LYRICS
Canta que todo pasa
Se va y se va
Las hojas al viento
Los vientos al mar

Los ecos de tus palabras
Se van, se van
Tus risas y truenos
Se van, se van

La tierra amaneció
La luna despertó
Y una vuelta mas
Las formas cambiaran

Canta que todo acaba
Se va y se va
Las nubes en aguas
Las aguas en sal

Tus manos y sus caminos
Se van, se van
Tus pasos perdidos
Se van, se van

Santi & Tuğçe - Se Va, Se Va (Turu Anasi Remix)

In this marvelous, ever-changing world, all we love and know will vanish and transform. Yet it is precisely because of their impermanence that everything is possible. Featuring Aslihan Güngör on the harp, “Se Va, Se Va” weaves together jazzy harmonies, dreamy synths, cosmic lyrics and invites the listener to dance with an open heart. Brazil based Maga Bo brings a chill, uplifting dub vibe, while Ukraine based Turu Anasi embellishes the dreamy melody with melancholic synths and groovy beats.

ABOUT GiZ:

Giz is a passionate music selector based in Berlin. She's currently making her joyful babysteps in a musical journey which - overloaded with so much heartwarming inspiration -  began a few months ago.

She grew up listening to vinyls from all around the world with her music aficionado father, which no doubt plays a role in her choices in life and music. She speaks 6 languages and is very much moved by all languages (from Indonesian to Mandinka) and instruments of any kind. 

She likes conveying ideas and experiences through her occasional writings but also believes in the immense power of silence and music- both as tools helping us (re)connect with each other and with the moment, in the moment, moment by moment. In the here and now, in unity. Slowing down- without rushing, racing, competing. Remembering we are here and alive, breathing in and out with vivid appreciation and gratitude for what is (just as it is) and for all the wonderful music that flies through our ears. Simply dancing and chanting while the music is being played, remembering we are here and alive.

Lyrics:
Bir gün sen henüz uyurken
Kim bilir hangi düşlerde
Uzun ve sessiz yüzüne baktım
Ve belki masaldır dedim
Belki kıyıya vuran dalga
Belki dalgadaki gemi
Belki gemideki güvercin
Belki güvercinin sesi
Belki şarkımla yeniden doğan güneş
Belki güneşin ötesi
Belki de küçücük bir kıvılcım hayat
Belki bu da bize yeter
 
English Translation:
One day while you were asleep
Who knows in what dreams
I took a long and quiet look at your face
And said maybe it is a fairytale
Maybe it is the wave that hits the shore
Maybe the ship on that wave
Maybe the pigeon on that ship
Maybe the voice of that pigeon
Maybe the sun that is reborn with my song
Maybe even beyond the sun
Maybe it is a tiny sparkle, this life
Maybe that is sufficient for us

Album Description:

A mythical creature of Iranian legends and fables, the Huma bird is also a common motif in Sufi and Diwan poetry. Although there are many legends about this bird, common to all is that the Huma is said never to land on the ground, and instead lives its entire life flying invisibly high above the earth.

Omerar Nanda's "Huma Kusu" takes its inspiration from an old Anatolian folk song. Once upon a time in Turkey, there were two passionate lovers: Mustafa and Gülbahar. The day after their wedding, the state called all young men of the country to the military. Mustafa left home, knowing that maybe he would never see Gülbahar again. Years passed, no news of Mustafa arrived. His family lost all hope. Gülbahar went out to the garden every morning and waited for his return. With each passing day, she cried and cried, until her tears dried up. Heartbroken by this loss, Mustafa’s father created a requiem in which he called on the Huma bird to bring hopeful news about Mustafa.

Steps Adrift tells the story of a journey into the unknown through the depths of sea and sounds of long lost memories. Álvaro Suárez delicately weaves together his melancholic violins, an Icelandic lullaby, and dark, driving beats in this album, accompanied by two remixes by Samarana and Cigarra that recount their alternate versions of this story.

DESCRIPTION:
Every song has a story to tell. This song tells the story of the wind, the breath of the universe. The wind is elusive and full of mysteries. No one knows where she comes from, where she is going or what she brings. In these volatile times that we live, we dedicate this song to trees whose breath nourishes our world.

"Respira + Remixes" EP features three exquisite remixes from three talented artists along with Santi & Tuğçe's original track. The remixes are by Chilean composer and producer Rodrigo Gallardo, Guatemala based producer/DJ Mose, and Berlin-based producer/DJ San Miguel.

All label proceeds from this EP will go to 8 Billion Trees Foundation that plants trees and rescues animals around the world, especially in the Amazon and whose mission is to "change the world one tree at a time".

LYRICS:
Ella no precisa preguntar
Ni pedir permiso al llegar
Tiene secretos, nadie sabrá

Cuando pasa tiembla el matorral
Y el bosque no sabe olvidar
Los tallos recios, se quebraran

Suena por el mar, llanura, arboleda, río
Moldeando serranías al sonar
Suena por el mar, llanura, arboleda, río
Moldeando cataratas al sonar

KYBELE Records - Yemanjo - Na Procura (Zuma Dionys Remix)

Gelincik is a song about the arrival of spring, a gentle reminder that darkness is not merely the absence of light, but rather the birthplace of new life.

LYRICS (TURKISH):
Buz tutmuş dalda titreyen serçe
Sen o güneşli rüyanı sakın yitirme
Bahar gelecek bu şehre yine
Uzakta bir yerde gelincik açtı bile
Upuzun gecede
Hep bir özleyiş vardır
Kuytu caddede gizlenen serçe
Sen o hüzünlü rüzgârı sakın işitme
Umut doğacak bu şehre yine
Uzakta bir yerde gelincik açtı bile
Upuzun gecede
Hep bir bekleyiş vardır

LYRICS (ENGLISH):
The little sparrow that quivers on the frozen branch
Don’t you lose your sunny dream
Spring will return to this city
Somewhere far away, a poppy has already bloomed
In the long, long night
There is always a yearning
The little sparrow that hides in the secluded street
Don’t you listen to that gloomy wind
Hope will be reborn in this city
Somewhere far away, a poppy has already bloomed
In the long, long night
There is always awaiting

Santi & Tuğçe - Gelincik (Geplantes Nichtstun Remix)

Archaeological evidence from prehistoric times suggests that the Earth was once viewed as a living, female being. Ancient texts and mythologies support the idea of a female deity associated with the earth and all life. The Phyrigian Earth Mother Kybele was one such figure among many and represented the earth, mountains, caverns, and all nature, the birth of humanity, the universe and everything in it. 

Inspired by this timeless and universal vision, this project is dedicated to featuring and celebrating the bounty and beauty of the creative works of women in music through special podcasts, original releases, and mixtapes curated by women producers, DJs, and musicians of a wide range of genres from around the world. 

In addition to highlighting the works of women in music, Kybele develops opportunities for broader inclusion of and greater collaboration among emerging and established artists  of all backgrounds through the "Friends of Kybele" series.
