On the occasion of the passing of Jon Hassell.

Fanfare (for Jon)

For its 53rd release, Da ! Heard It Records proposes Peripateo by Osilasi.
The magnetic tape engages; it’s the start of transhumance. We go from mountain to train, from plane to galactic, from sheep to welding, from desert to opium bar, from sparks to hertzian waves. Osilasi is softness at the cliff’s edge.
The ancestors to be are invoked. There is shared healing in the entanglement of the voices, the toms, the harp, and the machines. The presences are powerful.
Osilasi is resonances and bodies in movement. There are two and still more. The pulse is solid, the string play assured. The landscapes transform in the repetition. The events trip, answer, and absorb one another in echoes across the deployment of various sonorous planes.
Only the materialness of the tape is there to signal us that we have arrived at the end of something.
The explored territories seem to still be full of possible crossings.

"Dans le Salon du Nous" outtake // recorded in 2021

Le Seau
Porté par la fille calme
Les deux pieds collés au plus profond du four
A pain
C'est extrêmement dur de passer son tour
Quand on aime tant ça
Les jambes de bois

Etre charmant en canne
Gratter et voir le squam
Sur la nourriture
Sous le frein de la lèvre
Qui quand elle le pourra
Se pluguera
Sur le pi de la vache

Tout dépend de si on aime se frotter
L'urètre
Sur le sable
Rêche
Rêche

Le maire
Apprend le discours
Qu'il récite sur des rails
Que même s'il voulait voir
Ses enfants mourir
Il ne s'y prendrait pas mieux

Le caissier tombe sous les balles
Le directeur tenait l'arme
Pour se faire remarquer
Ils excusent le supermarché

Vivant de Non - Blumarine And Bupe

Ecstatic is thrilled to announce Foreign Body, the latest release from Barcelona-based Dania Shihab, who crafts dreamlike transmissions into the evocative concept of the 'foreign body' in the context of forced migration and cultural loss. 

A tapestry of sounds and emotions, this work is a product of Dania's exploration of her experiences as an Iraqi-born individual who grew up in Tasmania, Australia, an island where her native culture was completely absent. The profound sense of longing for a homeland that has never truly been experienced reverberates throughout, with each track poignantly capturing the complexities of feeling like a stranger in one's own body and society. 

Inspired by her work as an emergency doctor, the artist delves into the idea of removing foreign bodies, and sees forced migrants as 'foreign bodies' within their adopted societies. This release serves as a window into the emotional displacement of forced migrants and the struggle for cultural identity. 

Foreign Body was written and recorded at home in Barcelona, using a 4-track tape recorder, vocal looping techniques, modular synthesis, and collaged samples of Iraqi musicians and poets from the post-Gulf War era into an amorphous cloud of magnetic drones and soft hypnogogic vocal textures to entrance the listener. 

An emotive and evocative release, Foreign Body weaves together sounds and stories to explore a universal human experience. It is a testament to the sublime power of music to communicate emotion.
