DC Promo Tracks #865: Aroma von Troisdorf "Falte Des Glucks"

Stood perched atop the hill, he watched out from beneath the old acorn tree taking in the world as it wandered slowly past. The clouds moved quickly overhead casting scattered shadows over the dense greenery of the fields. Soon the autumn would engulf this place and the hours would grow small and dark. For now it were as if he were taking in the very last draws of summer air. Soon the smell, the taste and the feel of the warm radiant haze would be long gone. 

Aroma von Troisdorf is set to release a new LP on Papercup Recordings, a wonderful krautrock inspired affair which dazzles and intrigues in all the right places. Perfect autumnal ambience.

Influential German artist DJ T. continues to work under his new alias Mathami with a second superb EP on his newly formed Pura Danza label. Both vital tracks reflect his love for the spirit of Africa and the continent's diverse music and cultures.

Ecstatic Dance is one of many forms of Conscious Dance but has become by far the most popular over the past 20 years. Since DJ T. discovered these events in the Sacred Valley of Peru a couple of years ago, he has been shifting his activities towards this fast growing ceremonial dance culture. As a skilled music selector and curator he is channeling all his experience to find his very own way of creating the musical journey for these events. The transition of the past years has finally led him to launch a new music label, Pura Danza, and a new artist persona, Mathami, to shine a light on the vast cosmos of music that gets played at Ecstatic Dances and beyond.

This second Mathami EP opens with the superb title track featuring infectious drums and percussion that build towards an epic high. Uplifting bells and marimba join a choir of tribal vocals that lead you to a euphoric peak before you sink back down into the pure, irresistible and funky groove. The excellent 'Entasim' carries the energy of a ritual dance of male warriors that dance themselves into a trance. It's a journey into hypnotic percussion, layered with ethereal chimes and bells and powerful vocals from Kenya's Massai tribe, recorded during one of their famous formation and jump dances.

Arany is another fascinating and authentic window into the beguiling world of Ecstatic Dance and Pura Danza. ‘Arany’ will be available on streaming services from 29th October with the full release available on sale and streaming on 12th November.

Step Up Party Originale (new old school)

Up next are our dear friends The Zenmenn (@user-847972032) with whom we have a new 7" and more coming up soon. For the special occasion they came up with an unexpected mix extraordinaire while being generous in answering our questions. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: When did the first idea for The Zenmenn project present itself? Did it start with a few existing songs, or is it a conceptual project?

ZM: A couple of years back we got the opportunity to join this cool studio run by a gentleman called Franz. We did some stuff with friends and at the same time we just began jamming and recording what we did, and eventually we had a couple of songs in our hands, that we thought sounded interesting, and it dawned upon us that we should spend our time working on our own stuff. The name The Zenmenn came later, probably most of the album was recorded by then. There are still some old jams on the Zenmenn hard drive filed under Pharaohs Lounge, which is one of the earlier name ideas stolen from an alcohol free coctail bar near the studio.

MFM: Quite some fans refer in their comments on the LP to the '80s and include terms like 'melancholic' and 'nostalgic'. What are your thoughts on comments like these? 

ZM: Oh that’s nice. It’s generally very nice to hear people describe our music. Today a guy told us he thought we sounded like an Ethiopian band played on 45 with John Mayer on top… could be something to it. 
But true - it’s not really a party record and some of the songs like topaz or homage to a friendship certainly have a nostalgic, melancholic tone. Also the 80s vibe is well helped along by the Dx7 that features on every song. The presets we use are mostly the legendary e piano which features in all the 80s power ballads and the amazing fretless bass that still sounds better than any of the other fretless bass presets we’ve come across. Harp and steel drum are also great.

MFM: If all your current equipment would break down and you'd have to work with newer instruments of modern technology instead, how would that affect your music? Do you think you'd still non-mistakenly sound like The Zenmenn?

ZM: Most of our keyboards are from the 90s or even early 2000s, like the Triton Le and the Casio Ctk900 with which we recorded this whole mix. The 90s stuff is way more affordable. In some way we would probably sound the same cause we don’t loop, quantize or produce music in a contemporary fashion, and we’re into certain chord progressions and grooves. If we wanna play one pattern for 5 minutes, that’s what we mostly do, and then you always end up with some embellishments and quirks. But making music comes a lot down to workflow and if we had some fancy new synth in your hands with a thousand effects, sequences and menu diving we would probably do something different. That could be cool too,  but at the moment we prefer the old school approach. 

MFM: Thanks so much for this very special "mix". Tell us about it please?!

ZM: We made a mix of tracks we liked but it didn’t really come across too original so we decided to take another approach. Magnus plays around on keyboards whenever he can, and the way we make music is mostly just jamming something and then giving it structure as we go along. Magnus made 2 jams and we put them together and chopped out things that didn’t seem to fit, but mostly everything is recorded in one go. Our friend Helen Wells came by and played some harmonica, guitar and tweaked some pedals. We overdubbed some Casio, cool voices etc. Ben had a couple of curatorial suggestions in the end and did some great spoken words. Since our first little tour this summer Magnus has been carrying around some small drawing books and has been noodling away. This has been a great influence on this mix where all the decisions have been quick, with a loose hand and not too many layers. We’re happy to have the opportunity to make a mix and we’re very inspired to do more just like this.

“Concerned Burners”, the brittle but punchy opening track of RSS Disco’s album “Mooncake” gets a mind-boggling remix treatment. In charge are Keshavara, the band with the most kaleidoscopic approach to pop music in Germany right now. The result is a song that’s super colorful, funky and full of aural surprises. Music that escapes genre and boundaries - multi layered, frisky and uplifting.
