Amazing slide guitar sound, Michael. Big love.

this is relaxing joy for trance heavy ears…^v^

Never disappoints! I have been one of his strongest supporters and fans for years, and his compositions changed my life. Love to hear what's to come. Nice work Michael.

Listen to the 100th edition of Free City Radio, the last in a series of interviews worked on in collaboration with breachmedia.ca

In this interview we hear from Chris Gusen of 350.org in Canada speaking about possibilities of climate justice victories within the context of a minority Liberal government. This interview presses on the important of sustained and committed grassroots action around challenging the great distance between the political rhetoric of the Liberal Party around the climate and their support for corporate oil and gas pipelines being built on Indigenous lands, like the Coastal GasLink pipeline on Wet'suwet'en land. 

In this interview, Chris specifically speaks on the political rhetoric deployed by Justin Trudeau during the last Federal election around a "just transition," from fossil fuels, and the urgent need to see that rhetoric translate into actual policy.

Seabuckthorn - Hand In The Upward Sky

Ian Hawgood and James Murray began Slow Reels in 2018 from studios in London and Warsaw. The early work involved exchanging heavily modulated long-form textures, recorded on a variety of instruments, notably vintage synths. Reiterative digital manipulations and successive destructive passes through an end-of-life reel-to-reel tape setup resulted in a collection of entirely unrepeatable drone suites.

Their debut Farewell Islands for Morr Music was met with widespread critical acclaim. Sustain, presented now by Fluid Audio, extends the force of this uncompromising aesthetic further, as the artists’ shared medium further degenerates into overwhelming, full-frequency emotion.

Voices for Palestine - Freedom for Palestine is freedom for all

Live on Radio AlHara

An international mix of soundscapes, poetry, music, spoken reflections and sounds of solidarity demonstrations from around the world. The sounds on this transmission express support for the Palestinian people and the Palestinian struggle for freedom. 

As Gaza continues to face deadly bombardment at the hands of the Israeli state, it is more crucial than ever to raise our voices together around the world to not only demand an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, but to call for justice in Palestine more generally. In the cultural and music world this means cutting links to Israeli state backed cultural institutions. Now it is as critical as ever to learn about the intergenerational struggle for freedom in Palestine, an anti-colonial struggle that finds a sister struggle in the South African struggle against apartheid. 

A note to say that all the music, protest sounds, poems, mixtapes and sounds in this broadcast are included with permission. It has been great to work with people all over the Earth to bring together this material.

Thank you for listening to this broadcast. – Stefan Christoff.

If one is searching for a beacon of light in Lost Tribe Sound’s undeniably dark roster of releases this year, look no further.  The Green Kingdom’s new full-length album ’The North Wind and the Sun’ is like a cool breeze on a heated summer day.  Perhaps music this gentle feels out of place, even glutinous, given the currently harsh climate of the world, yet the truth may be that we need it now more than ever.  Music like this offers an opportunity to pause, to regain our center, to shift focus towards bettering our surroundings versus cursing them.

Of course, here at headquarters we pondered what would happen if Cottone abandoned the majority of his electronic equipment and limited his arsenal to nearly all acoustic instrumentation? It’s a similar question to the one we proposed to Cock & Swan back in the day, with their exceptional album ‘Stash’. Asking Cottone kindly, he obliged. After a number of months of trial and error TGK delivered us this experiment, titled 'The North Wind and The Sun.' We were floored, not only is the music still undeniably that of The Green Kingdom, it seems to exude a new sense of wonder and confidence. 

'The North Wind and the Sun' is the aural equivalent of the fondest, hazy memories gleamed from childhood days past. The melodies are playful and comforting like womb-filtered lullabies. While this new delivery may shock some familiar with TGK’s previous outings, Cottone seems quite comfortable with this new primarily acoustic set of sounds, inventing his own heart-warming brand of Americana. 

That said, the music pays respects to its roots, no doubt recalling the more pastoral, primitive works of William Ryan Fritch and Western Skies Motel, the woozy mechanically-inclined folk of Boards of Canada or Part Timer, the bright, sincere melodies of Amiina or mbira virtuoso Richard Crandell. Throughout the thirteen song album, 'The North Wind and the Sun,' The Green Kingdom gives us a very intimate look behind the curtain, one brimming with personality, a tender collection of homespun reveries one can tell has been building in Cottone’s mind for years. This is a rare and sublime new direction for TGK, one we hope he continues to develop upon for years to come.

The Green Kingdom - The Singing River (from The North Wind and the Sun)

Lost Tribe Sound is a record label that specializes in organic and exploratory sound. Lost Tribe Sound admires music that leaves its tattered edges proudly in place, acoustic instrumentation blended seamlessly with dirty mechanics, timeworn sound worlds rooted in the muck and the mire of the present. The sound generally falls along the lines of bizarrely rhythmic, beautifully decayed electro-acoustic music, often with a reverence for low-end. LTS focuses on full-length albums, with a strong commitment to well-made packaging. The aim is to unearth timeless music that pushes the envelope of modern composition while paying homage to the ancient.
