XLR8R Podcast 729: James Bangura

Sweet Abyss resident Kiernan Laveaux takes us on a journey through realms of shoegaze and bisexual lighting, inspired by music from her weird life and the work of famously bisexual shoegaze fan Gregg Araki - partly inspired by mixes from naemi/exael and Ricky Mawzlin of Jellyfish.

https://maloca.bandcamp.com/album/speleogenesis

Wisconsin-based producer and drummer Chants (The Trilogy Tapes, Maximum Airtime, Astral Plane Recordings) meets master drummer Dave Schoepke on this all-drums LP for Brussels-based Maloca Records. ‘Speleogenesis’ blends live drumming with dub techniques and dancefloor-informed production, guided by imagery of a subterranean world. It’s a full-circle moment, as the two met when Chants (aka Jordan Cohen) took drum lessons from Schoepke during his teenage years.

The recording process began with Chants creating skeletal demos for Dave Schoepke to improvise on. Schoepke recorded many layers of drums and percussion, running some of them through his hardware synthesizers. Chants then shaped these recordings, resulting in the cavernous dub techno track ‘Pressure Slide’, the Brazilian-influenced ‘Ritmo Crudo’ and ‘Ritmo Puro’, and the uptempo, slippery dancehall dub of ‘The Quickstepper’.

Chants then assembled a new palette of samples from this core and constructed dancefloor-focused bangers like the hyperactive ‘Cyclone Rhythm’ and minimal 170 bpm ‘Rafter’, adding his own homegrown breakbeats. As the album took shape, the music kept evoking mental images of caves, tunnels, and underwater caverns that in turn influenced the final pieces. ‘Notes from Underground’ and ‘Speleogenesis’ present a more unfiltered view of Schoepke’s nuanced drumming. ‘Airbell Dub’ was also created using material from one of Schoepke’s meditative solo performances. Finally, ‘Cavernicole’ features both drummers in full duet mode, trading phrases over an insistent kick drum pulse.

Clips of Holy Tongue's "Ambulance" 7"  available to buy at https://dubwisevinyl.com

The mighty Holy Tongue return with their first ever 7" release and I'm pleased to report it's an absolute corker! Atmospheric and brooding A-sider "Ambulance Dub" feels like the mystical union of a deadly under the radar 80's digi-dub with a long lost sci-fi synth soundtrack. Sleng Teng meets Bladerunner Uptown...Flip it over for "The Bigger Tutti" which is classic Holy Tongue at their very best capturing the stripped back DIY energy of post-punk delivered alongside a heavy as lead dub bassline which combines with the characteristically incredible percussion to create a mesmerisingly deep and funky groove. Two complimentary yet contrasting sounds from one of the most exciting purveyors of experimental dub around.
