#17 in Club MTV's Big 20 | Playlisted on Trace Hits.

Deep House infused Pop flavours a track you can’t afford to miss. Beautiful vocals lace the track and offer something different to the usual sounds we are accustomed to at the moment. The vocal hook partners with a deep bassline and infectious percussion to create a wholly atmospheric track built to be played loud. Keep your ear out for the soulful sax solo in the middle of the track, too. Releasing on ArchangelUK Recordings, ‘Rainmaker’ is a modern day twist on the Deep House vibes we’ve grown to love over the past years.

‘Rainmaker’ is the first collaboration between celebrated Dutch electronic music artist NATHASSIA and one of India’s hottest producers GAR. Nathassia explains “the song is inspired by a lens to the future when climate change wreaks rampant drought”. Described by Grammy winning writer/producer Bruce Elliott-Smith as “mystical melodies, haunting lyrics and ecstatic Saxophone”.

NATHASSIA’s current single with D3FAI “In My Head” is #9 in Club MTV’s Big 20 and playlisted on MTV Dance International. In MY head has already had support from KISS FM and was #9 in the Beatport Big Room Chart. Her previous single with D3FAI ‘Change The World’ had huge support from KISS FM and was playlisted on Club MTV & MTV Dance International, Clubland TV and reached the MTV UK’s Top 20.

NATHASSIA & GAR - Rainmaker (Extended Mix)

Nessrine grandit dans un cadre familial étouffant et violent qui lui vaut d'être surnommée « la prisonnière » par ses amis d’école. À l’université, la jeune femme s’isole et se réfugie sur les réseaux sociaux. C’est là qu’elle croise une recruteuse pour des candidat.e.s au djihad en Syrie. Convaincue qu’une vie meilleure l’attend, elle se marie par Skype à un Français djihadiste déjà sur place, quelques semaines après sa radicalisation. Le 9 décembre 2013, âgée de 22 ans, Nessrine embarque dans un avion pour partir en Syrie...

La cage : une Française dans le djihad 
Nessrine a passé cinq ans en Syrie au coeur de Daech. Jamais une Française de retour de l’Etat islamique n’a parlé aussi librement et avec autant de lucidité de ce qu’elle a vécu et des motifs de son embrigadement. Une série documentaire d'Édith Bouvier et Céline Martelet, toutes deux grandes reporters et spécialistes du Moyen Orient.

"Je m’appelle Nessrine, j’ai 29 ans et deux enfants. J’ai passé cinq ans en Syrie dans le territoire de Daech. Je suis en liberté conditionnelle et j’attends l’ouverture de mon procès." La voix de la jeune Française paraît d’autant plus douce que la descente aux enfers qu’elle raconte est terrible. Fuyant une famille violente et oppressante (sa première "cage"), Nessrine, en manque de repères et manipulée par des islamistes, est partie en Syrie en pensant se rendre utile auprès d’un peuple en souffrance. Elle pensait aussi pouvoir y vivre plus librement un Islam radical. Elle paiera cher sa naïveté et son manque de repères, tombant aussitôt entre les griffes de l’État islamique dans une Raqqa mise en coupe réglée. Revenue de tout, après deux mariages avec d’importants djihadistes, elle est la première Française à faire, de l’intérieur, le récit intime et détaillé de la mécanique du monstre terroriste et de son propre parcours. Un éclairage indispensable pour comprendre la mécanique de l'embrigadement et du terrorisme. 

Édith Bouvier et Céline Martelet sont toutes deux grandes reporters, spécialistes du Moyen Orient. Elles ont publié "Un parfum de djihad" (éditions Plon, 2018), une enquête inédite sur les Françaises de l'État islamique. Elles ont tout récemment remporté le 3ème prix radio pour un reportage à Idlib (Syrie), au Prix Bayeux Calvados-Normandie des correspondants de guerre.

La cage, une Française dans le djihad (1/4) : Les failles

Die vierte Dimension

A Tram Von Mir (Von Woin Und Von Tuan)

Read by Jessi Hempel

“Fascinating, funny, and wise, The Family Outing is an affirmation to all of us who know the pain and shame of hiding our truest self, and a stirring invitation into the courage, freedom, and joy of living our whole truth.”—Glennon Doyle, author of #1 New York Times bestseller Untamed, founder of Together Rising

A striking and remarkable literary memoir about one family’s transformation, with almost all of them embracing their queer identities.

Jessi Hempel was raised in a seemingly picture-perfect, middle-class American family. But the truth was far from perfect. Her father was constantly away from home, traveling for work, while her stay-at-home mother became increasingly lonely and erratic. Growing up, Jessi and her two siblings struggled to make sense of their family, their world, their changing bodies, and the emotional turmoil each was experiencing. And each, in their own way, was hiding their true self from the world.

By the time Jessi reached adulthood, everyone in her family had come out: Jessi as gay, her sister as bisexual, her father as gay, her brother as transgender, and her mother as a survivor of a traumatic experience with an alleged serial killer. Yet coming out was just the beginning, starting a chain reaction of other personal revelations and reckonings that caused each of them to question their place in the world in new and ultimately liberating ways.

- How to create a culture that gives support to people that want to be vulnerable and authentic for the benefit of the company and for themselves.
- The unique challenges CEO’s face and how they can build a support system for themselves.
