We All Try

After the well-received and genre-bending album that was last year's „Ky Do Mar“, Studnitzky
makes another wise move: By inviting two of the most sought-after remixers at the moment to rework two of the album's tracks the German Jazz-trained trumpet and piano player shifts his music smartly towards club land. 

To have an album coming out on Berlin's Sonar Kollektiv and not ask Paskal & Urban Absolutes to contribute a remix for this 12inch would have been a crime. Here's the reason why: The crazy-busy twosome still has so many ideas in store that they come up with one their best remixes ever. „Grandola“ gets a new shift-pulsing percussive beat which suits the guitar, trumpet and piano of the original perfectly. But it's also a sheer act of genius how Paskal & Urban Absolutes turn the song into a Balearic house breed with a jazzy edge. Don't sleep on this if you're about to dance on a beach or any other open air party!

If a song has so much soul like „Oh Africa“, a remixer has to pay close attention not to burn his fingers. That must have been one of the main reasons why Barck consigned his old acquaintance Osunlade to fulfill the task. The New York based producer and label boss (Yoruba Records) is on a roll with flawless, sophisticated releases and remixes for almost twenty years now (his album „A Man With No Past Originating The Future“ released in January of this year is another highlight). And this guy surely knows how to take African elements and lots of Soul to build an ambitious dance track. That’s exactly what he does with his remix for „Oh Africa“ and thus makes Reunion No. 4 one of the absolutely essential release of 2013.

REUNION4 - Alex Barck - Oh Africa (Osunlade Remix)

Ibibio Sound Machine are set to release their debut LP through Soundway Records. Fronted by British / Nigerian vocalist Eno Williams, they combine elements of West African highlife, disco, post-punk & psychedelic electro soul. Preceded by the pulsating first single 'Let's Dance', ‘Ibibio Sound Machine’ will be released 17th March.

Folk stories, recounted to Eno by her family as a child in her mother's South-Eastern Nigerian Ibibio language form the creative lyrical fabric of the album. A large dose of electronic elements and an approach as influenced by London as much as by West Africa, give the vocals and guitar lines space to breath without being overwhelmed.

From the banging sub-bass of 'Lets Dance' to the spiritual, gospel-tinged notes of the album's opening track 'Voice of the Bird', the band have turned in a dynamic and, at times, beautiful take on modern afro-soul music.

The 8-piece live band made their official live debut at this year's Transmusicales in France and will be a name to look out for in 2014.

Riverboat Records: Celebrating 25 years of making music from around the world

For more information, visit: http://www.worldmusic.net/store/item/TUG1082/

Riverboat Records celebrates it twenty-fifth year in 2014. Since its founding in 1989, the independent label has supported creative new music from far-flung corners of the globe.
This limited edition compendium offers a taste of the excellently eclectic Riverboat sounds from across the years.

Music From The Source includes music from thirty-three bands spanning across two bumper discs. Spotlighted artists include Greek folk duo Kristi Stassinopoulou & Stathis Kalyviotis who kick off proceedings with a track from their album Greekadelia which reached number one in the World Music Charts Europe. Monoswezi’s haunting minimalist sound fuses the music of Mozambique, Norway, Sweden and Zimbabwe together in seamless interplay. Indian slide-guitar maestro Debashish Bhattacharya expands his otherworldly sound Beyond The Ragasphere on virtuosic yet quirky track ‘Indospaniola’. Jaipur Kawa Brass Band’s bombastic party music presents an infectious exploration of Indian military music spun together with refigured Bollywood classics.  Lesotho-based ‘junk funk’ renegades Sotho Sounds craft their own instruments as heard on ‘Ba Ea Bojoa (Part 1)’.

Lala Njava’s offering is a Malagasy marvel featuring her silvery wandering voice, lush rolling guitars and rippling percussion. Nigerien nomad bluesmen Etran Finatawa contribute their Wodaabe-Tuareg musical melt. Shiyani Ngcobo acoustic guitar picking illuminates his mastery of the wonderful Zulu maskanda dance style. Boris Kovač & La Campanella’s melody ‘Pearl’ aches with their distinctly Balkan nuance. Klezmer troubadours She’Koyokh spoon out their re-imagined Eastern European folk on ‘Esmera Min’. 

Kardemimmit’s song ‘Ahven (Perch)’ is played by the fresh folksy kantele quartet from Finland. Cuban son band Sierra Maestra deliver their personal account of the nation’s infamous enveloping dance style. Koo Nimo’s lilting palm-wine music flies the flag for Ghana and village ensemble Wayo summon the ancient polyrhythms of Africa’s newest nation, South Sudan. Yunnanese ‘Mountain Men’ Shanren close the set with ‘Drinking Song’ from their new album, which has the UK media hailing them as ‘Chinese folk-rockers to watch’ (The Guardian).

Riverboat Records would like to take this opportunity to wholeheartedly thank our supporters. Music From The Source is not only a resplendent retrospective but also highlights the breadth of talented artists that have been given an international platform thanks to Riverboat Record’s ongoing work since 1989.

Love Fever is an East London based outfit famed for their salacious soirées in a variety of the capitals basements, lofts, art galleries and strip clubs. The associated label ‘Love Fever Records’ is a vinyl only project aiming to outlet physical chunks of the muggy eroticism that’s clung to the air at the parties. With previous releases from Bicep, Citizen and Ron Jason & Kim Ann Foxman, the next installment comes from party regular and Voyeurhythm co-founder - Ben Sun backed up by Australia’s Mic Newman (aka Fantastic Man). Together the pair fit the remit like a glove using nothing but the Juno-60, MPC60 and S3000 to bring together sizzling textures, swollen synths and sultry, creeping vocals and create a steamy and palpable atmosphere.

‘Fall Upon You’ is a brooding opener - granular synths and clicks are propelled by a full-bodied throb and a softly rotating bass sequence. A vocal reprise is dropped in and out, bolstering progress alongside gently bubbling Juno patterns. Slightly more physical than it’s predecessor, Ben Sun’s own ‘Shadow Dance’ steadily progresses behind flickering hats, darting clap patterns and a glacial synth drone. Vocals refrains fall in and out while melodies continually blossom until the close.

Sabre - Bali

Postiljonen is a dream pop trio deriving from Scandinavia. The band emerged quietly back in September 2011 and is composed of Norwegian vocalist Mia Bøe alongside Swedish multi-instrumentalists Daniel Sjörs and Joel Nyström Holm.

After releasing a handful of online only singles in their native Scandinavia (including the heartbreaking interpretation of Whitney Houston’s classic ‘How Will I Know’, renamed here to ‘All That We Had Is Lost’) the trio have managed to create a highly characteristic sound, where ethereal and alluring vocals are interwoven in a mystical, ambient, dreamy and lovable expression. They have been compared to the likes of M83, Air France, Sigur Ros, jj and Cocteau Twins.

Taking inspiration from old black and white movies, the golden 80s, Balearic scenery, sleepless summer nights and describe themselves as nostalgic daydreamers, all of which mirrors beautifully within Skyer’s ten songs.

Featuring singles ‘Supreme’ and Atlantis’, Skyer is summery pop music at its best; made for lazy days and dreamy nights.

Skyer is released on July 22 2013.
