Host Meg Wolitzer presents three works about women who defy the status quo and might therefore be perceived as “dangerous.”  In Margaret Atwood’s “Unpopular Gals,” fairy-tale archetypes reclaim their power. The reader is Ann Harada.  A boisterous and brilliant student threatens to upend the order of her high school in Shanteka Sigers’ “A Way with Bea,” performed by Pascale Armand.  And a Victorian-era wife fights for her sanity in Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s classic “The Yellow Wallpaper,” performed by Carrie Coon.  The show also includes commentary by the Egyptian-American journalist and activist Mona Eltahawy.

Virginyah, RSN - Therapy Sessions Remixes & Instrumentals 

Catalogue No: TMDG 227
Release Date: August 26, 2022
Media: Digital & Special Edition CDR

Back in February 2021 Virginyah made her debut solo appearance on Timewarp Music with her inspiring release 'What Do You Want'! Now, again with the remarkable contribution and guidance of Rsn in the production, we are very happy to present some new versions and instrumental tracks of this release! 

Virginyah, RSN - Therapy Sessions remixes & instrumentals showcases two new remixes and five instrumental versions of the original release! 

Well known producer and dj Jayl Funk introduces the release with his take on 'Get Away'. Jayl Funk with his signature sound and production gives his version of a more funk downtempo, soulful groovy version of the track. The warm playful vocals of Virginyah are harmonically combined with a trip hop groove style giving us a sweet, mellow result. 

Greek - Crete based and one of our Kraak Records favourite, mCurtis, is responsible for remixing 'Why'. The result is a downtempo trip hop gem, very atmospheric and chill out perfectly encasing Virginyah's ethereal vocals! 

All five tracks of the original release are also presented in their instrumental versions - giving a shout out to the amazing production of Rsn while giving the chance to instrumental dj's to be able and spin the non vocal versions.

Virginyah, RSN - Therapy Sessions Remixes & Instrumentals will be available on August 26, 2022 as a digital download and special edition CDR at timewarpstore and all digital music retailers and streaming services worldwide.

Therapy Sessions Remixes & Instrumentals

7. Virginyah,. Rsn - Out Of Control (Instrumental)

In a city filled with dangerous yet heavily regulated alchemical magic, a man from the slums discovers he may be its only hope to survive certain destruction in this wickedly entertaining fantasy. 

Welcome to Bezim, where sword-slinging bravi race through the night and rich and idle alchemists make magic out of mixing and measuring the four planes of reality.

Siyon Velo, Dockside brat turned petty alchemist, scrapes a living hopping between the planes to harvest ingredients for the city’s alchemists. But when Siyon accidentally commits an act of impossible magic, he’s catapulted into the limelight—which is a bad place to be when the planes start lurching out of alignment, threatening to send Bezim into the sea.

It will take a miracle to save the city. Good thing Siyon has pulled off the impossible before. Now he just has to master it.

A dazzling fantasy bursting with wild magic, chaotic sword-fighting street gangs, brazen flirting, malevolent harpies, and one defiant alchemist.

"From the razor-sharp social climbing to the glimmering alchemist's library to the hidden realms beneath it all, I loved getting lost in this dazzling debut." —Shannon Chakraborty

Can You Help Me Find My Mom?

La masturbation est plutôt silencieuse ? D'accord, mais ça n'a pas empêché Internet et la bande dessinée de lui inventer une onomatopée : fap. L'histoire pourrait s'arrêter à cette simple signalétique masturbatoire sans importance. Sauf que sur Internet ce n'est jamais simple, et que toute culture crée une contre-culture. Ainsi, le fap a généré le NoFap, mouvement anti-masturbatoire destiné à faire reprendre en main leur vie aux hommes... à condition qu'ils n'y mettent plus les doigts.
