Nyahbinghi; Black Victory. A style of Jamaican ritual music characterised by African hand drum patterns and spiritual English or Pidgin chanting, usually Rastafarian-adopted bible passages or themes of Black redemption. The style developed from the traditional "drum-circle" music passed down through the generations by the African slaves brought to Jamaica by the British, and was an extremely important tool for the newly uprooted slaves to try and maintain their identities in the face of a forced Christianisation brought onto them by their oppressors. As time progressed and Christianity became the most common religion among the blacks in the Caribbean, Nyahbinghi rituals lost their place in society. However, as Jamaica became more and more industrialised in the 19th century and slavery was banned in the British empire, the downtrodden former-slaves began seeking a voice of their own, Rastafarianism grew as a religion, and Nyahbinghi drumming and chanting became an extremely important political vehicle for Jamaican musicians. The music's African heritage meant that the British colonial powers distrusted anyone who played the drums, and being caught leading a Nyahbinghi chant was often met with brutal punishment. As the push for Jamaican independence really grew in the 50's, many musicians began recording Nyahbinghi as a way to further spread the Black Power message throughout the Island, and now legendary drummers like Count Ossie, Ras Michael and Bongo Herman were able to carve illustrious careers out of their once subversive passion. To this day, Nyahbinghi stands as a symbol against colonial oppression and violent imperialist tendencies. 

I made this mix ages ago. It's about 2/3 vinyl, 1/3 digital. There's even a few skips in there if you don't believe me! It's by no means flawless (as you'll hear with some of the dodgier mixing) but the tracks are still enough to make me stop dead every time I hear them, which is why I decided to upload it. Enjoy :~)

Doubler - B1-Bruised Fruit (CH-007)

After a period of uncertain drifting between pressing delays and schedule mishaps, Lobster is finally back and rolling and bringing more snappy electro through the Theremin caverns with this long-awaited and indelible EP from Unfinished Portraits.

A collector of hardware and purveyor of the warm analogue sound, Unfinished Portraits' path is a sincere endeavour that eschews any throw-away comparisons and truly brings the raw end of the hardware techno sound to it's natural home, nestled comfortably in beautiful frequencies in the inner ear.

From the off this is a spiritual and mystical excursion, Mixed Messages curdling a thick, luminescent slime in a newly packed cauldron; wafts of hypothermal gases fill the nostrils and send one into a spiral of delusional visions and trances. A series of repetitive meditative cycles.

Closeness breaks the loop with glowing icicle stalactites glistening amongst cave-reverberated footsteps and a long frozen Drexciyan cavern finally unearthed by explorers thousands of years in the future.

Title track Memory Lake segues into view in it's own time. Riding off of the back of newly unearthed socio-political scandals, public paranoia and a recently formed revolutionary faction. It's Adam Curtis' audio calling card sent from a post-apocalyptic satellite, a call to arms and a uniting vision of a free future, warmed with hopeful but slightly off-kilter artefacts, and tainted with unsettling but oddly comforting melodies.

Obscure Alternatives rides waves of condensed sea air and effluent straight into the minds eye and out through the back of the universe. A trip into lucid, mind-altered territory where alternate histories collide with shape-shifting temporary settings and circumstances.

Drawing the release to a close is the simply-titled X. A cathartic, sludgy, hammer-driven acid mould, pressed into the shape of a mallet that simultaneously smashes the status quo whilst shattering into a thousand pieces upon impact. A slightly cold, alkaline taste skirts the edges and a higher than normal pH is left on the palette of the tongue. Definitely not your standard acid burner.
