Savage Curios

Kutter About is Kusht’s personal postcard to his teenage days and younger self.
The feeling of being young and spending the summer nights awake is not something he wants to forget.
We try to keep our inner child alive but with the absence of festivals perhaps some of us lost connection to their childhood?
The songs reflect that feeling of being alive with friends and staying up all night to dance and talk a little nonsense.

Kutter About nods to the Kutter stage of Fusion festival and the Scottish term “Cutting About” which is to stroll aimlessly.
Connecting this album with the hope that people with a desire to Kutter About can do this whenever they feel like.
You might hear these tunes when you are out and about - we hope they will resonate in a playful, joyous way.

Kutter About

Kusht - Trippin' Out Back

"This remix speaks to me" said Kusht when we first heard Soček's version. And indeed there is a hidden message in this track that reveals when you don't expect it. I guess that is what happens when two musical genius are bringing their skills together into a project like Trippin Out Back. Have a listen on your favorite music app, this is out today ❤️

Kusht - Trippin' Out Back -  Soček Remix

KUSHT - Radio Buena Vida 08.10.21

I found this song a long a time ago and was knocked back by the inspiring story of a little girl who stands up to segregation and inspires others to follow. I immediately connected with it's sound and message and felt compelled to make an edit and donate 100% of its earnings to a charity of the correct fit. 
After some digging around i found a great charity here in Scotland which helps minority groups develop their creative talents, education, employability, advocacy and mental health. 

This edit wont be free but it's still only a quid and if you can give a little more I would really appreciate it :)

KUSHT – Radio Buena Vida 06.04.22

With a recent dash towards the sun I found myself in the north of Tenerife, lush gardens and black sands I was taken back by how beautiful this side of the Island was and felt I was more in Central America than the Canary Islands.
As a little task and something to keep my ears busy I decided to record those familiar sounds of heading off on your Holidays and created a new Ambient Journey, not all sounds are as tranquil as the waves crashing on the rocks but sometimes we need to suffer a little to appreciate the joys of life.

Happy Holidays,

Kusht

My Oh My! Its been a rollercoaster of a summer! In fact its been a crazy year for Kusht, from releasing my first EP on Drosssel to playing my favourite stage at Fusion in little over a year i can only extend my fullest thank you to everyone who has shown so much trust in my music. 
Opening the empty stage you can only imagine i had my worries about playing to a playa with the odd tumble weed rolling through but that was not the case. Thank you to those who sat and waited for me to bring the beat and the crazy amount of masses who came running and cartwheeling towards the stage. 

This is a gig i truly cherish and wont forget so it brings me great delight to present this to you all :)

KUSHT Live @ Seebühne Fusion Festival 2018

From 1958 the melody comes from "El Choclo" composed by Angel Villoldo in 1903, one of the most famous tangos ever written.

Ahh... what a lovely stage to play at the amazing Garbicz Festival. Hidden amongst the Teepees and Trees lies the magical place of Lichtung where folk came to relax and play. Ive never been so happy to see the bottom of so many feet as everyone lay down to listen but then rose after the rest to dance.

This is a mix of Exotica and Down Tempo and I hope you enjoy this set as much as i did to play :)

Peggy O'keefe is a Scottish Jazz artist who some time ago asked my father to convert her album "Mood Chevalier" from Vinyl to Digital as it was a limited press and she fearer it would be lost over time. Not being a task for commercial purpose but personal, only my father and her have the digital master and this is how i came across this piece of music.

Original recording taken from the Akademia LP by the Laboratorium Pieśni Choir Gdansk, Poland.

I found this incredible album about two years ago by the Gdansk University Choir and it really blew me away, so much that this is the second instalment of three in which i have and will be sampling the album. One of which is from my Vardo Album's opening track Ketri Ketri. I dug this edit up in December and decided to be a bit more experimental with the beat and tronic's of the track.

It was a sparkling Saturday night at Fusion Festival, all dancers were out of their shelters after the burning sun had set, the energy was raising high when Buddy aka Kusht (https://soundcloud.com/kusht-music) stepped on stage and began his show. Kusht is a Norway-based Scottishman born under the sign of Aquarius, who has been playing in bands for about sixteen years and started his electronic productions seven years ago. His first steps into this new dimension were not really firm, he says. His loud, rock background was clear, but he couldn’t really identify his electronic sound until he visited Fusion Festival for the first time, four years ago. In that very inspiring chaos he found his path, he finally knew how his productions were about to sound, and here we have a great taste of that. The set that we are about to bring to your
ears was recorded live at the Dub Station. It comprises exclusively his original material, some of it was released on his latest vinyl ‘Together’(@ynfnd), and some is still unreleased. For this live set Kusht unleashed his guitar and selected the tracks he plays it the most on, so the set sounds more like a rock performance with world-music influences, rather than the typical electronic set. The artist confessed to us that sometimes he wishes he had an extra arm playing live guitar throughout his performances. 
Enough words spent, it’s time to listen to this amazing set...and to listen to it LOUD!

The Sound Offs - The Angry Desert (Kusht Kung Fu Edit)

Things We Need & Love Mixtape

Once again we invited the Scottish Folk, Blues, Electronica mastermind KUSHT to craft a new release with us and voila!

We are proud to present the album "KUSHT - Master".

The "Master" album tells the strange stories of our unlikely practices and beliefs. It touches with a playful tongue & cheek manner on our history with fraudsters, believers and those whom pioneer the strange arts.

Powering beats and catching melodies, soaring guitars and heavily distorted synths with weird hooks to catch in your mouth will pull you to explore the many layers and meanings of this album. With tales of fraudsters, fortune tellers, hypnosis and deceit. Sit back and enjoy this magic carpet ride.

Meditative Shredding Mixtape

In 2019 I was given the chance to play a full 360 degree sound system in Thailand, the stage was built by the Polygon team and they are most certainly at the fore front of immersive sound. Given this opportunity I decided to create an ambient stereo track to which i would mix to the back left and right of the stage, my goal was to fool listeners into potentially thinking a boat drove by or someone was riding a horse at the festival. (lol). I don't think anyone heard a peep with all the other sounds and distractions going on but I got to create something which has always fascinated me.

With that being said I opened the project and polished it off to create this first instalment, I tried to create as many environments as i could within the space of about 30 minutes so it really takes you on a journey from the ocean spray to the busy streets of New York. I guess this could be used in tv, film, musical sampling or even meditation perhaps? I don't know, but i hope you can find a creative use for it and if you do please share it with me :) Hummmmmmmmmm.....

Love & Hugs

Ambient Journey Vol.1

***Release Date 23/02/21***

With an ever growing curiosity for the genre "Exotica", I took inspiration and created this little musical selection for you. Stealing small elements from the past and adding my clunky riffs to create a sort of love letter of sonic wisps, I weaved a tale of one soul's journey to escape the pressures of today's life but to only be pulled back in by the crushing ease. Why is it so hard to disconnect? I'm suffering from Nostalgia syndrome...
