Flute Boy is a harbinger of the forthcoming debut album Songs for Broken Ships by MD Pallavi and Andi Otto. The two tracks are physically exclusive to the 7“ single but are in the digital package of the LP album.

Flute Boy is a folktronica lullaby, a cute waltz with traces of dub and acid in the finish. The B-side, Look Again, presents an almost neoclassical ballad with MD Pallavi's vocals floating expansively over a wonderful framedrum groove.

MD Pallavi & Andi Otto first crossed paths on a theatre stage in India ten years ago. They started collaborating instantly and in 2016 MD Pallavi's mesmerizing vocals for the downtempo raga Bangalore Whispers warmed hearts and ears. Their musical relationship flourished with artistic residencies in Bangalore and Hamburg, their respective hometowns, and a concert tour in Japan.

On their new recordings, MD Pallavi contributes songwriting for poems in her native Kannada, one of India's many languages. Andi Otto co-composed and produced the songs. The process took three years, and the results show an interwoven aesthetic vision of two artists with their contrasting musical backgrounds.

MD Pallavi is a singer, actress, filmmaker and performer from Bangalore, South-India, where she trained in Hindustani music and performed poetry since childhood. Andi Otto is a composer, cellist and DJ from Hamburg, Germany, known for his idiosyncratic and unconventional dance music productions for labels such as Multiculti, Shika Shika and Pingipung.

The album Songs for Broken Ships (LP/dig) will be released May 12th 2023 on Pingipung.

Hailing from Chicago, M.A. Tiesenga is a musician, composer, and multidisciplinary visual artist presently living and working in Los Angeles. As prolific as they are autodidactic, Tiesenga’s creative practice includes not only composition, but print-making, pen and ink drawing, visual scores, and participation in numerous musical groups, including, notably, the Eastman Saxophone Project (“ESP”)—of which they are a founding member—and the grammy-nominated collective Wild Up. Across mediums, Tiesenga balances a rigorous attention to craft, procedure, and structure while simultaneously inaugurating the requisite space for spontaneity, play, and the stranger fruits of creative mysticism.

A second small collection of music produced by or in association with Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander peoples. 

A few years ago, Lew and I made a 'change the date' mix for our RRR show. I find it mind boggling that we're still celebrating dispossession with a public holiday in 2021. Not to mention our Anthem, which just stinks - both words and music. 

As a so-called 'Australian DJ', I am always trying to find ways to incorporate more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander music into DJ sets, radio, etc. I am hardly in a position to make commentary on the vastly diverse musical cultures that exist across the cities, towns and communities in Australia, but this again seemed like a simple way to provide an alternative soundtrack for a day that otherwise resounds with a dull, universalist rhetoric. 

If you like this stuff, have a dig for it. I've put a few links to music organisations below the tracklist so you can stream, download and support the musicians directly. Go listen to this kind of stuff direct from first nations artists, djs, broadcasters, etc.
