Mark Barrott Beats in Space Mix (July 2014)

This is side (A) of a 90min mixtape of sounds from Somalia. Mostly everything was recorded before the beginning of the war (1991) or in exile.

Pre-order the upcoming Somali compilation that I did together with Ostinato Records (it features two of the songs of the a-side of ARM Vol. 1):

Time to slip into sleep mode with globe-trotting DJ, producer, sound designer and label owner, Mark Barrott. Deeply immersed in Ibiza, his International Feel imprint has been rooted in the scene since 2009, and is responsible for some of the most iconic Balearic beats and parties the white isle has ever seen. Mark’s Sketches From An Island series is the outlet for music further inspired by his environment and surroundings. Having just dropped, the third instalment is out now via a new subscription service the label have just launched which also features the imprint’s back catalogue and more exclusive material. Head to drip.com/sketchesfromanisland to sign up! But now, its time to hit play, kick back, and get Balearic to the sounds of Mark Barrott.

Concept 08: The Great Journey of the Whales, by Pablo Bolivar (Seven Villas, Avantroots)

The wise men, owning a treasure trove of secrets and comprehended the inmost names, rewrote the pages rom ancient scrolls, and then led them in such a state...Let it be known for this reason a fertile story ...In a certain kingdom, in some states, lived Great Shah, he was exalted by fate, his palace was a work of art masters from Bukhara, facades were white like camphor, reflecting sunlight and directing it in all possible directions...That palace was seen from all parts of the Earth and even the heavenly inhabitants flew down to enjoy this splendor...Around and inside were spread staying in eternal delight gardens, filled, standing shoulder to shoulder all kinds of fruit trees, singing delightful trills birdies and spangled carpets-flowers-stars, fragrant and shining on the generosity of the creator like milky Way...That Shah have a 16,108 graceful, sweetvoice, stareyed wives and 16, 107 indescribable beauty daughters and...1 son, famous for favorable qualities...His name was Nicolas Sheikholeslami, but everyone called him the Sheikh...With talent and abilities, oriented on musical performance, young man played when on horizon of the sky included in full splendor and brilliance of the new luminary and ends when it's replaced by the mysterious smile of the moon, washed by the waters of the seven brooks (creeks)...All kingdom enjoyed this source of living water which he called spiritczualic...Pundits taught him mystic, psycho-active combination, consisting initially of two elements: spiritual & ritualic and then expanding to the universal infinity...With this deep, brotherly connection, he can easily like a gazelle, traveling in cypress grove, create and describe the slightest changes in consciousness, caused by movements of the mind chariot, drawn by five bay horses-feelings entrained in such a sensual rhythms, containing all secrets of time and space...One day, master from the Earth of Dragons, great in the art of contemplation came to the palace...By the call of his nature and because of the innate craving for new experiences, young Sheikh was captured...With astonishment and delight, he looked at the sage, who was sitting in a lotus asana, and in front of him putting a bamboo table, signed with mysterious hieroglyphs, which were laid outlandish tools and...tea...With the acumen of running cheetah and a great desire to share positive sentiments, he played a magical melody, which is so delighted hearing and the sage taught him everything he knew...Ever since that times Sheikh becomes a great connoisseur of tea affairs and got a new name - Caykh...We were there, drank that tea, strong as love, filled and recorded these melodies on the Amateur Exotic page...

Wanderwelle - A Watery Grave [@silent-season]

Phil van Dulm and Alexander Bartels, musically known as Wanderwelle, produce electronic music that balances between the genres of ambient and experimental techno. Last year, their debut album ‘Lost in a Sea of Trees’ was released by the Canadian label Silent Season. The album’s main sources of inspiration were the rich Slavic folklore and the ancient pagan tribes that once roamed the European woodlands. The artists collected field recordings in Russian, Czech and Dutch forests. Throughout the album the ominous howling of the winds and other natural sounds play a prolific role. Within 48 hours the double LP was sold out worldwide, the repress just in a day. Wanderwelle closed their year with a 2.5 hour live set at the legendary Tresor, Berlin.

This year a new album will be released on Silent Season, which is inspired by the last years of the life of Paul Gauguin that he spent on the island of Tahiti. 'Gathering of the Ancient Spirits' tells the alternative history of his search for a land which is untouched by modern society and whose inhabitants were still dependent on the gifts of nature and connected to their ancestors.

Kasheme's Shambhala Sundaze with SoulMate

For this journey our guide @showkati puts us on the back of his camel and rides us through Morocco. In his words below, because we couldn't have described it better ourselves...... 

