Premiere: Maoupa Mazzocchetti - Don't Succeed (w Mika Oki)

Glass asked to their favorite artists of the experimental electronic scene to deconstruct and destroy their album ‘Anxiety Prime’.

This various, built around classic and recognizable Glass fragments, redefines the album in a totally new way and gives it a fresh ambient and club touch.
This is the soundtrack to another stressful & violent world.
 
We cannot thanks enough the artists involved : Aho Ssan, Apollo Noir, Christian Coiffure, CNDSD, KMRU, Low Khey, More Eaze, Zero Crossing Point & ZULI.
And of course Glass who also included a brand new live version of their iconic track ’Skin Transfer’.

Boomkat Product Review:

Heavy-duty Indian soundsystem carnage by its leading proponent DJ Smiley Bobby, on Uganda’s immense NNT - unmissable for anyone wowed by recent videos of Indian sound clashes, priming the label for incoming heat by DJ TSR.

A proper mazza from Maharashtra State in Western India, DJ Smiley Bobby’s ‘Dhol Tasha Drum Exercises’ presents nearly an hour of up-to-the-second, electronic re-interpretations of ceremonial drums. It’s a full-frontal example of the rave energies in BRIC countries currently catching fire internationally, paralleling innovative mutations of Baile funk in Brazil or from the Svbkvlt lot in China with a ruthlessly rough brand of dancefloor discipline that sharply bends tradition into the hot present. Yr ears will not deceive you - DJ Smiley Bobby’s gear is frankly some of the sickest we’ve heard in a minute and we expect this introduction to be prized by any ravers unsatisfied with Western club music’s increasing tendencies to imitate-not-innovate.

First formed by the late Shri Appasaheb Pendse in the ‘60s, Dhol Tasha Drum exercises were originally performed on a sort of acoustic kettle drum but became electronically adapted in recent years thanks to the likes of DJ Smiley Bobby and peers including DJ Aasif, DJ Ammy, and DJ TSR, the latter of whom is due to drop an album with NNT this year. DJ Smiley Bobby’s introductory session finds the sound at its stripped down and breathless best with a ceaseless battery of drums and percussive madness that truly puts willing bodies thru their paces as the mixtape steps from side A’s 90-110bpm workout to its 150bpm ‘Hard Drum Sound System’ on the flip.

Also kinda mirroring the way DJ Plead has flipped Arabic drum styles, how Bilou XIV have transposed Senegalese mbalax drum patterns onto machine grids, or DJ Diaki’s Malian balani knee-ups, we’re certain this one will light up the pleasure centres of proper dancers everywhere, and dovetail with the sort of thing Beatrice Dillon makes, or anyone who’s been scouting zones where Indian bhangra and UK rave music bump fists, a la Mick St. Clair’s remixes of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

Un-fucking-missable!!!

One brilliant and diasporic result of the journey Angolan music has made through urban Europe. Nazar has produced work after work, extremely progressive in the advancement of the matrix that is the basis of his lexicon – between the deconstruction of being Angolan and many other broken and mutated origins over time.

“KUDURO-AXIS: Luanda, Lisbon & Beyond”, with DJ Znobia, DJ Marfox and Nazar, is presented by maat in the context of the “Terra Irada” programme curated by Pedro Gomes. This programme was presented during “maat Mode 2020”, between May and December.

Jokkoo mixtape is the first close look as a collective to sonic origination. Eight tracks are compiled in it, navigating among energetic calibers and moods. By listening to it, we can perceive how diaspora is a stamp and a condition that assists them to rove through the most personal memories and heritages.

The notion of community and collective healing play a crucial role within their practices, and therefore, in each of the tracks, lyric narratives and intimate poetics have been drawn to nourish their imaginary and help them decode  identities, complexities and intensities.

Emanating a mixed-blood, nomadic, emancipated and futuristic character, the music they’re presenting explores the most electronic, industrial, emotional and hybrid sound, also entering afro bass, deep fried, obscure aesthetics and the most alternative expression frequencies.
