We kick off the Fantasy Fiction takeover with Pink and White Terraces, the project of NZ-via-Berlin artist PAWS+ (Aporia, The Tarts).

From PAWS+: "The mix is a dive into some of the influences that have inspired the sound palette for the Pink and White Terraces. I made the record largely in lockdown in Berlin so it's probably why it is tinged with this kind of longing or “Sehnsucht” auf Deutch. There's a lot of nostalgic and romantic pacific flavoured bits. There's also a lot of 80s new wavy flavour. I guess when you dig under the candy coated cover that's really what's going on. I like the duality it implies. I hope you enjoy it :)"

Ep 260 pt.1 w/ Pink and White Terraces

Between 2007 and 2020, Mario Cotto spent virtually every Saturday night in the basement studios of KCRW in Los Angeles, broadcasting his Psychedelic Service to listeners worldwide. The show was an eclectic mix of punchy dance music, psychedelic rock, 70s AM gold, 80s synth, eccentric world music and ambient freakouts. It was a reign that sadly ended with the first lockdown. Tonight, we welcome him back to the air. For two hours, experience a heady trip inspired by Warp's Artificial Intelligence comps, KLF's Chill-Out, and something like a Late Night Tales colliding with a Sublime Frequencies compilation.

les souvenirs du temps  , les rêves d’hier
se ravivent aux ténèbres durant le sommeil
une tête, au fond d’un puit, ne marche qu’à l’envers
obligerai-je à  la nuit  des rayons du soleil

elle aimait tant déplaire, on consuma sa lumière ,
pour qu’on  oublie ,pour qu’on l’oublie , on n’la revit jamais…
elle refusait de se taire, on lui fit boire la mer,
elle ne le dit, elle ne le dit elle ne le dit jamais
on mit son corps en terre, on jugea bon de le faire ,
on ne revit, elle ne revit ,elle ne revint jamais…

Tout au fond Tout au fond d’une oubliette ,
 je me suis enfuie
Tout au fond Tout au fond de l’oubliette, 
enfouie
Tout au fond Tout au fond d’une oubliette,

inertie salutaire , prison de paupières,
que la fosse infinie me sauve de vos guerres

Dans la nuit qu’on m’offre, je chérie, l’ absence… mon coeur maudit a si froid qu’il pense ( heureux)…
libre, il oublie l’enfance, ses amis, les transes, son pays,…. le mépris    

elle savait tant déplaire,  qu’on attentat à sa chair,
pour qu’on oublie, pour qu’on l’oublie , on n’la revit jamais…
elle refusa de se taire, qu’ils aillent brûler en enfer,
elle ne le dit, elle ne le dit elle ne redit jamais
on mit son corps en terre, ils conclurent bon de le faire ,
on ne revit, elle ne revit, elle ne revint jamais…

Mais c’est au fond du cratère que se trouvait la lumière 
qu’elle ne revit, qu’elle n’eut revu , qui ne revint jamais

Tout au fond Tout au fond de l’ oubliette , je me suis enfuie
Tout au fond Tout au fond d’une oubliette, enfouie
Tout au fond Tout au fond d’une oubliette

Track 001 of Magnetic North series

Magnetic North is a Finish-Norwegian collaborative project born during the COVID-19 lockdown. While Earth's magnetic north pole will keep moving in a fast-paced rhythm, Magnetic North will launch new tracks on a regular basis, being a platform to bring Nordic and non-Nordic artists a little closer, at least for a short period of time. Magnetic North focuses on electronic music and sound pieces, and all the possible conjunction points between those two.
