The Sorry Entertainers have played a huge part in my inspiration over the years and their Local Jet Set album is one of my favourites along with their Dark hits from Donkey Album mix. 
Mana Chaninqa is my favourite track on the Album and i have been wanting to do an edit for a while now, this is the first i have ever been nervous to post something but i hope i have added to the music and not taken anything away. 

Enjoy

Mana Chaninqa (Kusht Edit) - The Sorry Entertainers

A patchwork of audio memories from different times and places. Like childhood reminiscences stitched together, where every sound becomes part of the music, and music is present in every sound.

Caminho à Sintropia I

Emerging from mountains of fragments
the little gathering of the scatterlings,
a long and winding road,
on the way to Syntropy
travelling through a myriad of possibilities
dispersed matter accumulates into stars
towards an ever unveiling sonic system

Nicola Cruz - Elephant

Hard to believe it has been four years since the birth of Shika Shika with the release of Barrio Lindo’s Kayak Break EP. Four years of being able to release music we love, artists that inspire us and the power of borderless, cultural cross-pollination.

Yet we have reached a crucial crossroads where it is time for the collective to evolve and grow. We want to embrace a vision that tries to find the sweet spot between music & activism, be it cultural and social empowerment or environmental awareness.

Cosmofania (inspired by Cosmogony - the study of the beginning of the universe) embraces this new beginning but also new artists and new sounds for ys. A deep, exciting anf refreshing new beginning!

With this compilation we are presenting a selection of new names we’d never heard of until our open call, old friends we somehow haven’t already worked with and amazing established names. It is a selection of beautiful, music by 13 talented musicians and producers from all over the world - Canada to Indonesia, Egypt to Argentina. They are tied together by an approach to electronic folk music, rich organic soundscapes and a sonic freshness

Frente Bolivarista is proud to present to you the North American multi-instrumentalist Michael Alfred Wagner aka Biomigrant. This brave man took an incredible bike journey throughout the American continent down to Colombia whereas he found himself and settled his studio and inspirations.

"Biomigrant - Las Américas" is a collection of stories, told more through sound than words; a collage of field recordings, original instrumentation, and carefully constructed beats that explore the beauty, pain, contradictions, and joy of everyday life on the American continent.

Street parties in the Colombian pacific,
Rain prayers in central México,
Verses of African resistance in the Caribbean,
Sonic memories of an oasis in Baja California,
Introspective footsteps, lost in the jungles of the Sierra Nevada,
The faded colors of a picó and a taste of palm wine,
A personal reaffirmation of the struggle to learn and grow,
And a collective remembrance of our fragmented history.

A new Earthly Measures adventure begins...We introduce to you Earthly Tapes 01. This first compilation features artists that have been alongside us on our journey so far, as well as new members welcomed in to the Earthly Measures family. Inspired by sounds from all corners of the globe, artists from Ecuador, Brazil, Argentina, Australia and the UK invite you to experience their homelands through their individual musical styles, keeping to the diverse sounds that Earthly Measures has come to be known for!

Argentina native Janax Pacha brings up the tempo with a more dance floor friendly track. AMA-ZONA has a slow-burning tribal feel which wouldn’t sound out of place at any point of a set, paying homage to the Amazonian rain forest. In his own words “Ama" is to Love - "zona" means Zone - Lets respect and take care of the world's nature by caring for and respecting our Own Nature. Our love zone is the heart just as Amazona is one of the largest hearts of our natural world and planet. The voice of our heart is the voice of nature. Hear it. Respect it. Let it Sing.”

Ecuadorian born Joaquin Cornejo’s KOMOREBI serves as an excellent introduction to the label, with emotive sounds and soulful lyrics creating a beautifully peaceful track. This is a song built around almost forgotten vocal recordings of the amazing English singer Wabi Sabi and resampled old magnetic tape recordings that make up the rich textural background.

Brazilian Ibu Selva brings us TAPARENDY, created as a means to evoke communication and dialogue between himself and the Guarani-Kaiowá indigenous people from the rural outskirts of Brazil. This fierce downtempo groove is a mix of digital culture & form, producing a futuristic melancholy sound that reflects on Selva's ancestry as well as the uplifting landscapes of his home country.

To kick off side B, we have another Brazilian native, the prolific Carrot Green. OUTRA METROPOLE has beautiful keys, powerful synths & a wonderfully mesmerising breakdown. This is one for the early risers – ready for a cosmic trip and some transcendental mind melting along the way.

After his deep nature, consciously inspired contribution to our first release on Earthly Tapes 01, Janax Pacha returns with that jungly vibe again bringing you ‘El Caracol’. Translating to ‘The Snail’, the 4-track EP comprises two tempo shifting interpretations of a journey through vibrating mystical woodlands plus two re-works by Andi Otto and Carrot Green.

Raising the tempo whilst still retaining the obscurity of the EP opener, ’Sin Fin’ endlessly pushes the title track into dancier regions. With added momentum, it manages to strike the perfect balance between introspection and a more hedonistic, party-driven focus.

Continuing to push his sound into new realms through experimentation with different influences, Joaquin Cornejo returns to Earthly Measures with his first ever vinyl release. The ‘Las Frutas’ EP contains 6 genre-bending, tempo-shifting tracks that form to create a mesmerising blend of footwork, dub, Latin & African percussion.‘Las Frutas’ explores a collaboration with both the Spanish singer Alex Serra and British DJ and trumpet player DJ Swordfish. It’s constructed by a warped and pitched down drum break that has been slowly surrounded by subby kicks, toms and dub chords that echo through tape delays, giving it a wonderfully spaced out atmosphere that provides the perfect backdrop for the soothing vocals and brass instruments.‘Spatial Request’ sees a shift in tempo as Joaquin once again blends elements of Dub but this time with the driving Dominican rhythm Merengue. The result is a track that is very much fuel for the mind and body as the vibey atmosphere and percussive focus helps to keep the track moving with bouncy momentum.Effortlessly combining music from his home country with the Dub theme that has been apparent throughout, ‘Dub en 3’ is a percussion jam from Ecuadorian percussion duo Consulado del Ritmo, where African triplet rhythms crossover with strong dub techno stabs and a Dub MC sample echoes in and out creating a effective blend of tribal and dubby elements.‘Eso’ sees the return of the percussive wizardry of Consulado del Ritmo but this time in collaboration with the Venezuelan singer Gotopo. A relentless amalgamation of 160bpm djembe grooves, solid 808 kick drums, deep and sultry vocals and synth stabs feed-backing on tape create a driving blend of African percussion and footwork with a subtle touch of dub techno.Perhaps the darkest track on the record, ‘Shadow’ is a collaboration with the English singer-songwriter Wabi Sabi aka Anna Bailey. Exploring a deep fusion of footwork, dubstep and dub techno alongside strong tape delay and Wabi Sabi’s hauntingly beautiful vocals, it glides experimentally through the shadows of the previous track.‘Las Frutas’ Vapor Mix’ is a distant dreamy take on the original where the vocals ebb and flow throughout creating an otherworldly ambience. This piece is made up of elements from the other tracks, pitched down or up on tape and layered in a tempo-independent way, producing the perfect ambient ending to the journey.
