Through sorcery and extraction, the EURO–VISION series begins with Prof Adekeye Adebajo, Director of the Institute for Pan-African Thought and Conversation at the University of Johannesburg. The conversation focuses on the history of extraction between the European and the African continent, which has laid the groundwork for the Critical Raw Materials Initiative to take shape. A key event in this genealogy is the Berlin Conference (1884-85), led by the Chancellor of Germany, Otto von Bismarck, during which plenipotentiaries of fourteen states — none of which were from Africa — assembled to discuss the partition of the African continent. After a century and a half ago this meeting continues to shape Africa's borders today, as well as its governance, its economy, its international relations, and the extraction of its materials. The latter of which is often either towards Europe, or to benefit European-owned companies. Based on Adebajo’s monograph, 'The Curse of Berlin: Africa after the Cold War', we delve into the extent of von Bismarck's legacy and the significance of this event in contemporary international affairs.

Episode 1 📢 The Curse of Berlin — a conversation with Adekeye Adebajo

After developing an understanding of the Berlin Conference’s implications, of the concept of Eurafrica, and of how the European Integration project was truly founded in the previous episodes, we wanted to understand more about how these structures have continued, and how they have been transformed and institutionalised in contemporary international relations. One fundamental example of this is the Franc of the Financial Community of Africa (CFA). We invited Ndongo Samba Sylla, a development economist at the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation in Dakar (Senegal), who recently co-authored 'Africa’s Last Colonial Currency: The CFA Franc Story' with Fanny Pigeaud (published by Pluto Press), onto the podcast to discuss these issues with us.

Episode 3 📢 Colonial currencies & investment stratagems — a conversation with Ndongo Samba Sylla

From Still Heat No.15... release date imminent!!! 'All Houses are Haunted' by BEACHERS ..

BEACHERS is a London / Riga based electronic musician , whose 'Refugia' album from August 2020 was a firm favourite at Still Heat HQ , and on the back of that we made an approach for a release for Still Heat. Luckily for us , they agreed.

To our ears, BEACHERS treads similar paths to pioneering electronic artists such as Pan Sonic or Alva Noto with a solid footing in the Electro-Acoustic / Musique-Concrete world. 

With a sharp use of found sound, dead space and pulsing electronics. 'All Houses are Haunted' is picking up the spaces the is sorely missed within the ambient / experimental scene at this time.

50 x Cassette + DL and Badge - more news soon, you know the drill

You can find more about Beachers here for the time being ..

symbios

DSPSSSSD ("dispossessed") is the non-metric noise project of Aniruddha Das and sister project to "Dhangsha."

Das has taken the dub template of his previous work and mutilated it beyond recognition, with extreme minimalism and a particularly fractious approach to improvisation. He noticed he could create similar textures, pulses and energy to 'harsh noise,' but through a different route, namely that of a very aggressive take on 'granular synthesis.'  He has consciously re-calibrated the frequency range towards the bottom using heavy equalisation and low pass filters. As such, this music is designed to be performed on dub sound systems.
