Muskila - Bateekh

The Copenhagan-based DJ, producer  and founder of SWANA-focused club night Bukhar follows a prolific run of EPs in 2022 with two more cuts that blend propulsive club beats with percussion inspired by his Kurdish heritage. ‘QAAR A’ peppers its driving, four-to-the-floor techno beat with finger cymbals, darbuka drumming, mizmar-like melodic samples and vocal chops.

Mastered by Danish techno producer and Kulør-affiliate, Sugar, both tracks on ‘QAAR’ boast an irresistibly revved-up velocity. It’s no wonder the EP’s artwork takes visual cues from the drift-driving community in Amman, Jordan.

Speaking about the significance of incorporating Kurdish instrumentation into his music, Muskila says: “Kurds currently live under a tremendous amount of pressure. My aim with my music is to create more awareness around the Kurdish struggle for independence.

BUY on BANDCAMP

PREMIERE : Muskila - QAAR A

« Morphers » is a rattling 3 tunes split that was forged between French producer Flore and San Francisco’s Only Now. The release represents the unwritten language shared between both friends over the past 7 years, with their affinity for propulsive percussion workouts and livewire bass music. After releasing on the POLAAR label for years, Only Now and Flore finally met in person for a collab long awaited.

Brilliant surprise remix by the wonderful artist @aya_yco ! A slow-burning roaring footwork drum and bass remix of my track Wait taken from my album Pitch Blender.
This one comes as a super yummy cherry on top of the already delightful Pitch Blender remix EP, with works by Scratcha DVA, Jana Rush, Kasimyn Gendang, Jessica Ekomane, Mc Yallah and me.
We've heard with immense joy these being played out there in clubs and on the airwaves. Thanks for the love!

Giving it extra back at you now! Go hear it now

Zoë Mc Pherson - Wait (aya Dub)

Stolen Velour (@stolenvelour) returns to Kindergarten Records with another confident display of intricate sound design and mind-bending rhythmic fluidity. In equal parts an embrace of silliness on the dancefloor and a serious piece of floor-shaking heft, Jasper builds on the palette of his last EP with the label, Onyx, and elevates Stolen Velour’s sound to new heights. A pair of label regulars switch up the flavours on the remixes. Sobolik (@tomsobolikmusic) strips back the opener to inject some space and a touch of dub, whereas Despina’s (@despinadespina) take on ‘I Know, I know’ tames some of the og’s wilder impulses to laser-in on strobing breaks and a wobbly low-end groove.

The Copenhagen-based artist Muskila is set to release his new EP, "OK, Fatma," on the 4th of March. The EP takes the listener through emotive club music, incorporating North Kurdish timbres and delving into the realms of bassy dubs. Muskila originally had an EP ready in October last year but decided to delete all tracks and write something completely different that was relevant to the world as he experienced it. The EP was written between October and December 2023 and is a product of how the artist sees the world changing. The visuals for the music portray a contemporary dancer, embodying the concept of being stuck, either physically or mentally.

Furthermore, the EP has 2 remixes and 1 collaborative song. The 1st one from Siu Mata, who has made a name for himself on the club scene with his versatility and genre-bending productions. The 2nd remix is from the Nyege Nyege affiliated artist, DJ Travella, who is responsible for the most exhilarating music of recent years, injecting crackling cybernetic energy into singeli in a semi-improvisational style. Lastly the collaborative song is made with, HEDO HYDR8, an artist who emerges from the rave-rich grounds of Denmark to create immersive, transcendental musical experiences.

Tous les fonds récoltés serons reversés à l'association @lesmididumieofficiel

all raised funds will be donated to @lesmidisdumieofficiel

Collectif solidaire avec les Mineurs Isolés Étrangers à Paris depuis 2016, les Midis du MIE apportent repas, orientations et soutient aux ados en exils.

L’Association créée en 2016 et dont les valeurs principales sont la solidarité, l’accès aux droits, aux loisirs et à la culture, la dignité des personnes et la protection des enfants, a pour but de soutenir et de participer à des actions en faveur des jeunes migrant·e·s.

Les principaux domaines d’activité de l'association sont les distributions alimentaires et non-alimentaires, les maraudes, l'accompagnement administratif, l'hébergement d’urgence, l'hébergement de jour et lieu de vie collectif, l'apprentissage et culture, entre autres. Toutes ces initiatives demandent des ressources financières constantes

De plus, le lieu qui abrite l'association est sous le coup d'une expulsion. Elle a donc plus que jamais besoin de soutien pour pérenniser ses activités et pour trouver le prochain lieu pour continuer d’offrir un accueil de jour aux jeunes à la rue.
C'est pourquoi nous souhaitons lui reverser la totalité des revenus générés par ce 2eme volume de T.I.G.
