Following on from the heavy-hitting chaos of 'SASSA', @stiff-pap unleash the opening track of their forthcoming 'TUFF TIME$' project on @cotch-international. A heady mix of traditional South African melody and heavily twisted electronics, the song also features vocals from Nkosi Zuthulele of internationally renowned Soweto Jazz outfit BCUC, who recently collaborated with Saul Williams and Femi Kuti, among others.

Stiff Pap said: "It’s basically about coming from a background of not having much but making due with what we have. We weren’t born with all the tools to succeed but our passion has always driven us to work hard and overcome all the obstacles on our way to become the best. It sets the tone for the whole project’s D.I.Y. do or die concept, where we’re basically throwing everything we have into our art and betting on ourselves to come out on top. We like the title because it’s a bit ambiguous, you could think of it as a storm wreaking havoc and we’re riding it like a wave unharmed or you could interpret it as us being the storm and we’re storming into the scene as rebels about to take over."

Self-Cav is about understanding your own needs, desires, failings, habits, and everything else that makes you tick. The more you know about yourself, the better you are at adapting life changes that suit your needs.

Importance Of Self Cav - OhTeeh

It all began eight years ago with a copy of R. Murray Schafer’s The Tuning of the World found in a box in a cabin, deep within the Pacific coast rain forest. This catalyst provoked Scott Gailey to draw inspiration from the sublime environment that surrounds his home on the West Coast of British Columbia. This exact landscape had a profound effect years earlier on a group of composers centred around Schafer and Simon Fraser University, including Hildegard Westerkamp and Barry Truax, who banded together as the World Soundscape Project (WSP). Where the WSP was primarily interested in field recording as sound ecology - documenting, preserving, and archiving a changing landscape - Gailey explores the musicality of field recordings through various synthetic approaches, a way to access the ambiguous emotional content latent in the natural world. There is a subjectivity to Gailey’s work, and in that sense it has more in common with the sensual musique concrète of Luc Ferrari, or even the Fluxus tape works of Henning Christiansen, than with the WSP. Despite having roots in this well of thought, Polysensuality is undeniably modern, finding kinship with contemporary works by Sugai Ken, Visible Cloaks, and Meitei, while also dipping a toe in the sound pool created by Haruomi Hosono and Hiroshi Yoshimura. Gailey has previously explored this palette in his duo You’re Me with Yu Su, but here there is more space, more silence, greater extremes, and in this way it is more personal, like a soliloquy rather than a conversation.

MATstudio is a new series focussing on the music being made by Jonny Nash and Diego Herrera (Suzanne Kraft) in their Amsterdam Studio.

MAT records always aim to encapsulate a particular sound palette or sonic “world”. Whilst the mini-album/EP format is often ideal for this, it is important for us to balance these more measured, conceptual works with the spirit of chaos and spontaneity which often inhabits our studio. MATstudio provides us with an outlet for this aspect of our work.

The format, a vinyl record with two long-form compositions, allows us to showcase the range of material produced as a result of Nash and Herrera’s improvisations, experiments and accidents. Many of the fragments are the results of filtering ideas through new production techniques and tools. Some feature friends and collaborators. MATstudio works are an ode to the infinite possibilities that result in keeping a curious mind and a desire to learn.

MAT-SS3 features two compositions, “Crushing Indifference” and “An Inn For Those Not Permitted” and it will be released on vinyl and digitally in late February 2020.

In the midst of bushfires ravaging the country on an unprecedented scale, Sydney’s Moonshoe have reached out to their coterie both at home and abroad for a benefit compilation. Tapping 21 tracks, the mood hear spans quiet optimism and incised rage, often providing a reflexive reflection of the local flora and fauna that have been decimated by the fires. 
Whether offering a sense of solace or a headspace for a brief respite, the music here feeds into the beautiful solidarity being displayed across Australia’s musical community and further ashore; aside from a number of names from Sydney and Melbourne, RAMZi, Nummer and Max Abysmal have all contributed tracks.
