Alberto Baldan Bembo - Kilimangiaro

Footshooter is the moniker of London based producer, DJ and musician Barney Whittaker. His style blends skippy, broken beat production with live instrumentation to create an organic, rich sound and he frequently collaborates with emcees, poets and vocalists exploring different tones and moods.

His last record, Strange Days EP (released on Famous Friends), gained regular plays on NTS, Balamii, WorldWide FM and, most recently, by Bonobo in a DJ set at his NYC Boiler Room.

'Technicolour Nights', due out on YAM Records later this year, is a meditation on long evenings & nights out and how they vary in atmosphere, mood and colour. Opening with the aptly named and ethereal 'Intro', the EP quickly jumps into sunshine territory with 'Juan's Stairwell' before 'On Telegraph Hill' brings the heads down for a meditative two-step groover to close up the A-side.

On the flip, Footshooter flexes his 160bpm muscles on 'Mars' with the help of London based vocalist and MC And Is Phi, before dropping the tempo just a touch on 'Rotations', a steppy, Rhodes-laden journey through London nightlife. 'Our Love' lowers the tempo even further to bring the EP to a close on a bittersweet note.

B3. Footshooter - Our Love

A Quest Called Tribe begins with the series of portraits drawn by Stéphane Carricondo in 2017 dedicated to Hip Hop legends.
As close partner in art Medline proposed to create a soundtrack for them, and first interpreting ATCQ's classics with elements of the past, present and future.

The best way to materialize this multidimensional tribute was obviously a vinyl. And it's the one we unveil today.

On the visual side:
ATCQ's portraits are composing the front cover and, assembled into a great scene, are printed on a colorful A2 poster. Stéphane Carricondo's natural lines are highlighting each member's soul map. The alchemy of the dark ink on emptiness gives to them an impressive sparkle of life .

On the musical side:
The classic themes are transformed into a polymorphic fusion, were jazz, funk and soul from the original sample sources converse with Tribe's characteristic beats. Medline added a hint of his magic, unique rhythms, improvisations, arrangements, original orchestration and inspired melodies.

The album is an ode to the band that marked both artist's life and mind. A cultural print and school of sound that designed Hip Hop foundations. With a blooming expression Medline and Stéphane Carricondo are going to the roots of ATCQ in a quest for the tribe.

VINYL

Magic In Threes - Measly Peace

C’est un pic, c’est un cap, c’est une péninsule de la culture populaire. “Tubular Bells”, c’est comme le thème des Dents de la Mer ou celui de Psychose: en deux secondes, ils filent la pétoche qu’on soit dans sa chambre, sous sa douche ou sur la plage. A une seule différence près, si John Williams et Bernard Herrmann avaient imaginé leurs gros sons spécialement pour les films de Steven Spielberg et Alfred Hitchcock, le guitariste Mike Oldfield n’avait pas du tout dédié ses lignes tourbillonnantes pour le fameux Exorciste de William Friedkin. Au départ, d’ailleurs, personne n’en voulait de son morceau. Et il a ensuite eu tellement de succès qu’il a purement et simplement participé à lancer le label qui a accepté de le sortir, le Virgin de Richard Branson.

Dans son nouvel album prévu pour le 5 juin, Sol (Neue Meister / DistriArt Musique), Pascal Schumacher s’attaque donc en solitaire à cette montagne de frissons. Il en propose une version minimaliste et serrée comme le café là où Mike Oldfield envoyait la cavalerie lourde. Le plus étonnant, c’est que, comme toute bonne reprise, sa version transpire l’évidence, comme si le morceau avait toujours été écrit pour vibraphone solo. « J’ai découvert une foule de choses sur moi-même, plus que je n’aurais jamais imaginé » raconte-t-il au sujet de ce premier disque en tête à tête avec lui-même. Logique puisque le vibraphoniste luxembourgeois est plus habitué aux aventures collectives que ce soit avec orchestre symphonique ou en quartet, avec le fascinant projets Drops & Points avec Maxime Delpierre) ou en alliance avec Bachar Khalifé et Francesco Tristano.

On sent d’ailleurs qu’avec ce titre, Sol, Pascal Schumacher rapproche la solitude et le soleil, comme si la solitude pouvait réveiller un soleil intérieur insoupçonné. Sans doute qu’il n’aurait jamais imaginé en enregistrant ce disque à quel point cette analogie résonnerait quelques mois plus tard avec nos vies de confinés. On espère quand même que le confinement ne sera qu’un mauvais souvenir quand arrivera le moment du concert de sortie de Sol le 14 mai prochain à La Marbrerie de Montreuil.

Pascal Schumacher - Tubular Bells (Le Grigri Premiere)

Music Is My Sanctuary is excited to share a beautiful piece of instrumental psychedelic soul from GODTET, led by the talented Sydney-based guitarist and producer Godriguez (producer of Sampa the Great's "The Great Mixtape").

Godriguez marshalled together some of the best musicians of the new generation in Sydney: A head priest of the Cuban Ifa religion, the step-son of Australia's greatest ever funk and soul musician, Australia's leading drummer in this new generation and a deeply emotionally gifted pianist from New Zealand. These disparate backgrounds culminate with incredibly sensitive musical and emotional connections to form GODTET.

To adjourn the past two improvised records, Godriguez was looking to compose for the next release. The 'Suite' EP is the amalgamation of the earlier GODTET LP sounds and Godriguez's produced albums, through-composed as a 15 minute suite. To be true to the long-form, through-composed piece, the band recorded this release live; one take, no over-dubs and straight to tape.
