And She Came Home (Mary Lattimore Rework)

[@morubasounds Juɑn Mộruba surge en Popayán - Colombia como un investigador musical de diversas culturas alrededor del mundo. Su objeto principal es el de fusionar sonidos de música como Jazz, Soul, R&B, Samba, Folclore Latinoamericano, entre otros, con algunos sonidos de fauna, flora, poesía y literatura; es una apuesta que estimula el rescate de melodías étnicas al ritmo de sonidos de downtempo, slowtechno-deep-ketapop-folclore-tech además de imponer vibraciones potenciales a la médula. 
Es una apuesta libre y melódica para poner ritmo al son de Slowbeats.
Espero les guste.

English Description:

[Juɑn Mộruba emerges in Popayán - Colombia as a musical researcher of diverse cultures around the world. Its main purpose is to merge sounds of music such as Jazz, Soul, R & B, Samba, Latin American Folklore, among others, with some sounds of fauna, flora, poetry and literature; it is a bet that stimulates the rescue of ethnic melodies to the rhythm of downtempo, slowtechno-deep-ketapop-folklore-tech sounds as well as imposing potential vibrations on the marrow.

It is a free and melodic bet to put rhythm to the sound of Slowbeats.

I hope you like it.

Boum Boum Boum! 25 years of KOMPAKT. When a record label still thrives after a quarter of a century thanks to a focus of what was expected to be a short lived music phenomenon called TECHNO, then it stands to prove two things; that it techno has taken its place amongst serious, multilayered musical genres like rock’n’roll, pop and folk music. And that KOMPAKT has never been only for techno, but KOMPAKT stands as a broad-minded, genre-defying entity that has set out to cross-pollinate all kinds of musical inventions within the realm of electronic music. Through its course, KOMPAKT has sent “Around The World”, all kinds of sub-genres, concept series and crossover adventures based on the non- negotiable 4/4 beat. And back again.

Without a doubt, the 100% kickdrum-free POP AMBIENT series is the most endearing and enduring concept that I have had the pleasure to curate. From the start, I felt there was a strong need to add a certain pop- elegance - ensouled by discourse as much as hedonism - to a sound that was recognized as “Chill Out” music that could be heard in seedy techno club back rooms and forgotten festival areas. Over the years, I like to imagine that POP AMBIENT has crystallized into a highly recognizable trademark sound and a multi-facetted musical universe of its own.

So once again, I had the pleasure to put together this year’s edition by plowing through an ocean of sonic jewelry that had been submitted from all over the world by new and old friends. The task was clear: for this special edition, I must create a homogenous listening experience that would both appeal to our trusting followers, to continue our tradition while integrating new micro facets , variations and influences from neighboring musical universes as possible. Obligatory while being innovative. Conspirative while being cosmopolitan. Albeit the headline “Ambient” might sound a little too humble for a compilation that encompasses aspects of neo classic, atonal music and the most beautiful aural kitsch imaginable, it still helps as a necessary means of orientation in the best possible sense. Same goes for another dear tradition: Veronika Unland’s abstract-floral cover design that keeps on pleasing our sore eyes year after year.

Although each and every POP AMBIENT edition doesn’t shy away from diving into the relevant question of “What is contemporary discourse music” – in the end it all boils down to that elevated moment where all theory dissolves into ambient air, into a higher state of cosmic bliss. POP AMBIENT is sacral music for non-believers.

Last year, pianist James Heather released his ‘Stories From Far Away on Piano’ album - a beautiful, fragile record that established him as one of the post-classical artists operating in the orbit as Max Richter or Nils Frahm. Now, Coldcut's label Ahead Of Our Time is putting out a compilation album of reworks of Heather's debut LP, drawing together contributions from the likes of Echo Collective, Aparde, Sarah Davachi and DJ Seinfeld. Eschewing the kind of crunchy vintage house he's made a name with, Seinfeld opts for a more ambient approach on his rework of 'MHope', which we're thrilled to be premiering now. Tune in now.

Endless Melancholy​ - ''Fragments of Scattered Whispers' 
Label; Dronarivm 
Cat #.: DR-55
Format: LP (ltd. 100), CD (ltd. 150), DL
Release date: November 9th, 2018

CD/LP/DL: dronarivm.bandcamp.com/album/fragments-of-scattered-whispers

'Fragments of Scattered Whispers' is the sixth album from Endless Melancholy, a solo-project of Oleksiy Sakevych from Kyiv, Ukraine. It follows previous releases on labels such as Preserved Sound, 1631 Recordings and Hidden Vibes.

Arriving on CD, digital and heavyweight vinyl editions, 'Fragments of Scattered Whispers' is a collection of soft piano melodies and transparent ambient textures, gently flowing one into another. On this album Endless Melancholy continues with the tape sound explorations, started on his previous album 'The Vacation', but in a new, more distinctive way. On this occasion, Oleksiy teamed up with Krzysztof Sujata (known for his musical outfit Valiska), who did some outstanding job on processing the tracks through different kinds of tape recorders and mastering them afterwards. Accompanied by a stunning artwork by an acclaimed artist Gregory Euclide, 'Fragments of Scattered Whispers' is meant to evoke hazy reminiscences from the deepest corners of listener's mind, like a blurry photograph suddenly falling out of an old book.
