarrett Live in Köln (1975), which was used on a scene in the Italian movie 'Caro diario' by Nanni Moretti.

An homage to cinema and all the great people making such films that area really inspiring to me.

caro smoke jarrett (slow down)

This is another superposition of recordings. We hear a grand piano played by my man Manu aka Papâ (@monpapa) and myself in July 2016, mixed with some moments I lived in Matino (where I learned to walk, danced, cried and laughed for the first time) with my aunties, uncle and dad, June 2016 and September 2016.

matino-belmont feat. Papâ

"To become truly immortal, a work of art must escape all human limits: logic and common sense will only interfere. But once these barriers are broken, it will enter the realms of childhood visions and dreams."
– Giorgio de Chirico

sentiment de mouvement

This is a reworked/advanced version of a very simple track I made and shared in the beginning of 2014. So we can say it's a three years work even though I didn't touch it for long periods of time.

The vocal was there since the very first version. I love to share deep thoughts and experiences through my music and it's especially enjoyable to do it with movie sampling. This one is 'Before Sunset' by Richard Linklater. Check out his films, that's one of my biggest source of inspiration.

Another draft I "finished". It started with the piano loop from a jam I recorded in December 2016 at my friend's in Rodalquilar. I added up an additional trumpet take I didn't use for 'bristol chords'.

Vocals are taken from a CD I found at the library : "Le Chant Des Femmes Bulgares".

As I get more emotionally detached from my work, I don't really know much what to think about it. I kinda like it, though I hear a voice that says "it could be better". Sure, but in in the end, it is what it is. And I move on.

In spring 2017, through travelling and uncertainty, gelivan stayed a month in a house in Rodalquilar, Andalusia.

An ideal opportunity and framework to realize a dream that gelivan dared to believe: to collaborate with an artist he admires. So he invited Pierre Citron who made the road from Belgium. This little Spanish town that was renowned for its gold mines and quiet life has been the setting and inspiration for the creation of Rodalquilar Sessions.

In six days, six pieces were created. The first two were discarded, and the next four are listed in the order of birth.

I thought I would start to upload few times per week here and test out different kind of audio like work in progress, unreleased tracks, snippets and talks about my creative process... and see what you like.

While I was staying for a month in Northern Yorkshire with a couple of friends, I started to work on the remix of my first album 'mouvement du sentiment'. It was released in January 2017 after months of vagabonding around Europe. Still my most significant work so far.

Since then, I went to so much. I kind of died and was reborn again, much wiser and stronger. I became a prolific music maker, which is probably what I was supposed to do with (at least a good portion of) my life.

We start with the first splurge session I did to remix track number 3 'askiya'. I really like the ideas here, I think it's going to be a great track, that could be played by DJs in the clubs.

I have a few questions for you :
1. If you do, what do you like the most about this music?
2. What other artists it makes you think of?
3. What do you see/imagine when you listen to this?

You can write your answers in the comments, or even better send me an e-mail at costalsmusic@gmail.com

shout out to some of my top listeners @briac-le-gourrierec, @sociodeep, @kcloz, @aleksandra-murtischeva, @oxana-lisa, @titus-pengelly, @szachuno. I tag you here cause I sent you a private message but I think you can't see it if you don't access Soundcloud via your computer 😬

At the beginning of 2020 I committed to release a new project every 7th of the month.

Though I realised I'm not ready to drop something good with such consistency. Yet. That's still my goal and it will happen soon enough.

I did get many tracks done in the last months. But right now I don't have anything that I like and want to release stylistically.

I became victim of my eclecticism somehow. My strength is also my weakness.

I thought I'd share a collection of drafts instead so you can have a taste of my daily output and ... my musician's schizophrenia (laugh).

All of the 45 tracks except 2 where made in one session of 15 to 60 minutes.

I'm currently working on 10 tracks to finish. Those aren't part of this collection.

Most importantly : I'd like you to let me know if you have a crush with one or more of these musical ideas. Might help me prioritising the next tracks to finish.

If you make music and you'd like to collaborate on one of these tracks, e-mail me at costalsmusic@gmail.com

Same if you want to buy one of the 45 ideas for exclusivity.
