raw 2 da core

“As a kid I could never fall asleep without my headphones,” reveals Adam Dove aka Nexcyia, speaking to Rob Turner. “I remember falling asleep listening to Jay-Z and Kid Cudi: it became ambient to me.” London based artist Dove aims to create sonic experiences akin to an augmented reality through sound collages, installations and manipulated video work. In his interview in The Wire 461, Dove discusses Afro-surrealism, the sonification of race, his own introduction to ambient music whilst being hospitalised, and more.

Here, Dove shares a brand new mix featuring tracks by several of his musical acquaintances, and others. “This mix was inspired by a quote from the book Invisible Man (1952) by Ralph Ellison,” says Nexcyia over email, “I now can see the darkness of lightness. And I love light. Perhaps you'll think it strange that an invisible man should need light, desire light, love light. But maybe it is exactly because I am invisible. Light confirms my reality, gives birth to my form.”

“I wanted to sonify the idea that the darkness of lightness can confirm presence,” he continues, “some of the tracks by Racine evoke these feelings, as well as, feelings of otherness and loneliness – I wanted to compile tracks that evoke meditative temple-like atmospheres.”

hush ~ 22 - Guest Mix by Louis Wilkinson

Session #8 - Sha99y

“[....]
This record highlights the Secret Boyfriend that obscures didacticism by highlighting output that opens up for more challenging catharsis and emotive signal processing. It provides an entry to the materialism of a cultural field full of ecstatic complexity and beautiful inconsistency. In these muted moments Secret Boyfriend has given us over his career we have an argument for evolving languages that further challenge our notions of what is supposed to happen and how it is supposed to be presented. In his more song oriented expansiveness, we can punctuate the ability to think in new modalities. Listening to these recordings reminds me of the polarity of sitting in the record store as a kid and understanding that His Name Is Alive is on 4AD and (gasp!) timeSTEREO. This trite early impression that nothing is really as different as our imaginations might want them to be, and that we can do whatever we want mostly within the creative realms we work through is an important filter to look through Secret Boyfriend as a project and a vessel. If we can achieve abandon and vulnerability through our artistic endeavors, then we have a sound model for, 𝗺𝗮𝘆𝗯𝗲, new potentialities. If that’s too much projection, or just complete liberal bullshit, I am fine with that. Secret Boyfriend's oeuvre at best offers us moments of reprieve to ponder these complexities, or at least a moment to zone out on a drive through North Carolina Highway 54.

You have one pocket of life that you must do whatever you want to inside of. Secret Boyfriend does it affectionately, in a variety of forms, and always with deep sentimentality. These recordings are a wonderful set of songs to begin further investigation from. Thank you Ryan for allowing as many avenues as possible to continue a broad cultural exchange and conversation that intersect and refract while being the kind of artist that is brave enough to not phone in the effort.”

“on sight: bring back home” aims to highlight one of the many consequences of the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine: the illegal forced displacement of Ukrainian children by Russian authorities. The goal is to raise money for a Ukrainian organization, Save Ukraine. One of their main projects, “Save Abducted Children,” focuses on finding, identifying, and returning Ukrainian children who were taken by Russia from occupied territories.

According to Save Ukraine’s research, more than 19,546 abducted Ukrainian children have been identified. The exact number of children taken from Ukraine to Russia during the war is unknown.

February 24, 2022, Russia has illegally transferred or deported at least 19,546 unaccompanied Ukrainian children and adolescents from the occupied territories of Ukraine to the Russian Federation. This is the official figure that appears on the Ukrainian government portal ChildrenOfWar.gov.ua. However, these government statistics include only those children whose transfer was officially reported to the Ukrainian central government by Ukrainian relatives, witnesses, or communities. The real number of affected children is probably much higher.

Sarlito's Vision [NEO VIOLENCE - FREE DL] - Michael Claus

PREMIERE > http://inverted-audio.com/premiere-dj-problemas-love-simones

@djproblemas 'Love Simones' encapsulates the subtle flavours of an hypnotic piano tune heaved by rough-edged percussions as it desperately keeps sinking into crushed glass quicksands. Rugged stuff for the twisted romantics or weird emotional material for the tough boys. Pick your side.
