CUM REGENERATUR [Pedro Canoeiro DJ Session, São Paulo 11.04.2020]

Toni Morrison: Do you realize, the moment to be anarchic was when we saw those tapes.
When we first saw those tapes.

Charlie Rose: They waited for justice.

Toni: They waited.

How long was that - 9 months, a year?
They WAITED for justice for almost a year. And it didn't come.

How do you feel?

Charlie: Why has racism been so dominant in our life? What is it about it —

Toni: It's about feeling good.

Charlie: You need to feel better; that you are better than someone —

Toni: Some people do.

How do you feel?

How do you feel?

If you can only be tall because somebody is on their knees, then you have a serious problem. But don't you understand that the people who do this thing - who practice racism - are bereft. There is something distorted about the psyche. It's a huge waste, and it's a corruption, and a distortion. It's like it's a profound neurosis that nobody examines for what it is. It feels crazy. It IS crazy.

How do you feel?

But when you take it away - if I take your racism away from you - there you are all strung out, and all you've got is your little self. And what is That? What Are You Without Racism? Are you any good? Are you still strong? You still smart? You still like yourself?

How do you feel?

Charlie: And the advice is to come to grips with your own fears.

Toni: Of course. Your own fears. Your own history. And what do you need? What do you need this for?
How do you feel?

How You Feel [WAITING FOR JUSTICE] (feat. Toni Morrison)

Mike Kalle x Morfius - Colombia

A gentle meditation to connect with your inner child for healing.

Inner Child Meditation

Indigenous Resistance has just launched a new full length 12-track cd IR25 Dubversive. This album has tracks "Ivere...The Land," "Luana," and "Sacred Power Dr Das Ragga Mix" all featuring indigenous performers from the South Pacific, most notably from the Solomon Islands.

The roots reggae track "Luana" is sung totally in an indigenous language from the Solomon's and features singers Tohununo and Dublikkle One in a song dedicated to all children whose rights are being disrespected. 

"Ivere..the land" is about environmental devastation and is a collaboration between a US-based singer of black, indigenous and European ancestry, ChristianeD  and Olovotu, an indigenous composer and musician from the south pacific. Ace producer Soy Sos takes indigenous  instruments and beats recorded by Olovotu and adds his own personal touch to them to create a swirling dance floor groove that mixes chants with Christiane D mezmerising lyrics and vocal styling. There is a video filmed in Brazil in the Amazon for this track that you can watch it and read about  it how it was made here: http://dubreality.wordpress.com/2010/12/16/video-for-ivere-opening-trak-of-ir-25-dubversive-cd/ Christiane D created her own video describing how the collaboration was done totally across the internet and how the lyrics of the piece came about and you can watch it here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp6NWsYtLTg and read the blog post here: http://dubreality.wordpress.com/2010/12/16/an-ir-dubversive-insight-into-trak-ivere-with-christiane-d/

The track "Sacred Power Dr Das Ragga Mix" features vocals from Solomon Islands performer Tohununo alongside traditional singing from indigenous people in Canada within a reggae ragga riddim created by the founder and bassist of Asian Dub Foundation, Dr Das. You can watch a video of this trak here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2J1CAW7YPq4

"This Land Is Not For Sale..." is about Atenco, a classic land-rights struggle. For some time, IR had been aware of the siege of Atenco and had been following the news through its direct and underground channels. When Asian Dub Foundation contacted us about working on a collaboration around this issue, it made perfect sense to us. Land rights are the center of many indigenous struggles and IR has done tracks & grafitti projects related to this matter. With tracks on recent IR releases, we have hoped to illuminate the independence movement in West Papua, the The Free West Papua Movement (OPM), the plight of the Krikati people of Brasil, or the Minga Indigenia of Colombia. This new collaboration was created through the internet with musical mixes, speech fragments, and ideas flying back and forward in the digital domain. IR's network of dubversive members working in shadows across the Americas from Peru to Colombia, made their contributions by editing, transcribing, translating and recordings. These were relayed via the net to ADF in the UK. 

This is the 25th release on the IR label which over the last 6 years has done numerous collaborations with indigenous performers from the South Pacific doing collaborations solely through the internet which linked musicians like ADF and Adrian Sherwood with performers in the South Pacific. In fact the first 7-inch vinyl, IR2, released by IR was a track for the Free West Papua movement.

As a transnational artist, DREEEMY’s sound is a transcendental organic electronica — a conscious communication of soulful vibration from across the diaspora and beyond.

She has soundtracked spaces that range from nightclubs, galas, theaters, and festivals, to museums, universities, public parks, historic landmarks, and all manner of sacred spaces.

From ambient, meditative journeys, to immersive ceremonial cyphers, to full-on raving dancefloors, she is a uniquely diverse creator of sound and space whose frequency has filled venues like Madison Square Garden in New York City, Coachella in California, and at the United Nations Climate Conference in Egypt.

Inspired & informed by the meta-physical, medicinal power of sound and movement, DREEEMY’s journeys are full-spectrum, fusing and layering tempos, sonic textures, and cultural codes with embodied and expressed storytelling to create alchemical spaces for personal revelation and collective celebration. There are no limits to her expression.

Drawing from her North African heritage, she harnesses driving rhythms, earthen basslines, natural atmospheres, forgotten instruments, ancestral voices, tribal invocations — ancient sounds mixed with futurist modalities made for remembering and re-writing our individual and collective myths.

Made for awakening dormant consciousness.

Made for recalling lost wisdoms.
