Calm & Steady series

- short tracks of dance music (SUPER FRESH)

All tracks were uploaded between 04/2021 and 05/2021, with the following older exceptions:
. . - a r r  "enjoy"(#13): 2 years,
. . - Dave Julian "MILANO EXPRESS"(#20): 2 years,
. . - Talise Waya "Sunshine"(#9): 6 months,
. . - Spaceschneider" Tangible Struggle"(#15): 4 months,
. . - Hi.Her "Sinner"(#1): 2 months.

The other series (short tracks) so far are:
- "Hard-Fast-or-Nasty" (more intense/abrasive)
- "MiddleLane", and "Superdance" (the middle, or ambivalence)
- "Funky-Dub-Trap", and Funky (terminology conundrum)
- "Fantaisies" (for professional dancers only)
- "Minimal"
- "Dark"
- "BreakB-Jungle-DnB"

There is little overlap between them, mostly between: *
. . A) MiddleLane, Superdance
and
. . B) all other series

* Increasingly there is some overlap between "Calm & Steady" and "Funky-Dub-Trap", and between a bunch of others (Dark, Minimal, ...). I'm trying to keep it to the minimum, the overlap, tracks finding themselves in more than one playlist.  I don't think I'm very good at it.

Exilio Transitorio - New album OUT NOW:
Download and vinyl : https://vinu-vinu-music.bandcamp.com/album/exilio-transitorio
Stream : https://album.link/i/1557425920

"viñu-vinu is my electronic music alias. The name viñu-vinu pays homage to my Chilean heritage and comes from the Francization of my father’s last name: Viñuela to Vinuela. On my previous two releases (Encounters, 2017, and Echoes from Afar, 2019) I started a musical exploration of origin, identity, changes, evolution and human relationships to my surroundings and nature. In this new album Exilio Transitorio I’m pursuing this quest further. Exilio Transitorio was inspired by a book of poems that my father, Francisco Viñuela, wrote after his exile from Chile during Pinochet's coup d'état in 1973. The poems, written in Spanish and French, relate his exile from his country, and initiate a humanist reflection on the devastating effects of totalitarian regimes and political wars. Created as a cinematic journey, Exilio Transitorio serves as a soundtrack honoring my father’s book. It is meant to inspire deep reflection in the hope that we do not forget these events and find a better world.

I was an artist in residence with le Centre d'Expérimentation Musicale for two weeks back in March 2019 where I wrote the core compositions and started the production of the music. I worked individually with the artists of the centre to create and rehearse a show that would become the backbone of what Exilio Transitorio is today. The hybrid creations that came out of this process are dynamic and varied, blending electronic music with a six-piece acoustic band, jazz harmony, improvisations, and poetry in a unique and emotional way. Later that same year, I had the opportunity to participate in a six-week artist residency at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. That’s where most of the final production and mixing of the album took place. In Banff, I was also really lucky to meet Julián Muro, an Argentinian musician, singer-songwriter, composer and poet, who graciously agreed to spend some time in the studio with me and record some of the poetry in Spanish. Like the journey that led to the creation of this project, this final iteration of Exilio Transitorio finds its way between light and darkness, melodicism and experimentation, ambience and groove, desperation and hope."

AC Slater & Jay Robinson - To The Top

Famous EP is about chasing your dreams, and not letting anything get in the way. It’s having the passion to go after what you want, regardless of what other people are saying. 

The first record on the EP, ‘Famous’ is my first song rapping on top of my own production. The song is about taking risks and working for what you want. No games involved. The follow up record, ‘Bassline Drip’ with Dread MC has a similar tone. It’s all about taking your shot.

Fuck social media. I ain't stuck with the idea...

Genocide, June 2025:
Israel is only the executioner, every nation which has armed that country in the past year is an accessory to that genocide, an accomplice, a facilitator.  We cannot talk about war crimes because when you target unarmed civilians, mostly women and children, we are talking about a massacre, like terrorists do, not a war. The people who orchestrated that massacre, in the US, the most duplicitous, followed by those of the UK, Germany, France, and probably a few lesser ones should be tried for crimes against humanity just as well as Netanyahu and his cabinet, because it has been going on for two years, generously reported by media of all kinds, so the enablers knew exactly how the arms were to be used, as a tool for revenge, domination, and humiliation of the Palestinian people.  The conflict has ceased to be about the defense of anything for months.

The parties responsible have made a mockery of decency, morals, fairness, proportion, or justice, not to mention empathy.  Of what little there was, these concepts will be a lot longer to come back than they were to be struck down.  

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
