Burial - Dreamfear (Vinyl Rip)

Burial - Boy Sent From Above (Vinyl Rip)

"𝘐𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘈𝘯 𝘖𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢, the first single from my upcoming album 𝘿𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 is out today on all platforms via Leaving. You can listen to the single and pre-order the album via arushijain.bandcamp.com / leavingrecords.com

As you listen to the first track, I encourage you to picture yourself as the conductor of an extraordinary orchestra, where pink ink and weighted paper, fine needles and shiny brocade, buckets of water and oceans of buckets, hula hoops, and pom-poms all harmonize in composition. Now, picture yourself in an audience. Can you feel your body naturally attuning itself to the rustling of leaves in the wind, the gentle undulations of grass throughout the day, and the melodies of the birds residing in your backyard. You are the spectator to an orchestra of deer shaped clouds, of flora in a forest reflected on a lake surrounded by wheat, of bellows of air that coolly blow through your hair on a hot summer day. Whether you are the conductor, the musician, or the audience — imagine an orchestra 🍃 🎷 🦩 💦 🧶

𝘿𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 has been in the making since fall of 2022, so it feels special to begin sharing my inner world vision with all of you today. More on the album soon, it releases on March 29. I hope you enjoy listening to the first single ✨"

Pour ce quatrième épisode de Chavanon Catharsis, c'est @oscuraresistencia qui est l'invitée de Pelo Renzo. 

Artiste multidisciplinaire basée à Genève, elle s'éprend de pièces orphelines, de mélodies alternatives et autres dérives psychédéliques. Entre balades crépusculaires, matins brumeux ou après-midi ensoleillés : Oscura Resistencia propose dans ses sélections des paysages musicaux contrastés et captivants, à l'image du mix de presque 3 heures composé pour Chavanon Catharsis, entre spoken word, ambient pop, downtempo, explorations dub, folk et krautrock. 

C'est @pelorenzo qui ouvre la première heure avec des incursions folk et ambient.

Chavanon Catharsis - Pelo Renzo inv. Oscura Resistencia (12.04.24)

Rory Bowens heads The Slip one Monday a month, squeezing an hour of hazy dub off-shoots, pupil-dilating shoegaze and uncanny dream music.

A more recent production of a theme I composed I this year, this is a synthwave tune with some great interplays on the synths and guitar

Fear of Flying

A tender journey through nurture and strength, where each moment carries fragility and power. Layers of light and shadow intertwine, forming a protective, vast and infinitely sustaining presence. In its embrace, growth and reflection find their home.
