After his debut "Mare Aperto", Amsterdam-based Gropina returns to the light with a four tracks 12” EP out on Paesaggi Records.

“Microcosmo” is a synth melody with a slow-rolling Roland 606 drum-machine rhythm, Quena flute by Hamburg saxophonist Linus Kleinlosen, ambient pads, and natural field recordings. The atmosphere of the song brings you into a dewdrop in a blade of grass in the early morning hours right after the twilight of a sunny day. Following we fade into a dreamy dancefloor jam called “Awumbuk” where bittersweet chords are backed with a Yamaha RX5 rhythm, a groovy FM baseline from a Yamaha DX100, and Roland D50 Lush pads. On the flip, we can find an adventurous downtempo break jam called “Natura Naturans” marked by trancey elements, a solid bassline, and an evocative flute melody. The journey ends with “Omen” which is a dark slow jam characterized by a live processed drum machine groove with a hint of wave influence and a metaphysical vibe to it.

Side B and the riso-printed insert depict the head of the bifid siren from the Romanesque church of S.Pietro in Gropina. In Christian symbology, the fish-tailed siren represents the seductive power of the senses and illusion, which distracts man from the spiritual realm by attracting him to ephemeral pleasures. Like every human-animal hybrid creature, the siren is the duality of intellect-primordial instincts and the conflict between the double nature of man.

Microcosmo has been conceived and recorded between 2018 and 2020.  The release includes a riso-printed insert and a sticker.
Every copy is hand-stamped.

Thick Pigeon was, apparently, 'a walk through the civilization of your soul'. And Miranda really is very fan of dogs.

Resonate

In 2008, Palms, the cross-continental collaboration project between Berlin’s Nadja Korinth and New York’s Ryan Schaefer, released «Der König» on their first album, «It’s midnight in Honolulu». «Der König» is a weird avantgarde post-pop track full of longing, wistfulness, melancholia, and cryptic German-English vocals.  2016 Menqui stumbled over the track on the Austrian social satire series «Altes Geld» and made a few small, respectful adjustments to «Der König».

BSS SPAARNDAMMERBUURT ARCHIEF 001

Weird times call for weird music.. Although life is mostly uncertain and confusing at the moment, we feel it must also lead to a big influx of creativity amongst all people affected by the current situation. Therefore, while reflecting in quarantaine like most of us, we have decided to start uploading some BSS music that got sidelined in past years and finally give them a destination. 'Spaarndammerbuurt Archief 001' is made up of 5 previously unreleased tracks and are now available on the BSS Bandcamp page. Finally, to all Internet friends, please stay positive, stay home and take care of yourself & loved ones. <3 BSS
