ROMANCE

ROMANCE EP

Encantada

Poetry, speech, melody and electronics combine on this limited tape from new sub-label ‘Purely Physical Teeny Tapes’.

A change of pace for PP, ‘Figures’ is also a divergence for the two artists involved. Emerging from Melbourne, 'Figures' is a rare artefact for devotees of both poetry and electronic music. The release marks a protean coming together by two figures with curiosity for each other's practice, forming a union between sound and speech to explore themes of bodies, time, language and power.

Lucy Van, who works as a post-doctoral researcher in English and Theatre studies, offers her poems in spoken form and also transcribed in full for the poster in the release.

Laila Sakini, a DJ who has recently emerged as a songwriter-producer, shapes music around each poem intuitively, adding context with restraint, in an experimental, yet pop-conscious process.

Initially developed as a one track hobby project for a noise and spoken word poetry night (which was cancelled), 'Figures' continued to evolve into a more complete body of work, with Laila leaking the demos on her NTS guest slots, leading to this eventual, finalisation of an EP.

The release is presented on a pro-dubbed all clear tape, packaged with an A2 double sided fold-out newsprint poster, all housed within a PVC heat sealed pouch.

Out June 2nd, 2017.

Mastered by Rashad Becker.

Edition of 100.

Laila and Lucy:

Lucy writes about poetry and photography. She is a post-doctoral researcher in the English and Theatre Studies program at the University of Melbourne, and an editor at Cordite Poetry Review. Lucy also writes lyric and prose poems, and has spoken at venues including The Slow Canoe, Station Gallery, and the National Gallery of Victoria.

Laila's role as a DJ and emerging producer/songwriter has seen her traverse between her home town of Melbourne and London. She has performed across clubs and festivals in  Melbourne and in various venues throughout London, Paris and Belgium along with art spaces including The National Gallery of Victoria, Carriageworks and The Australian Centre for the Moving Image. She presents semi-regularly on NTS Radio, has appeared on Boiler Room and has opened for the likes of Dopplereffekt and Optimo. Laila has recently begun producing, writing and performing live solo and collaborative works.

Taken from album: LA OLA INTERIOR: Spanish Ambient & Acid Exoticism 1983-1990
Label: Bongo Joe Records (https://soundcloud.com/bongojoerecordshop)
Release date:  4 february 2021
Format : Double Vinyl (incl. special ed. Blue vinyl) w. full colour booklet liner notes + CD + Digital

Malagueñas 2 is the second single release from Bongo Joe's exploits into the history of the Spanish electronic underground: LA OLA INTERIOR: Spanish Ambient & Acid Exoticism 1983-1990. The compilation features 20 tracks selected from a fertile period of electronic music production and experimentation in Spain, which shines a light on a tape culture movement and buoyed by a fetish for an exoticism of Asia and Africa.

Made in 1990 in Tenerife but left to the archives and untouched, until now, Malagueñas 2 is an intense rush of electronic hypnotism and was discovered by compiler Loïc Diaz Ronda:

"I knew Javier Segura was influenced by acid folk in his first attempts and also that the Canarian Islands are the Spanish threshold to Africa, so I knew there had to be some tracks... Finally, I landed by chance on his youtube channel and discovered a bunch of unrealeased tracks from the early 90's. Among them, there were two versions of Malagueñas. Malagueñas 1 was a track with vocals. Malagueñas 2 was the instrumental version and it blew my mind as soon as i heard it. With its complex sound layers and its hypnotic pulse, the track had this Andalucian / Arabic flavour. It has only been listened to 10 times on youtube! Javier told me he loved this track immensely"

LA OLA INTERIOR COMPILATION
With the Spanish recordings and philosophy of the 'musica discreta' (Spanish ambient) movement overlapping the premise and manifesto of Brian Eno and Jon Hassell's Fourth World, compiler Loïc Diaz Ronda wanted to carve out deserved spaces for the artists involved, as key components within the history of experimental music. This 'post movida' selection features some cult and pioneering artists like Finis Africae, Suso Saiz (Music for Memory) and Miguel A. Ruiz but the majority of artists featured are generally unheard of in Spain or beyond. The album includes two tracks discovered and released for the first time ever (Suso Saiz's Horizonte Paseo & Javier Segura's Malagueñas 2), a handful of digital and vinyl exclusives and provides the musical backdrop to a scene that went under the radar, whilst simultaneously to the east, on the white island of Ibiza, another much publicised revolution, was well underway.
