Este es el séptimo álbum de jiony, y resultó de la selección de algunos de los tracks producidos durante el confinamiento. Los tracks que aparecen en este álbum fueron seleccionados porque tienen un sonido que más o menos se identifica con el Hip Hop Lo-Fi, o por lo menos es una representación del gusto de jiony por ese estilo de música. Después de la música vienen los nombres de los tracks y el nombre del disco. La idea del título “Uno Es Mínimo Dos”, tiene que ver con el conflicto que puede llegar a tener una persona por querer ser, en cierto sentido, libre de los demás. Pero somos animales sociales y necesitamos de los demás, nos usamos, así que uno tiene que ser cuidadoso en cuanto a cómo articula sus deseos de libertad.


This is jiony’s seventh album, which resulted from a selection of some of the tracks made during lockdown. The tracks that appear on this album were selected because they resemble a Hip Hop Lo-Fi style, or at least a representation of jiony’s taste of this style. After the music comes the names of the tracks and the album. The idea behind “Uno Es Mínimo Dos” (One is, at least, two) comes from the conflict that one can have with wanting to be, in a sense, free from others. But we are social animals and we need others, we use each other, so one has to be careful in how to articulate its desire for freedom.

Uno Es Mínimo Dos

Грустное Моё Солнце (re-edit)

Space

Mystic downtempo ambient with deep pads, soft drones, whispered chants and wide spatial depth. A quiet hypnotic journey into the realm of Inner Vibrations.

Veil of the Sacred Pulse

Organic-Electronic remixes inspired by the sensitive and mystical spaces between land and sea.

When Atlanta-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Piper Street Sound, aka Matt Mansfield, created his intimate sonic landscape Barrier Island (2017) he drew inspiration from Georgia's Sea Islands.  The EP saw the producer's kaleidoscopic talents through the prism of Georgia's crown jewel, the beautiful but imperiled Cumberland Island. Barrier Island focused on water and nature, displaying Mansfield's signature production style; electronic timbres woven into dubby organic instrumentation and naturalistic sounds.

Now an array of like-minded producers have remixed his work, and brought their own colors to bear, taking the source material into new spaces. Featuring remixes by Kaleema, Jin Yerei, El Buho, Andres Oddone, and Santi of Santi & Tugce. Most have chosen the album's final set-piece al-lu-vi-al, an exploration into dripping rhythms and splashes of Dub-infused spring reverb. These remixes provide book-ends and centerpiece to the work, with tunes Georgic and ZikaZikaZika rounding out the set list.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cumberland Island, the inspiration for this EP series, is one of the last undeveloped barrier islands on the East Coast. Once owned in turns by the Spanish military, plantation-based agricultural concerns, and Gilded Age robber barons, the bulk of the island was gifted in perpetuity to the National Parks Department to remain a wild, undeveloped National Seashore in 1972. Cumberland Island is at the time of this writing in danger of being carved up and developed. Disruption of the aquatic and avian species and their food sources that season on and around Cumberland Island would have disastrous effects on a global scale.

Rationals - Glowing <Nacho Pitchu rework>

https://soundcloud.com/elmagomusic

Singer and producer El Mago debuts on YNFND with a 4 track gatefold LP entitled `Kanénas ́. 
Based half in Thessaloniki and half in Berlin, he ties between two identities as greek and german. 
Transfusing the roots of urban Greek music `Rembetiko ́ with modern electronica, he symbolises his personal journey with the connection of his two cultural identities. 

On entrance we start with `Gígantes ́, a fusion of vibrant humming, synthetic pops, crackles and the poetic voice of Plastelini. From the get-go we witness a vocal story written about the relationship with your demons, and how to live beside them. Interrupted by erratic gun- shots and bass-heavy shuffles, the message provokes a somewhat conflicting reaction. 

Stepping into what seems like a distorted cave, `Thálassa ́ takes us into tripped beats, off-time glitches and synthesised brush strokes. Swaying between looming hums and a pull and release of echo as it comes to it’s end. 

As we flip the record, a dissonant sample leads us into `Filakí ́, with what can be described as ancient bass. Vocal fragments shout but whisper as they are broken up by explosions. 
By the time the song reaches climax, you sense the origin of El Mago’s roots. 

The finale entitled `Potámi ́ boasts delicate guitar strings, followed by laid-back rhythms and El Mago himself on vocals. A bygone tale comes to mind as Potamós embraces Mago’s musical past as a performer in the more traditional sense, an ode to Rembetiko once again. 
You may think that `Potámi ́ marks the end of his musical odyssey, but in truth it is just the start. He is not Kanénas* yet. 

*translated as `Nobody ́ 

The release is accompanied by 4 tarot-themed cards depicting each track with poems written by Lina Rococco, alongside 1 secret track on vinyl only.