Labass,

This mix is dedicated to all the gorgeous people, open minded musicians and instrument makers, who overwhelmed me with Atai and were willed to teach me something about Gnawa. Not to mention the faboulous record stores in Casablanca, Rabat, Ouazazarte, Marrakesh and those hidden sellers, who suddenly appeared, when i lost my bearings in the Souq.

The mix contains old vinyls and cassettes, which are rounded up with contemporary digital releases and reissues. Pitched down darbouka tapes, traditional orchestra, modern gnawa, fusion, rock, miserable conditioned pop cassettes and some algerian raï. Featuring labels like boussiphone, koutobiaphone, disque gam, casaphone, radio martiko, nabilophone and so on…

Shukran for making it possible Othmane, Zakaria, Amelie, Jaffer and everyone i forgot right now.

Al Hamdoulilah!

The latest trip comes from Archive Digital, a human well versed in curating musical experiences that delve far beyond the the borders of the visceral... 

This time, taking cues from Guadeloupe, part of the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean. The 'island state of mind' rubs you down with a litre of coconut oil and turns the party up to 50 degrees centigrade.

Affectionately known as "Gwadada" by the local population, its an exotic escape soaked in French and creole customs, a far cry from the concrete jungle of London where the 'Archive D...' archives his sounds.

In the evergreen forests, along with the interwoven paths of the Indians, among the Ancient Pyramids surrounded by Amazonian spirals, our lone pilgrim is steadily overcoming challenges he faces along the way. Stripping away all illusions, he reaches an even deeper level of introspection. 

On his path illuminated by the mystical knowledge from the otherworldly dimensions, our pilgrim wonders about his higher purpose. With this in mind, he reaches his destination. Here, all possible and impossible are tightly knitted together, creating kaleidoscopic patterns ... What a sacred place ...

Images of animals, people, stars and distant planets performing the dance of life appear before his eyes ...

Where is he going to go now? Which direction to follow? Is he going to go right? Left? Go up or perhaps, all the way down?

He closes his eyes ... Deep inhale followed by slow exhale ... Doors of perception open up slowly. Gentle lull of solitary meditation reveals a clue that puts everything in place :

- “It's not so much about the direction, but why you stick to it” ...

The moment his eyes gently blink open ... He chooses love ...

X.Y.R. - AMATEUR EXOTIC'S TRIBE QUEST

Artwork, Selection & Mix by Nicolas Sheikholeslami
----
In 2017, “Sweet As Broken Dates", our Grammy-nominated compilation of stellar Somali music from before the country’s civil war, captured the entire world's imagination. The songs revived heartwarming memories of a lavish Mogadishu and Hargeisa not known to many non-Somalis, and in many ways allowed the Somali diaspora to reconnect with a time and place ransacked by the wicked fates of history.

All our due diligence and research led us to believe that some of finest music ever made firmly stopped when the war started. Hibo Nuura’s song on the compilation, “If the Artist Lets You Down”, added to this perception, as the widely respected Nuura chastised her fellow musicians for what she saw as a failure of their responsibility to keep the country’s rich music culture alive amid tragedy.

But we were wrong. The music did not stop. Both famous and obscure Somali musicians quietly kept their culture alive in the 1990s and 2000s on drum machines, synthesizers, and laptops. The Somali pentatonic sound melded perfectly with new digital equipment, almost exhibiting an even more authentic sound as analog western instrumentation vacated the repertoire. Most of these recordings were kept private or shared in small circles, never reaching the same audiences in luxurious venues as the music of the 70s and 80s.

This is Chapter 2 in the Somali music story, not Vol. 2. 

At Ostinato Records, we want to reimagine the sequel for music compilations. Too often, “Vol. 2” is filled with the choice cuts that simply did not qualify for the first volume. As storytellers and image-makers, this approach needs a rethink. We have a responsibility to carry the story forward, to not simply rehash what has already been available, and to give agency to the recent past rather than constantly hark back to the 70s and 80s.

“Import/Export Mogadishu” is the side A of a mixtape to announce that we are deeply immersed in producing "Sweet As Broken Dates Chapter 2" and to give fans who relished the first compilation a sneak peak into the direction we’re headed. Side B of the mixtape will be an insight into Chapter 3.

The selection begins with a slow-burning groover by the lively Xabib Shaarabi, a key Somali music figure in the 1990s whose digital disco style was celebrated in a short but viral documentary by The Guardian. We are also proud to announce that Xabib Shaarabi along with lifetime achievement award winner, Cabdinuur Alale, will be performing in Berlin on March 23 as part of the Find the File Festival (https://www.facebook.com/events/1142289929266253/)

These are the next stages in the Somali music revival: the advancement of a story with endless chapters and the resurrection of former greats and live bands, reunited to showcase what no war could vanquish: the resilience and adaptability of the Somali experience.
