Explorations into Cumbia (mixtape #3)

Uji spins a hypnotic spell of sounds on debut solo release; “Alborada”.

“Alborada” pays homage to the moment where the darkness and the mysteries of night transform into new possibilities with the first light of daybreak. Electronic production and alchemy never felt so close; creating an overall infectious enchantment that feels ancient at its core while exuding a variety of tasteful sounds from today. 

Uji (Luis Maurette) is a nomadic electronic producer and multi-instrumentalist born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and raised throughout Latin America. Half of the pioneering duo “Lulacruza” since its inception in 2005, with whom he has released 5 albums, a feature film and multiple world tours. His music is dance floor bound: rooted in various indigenous traditions while borrowing from the aesthetics and sound design of electronic music. With his new solo project he has already toured extensively around Europe, the US and Latin America even before his debut album has yet to drop.  

Reflecting his experiences in both the Latin American and Afro-Latin diasporas, Uji´s enchantment seems to suspend time, encompassing the present while drawing from primal essences ingrained in our collective unconscious, enrapturing us in the ritual of dance. On tracks like “La Descarriá” featuring Corina Lawrence and Miss Bolivia, Uji skillfully crafts scenes from the high plains of Bolivia in their yearly carnaval celebrations paired with a Tarantino-styled guitar riff. Or we find ourselves transported to Colombia’s tropical “pueblos” (villages) dancing into the sweaty night on his remix of Petrona Martinez’s “La Varita de Mariangola/Milagros”, to daybreak in a Berlin warehouse party with “Kiok” featuring Barrio Lindo. Nothing of Uji’s experimentation feels arbitrary, rather carefully woven into multi textured landscapes of sound, where a thought out process is palpable behind each risk.  

Most of the sounds we find in this album are field recordings done by Uji himself, compiling a vast sound bank over the years on his travels all over the globe, including a wide array of instruments from his collection such as; congas, cununo, marimba, balafon, charango, bombo leguero, sonajas, as well as analog drum machines, samplers, synthesizers and vocals. A multi layered assemblage with deep and rich textures from around the world. 

The album also features stellar vocalists, artists that have emerged onto the Latin American music scene such as Sof Tot, a long time collaborator of Uji and a part of the internationally acclaimed trio “Fémina”, and breakthrough artist “Anicca”, singer for the viral sensation “Perotá Chingo” who lends her commanding vocals to the title track “Alborada”. Uji also includes a remix for “Petrona Martinez”, a tribute to one of Colombia’s most prestigious singers and artists, an incredible influence on his music and a Latin American folk landmark.

Collective memories channelled through solar creative processes, glimpses of moments shared crystalized through eery sounds, patchwork of sonic waves and tales of friendships mades 🌱

Just like imaginary plants in the garden of our minds, we turned to the sun to grow altogether and create something new, blossoming to the world 🌼

Mira Ceti - Agua De Estrellas

Shika Shika is proud to present “Rwandance” the second album by German multi-instrumentalist Andi Otto. Anyone that has had the opportunity to see Andi’s live performance knows about his talent as cellist and was no doubt blown away by his self-made device, the “Fello” - a sensor-extended cello bow.

“Rwandance” sees And move into new territory - born out of a meeting between And and Rwandan musician and dancer Evariste Karinganire, while collaborating for the music of dance piece Planet Kigali.

“The idea was to first listen to a music archive of songs and instrumental recordings of instruments from Rwanda. Then I tried to transform this material into my own sound. I was mesmerised from the very first moment when I heard this beautiful language: Kinyarwanda alongside these instruments like the Umuduri a percussive bow instrument, and rhythmical structures, like the 5/4 and 3/4 feelings which are the basis of many songs.”

Andi has a talent for using technology in a way that is touching and touchable, enticing out warm and organic tones from his machines. On “Rwandance” this sensibility enters into a perfect dialog and harmony with the traditional Rwandan rhythms. His break away from the traditional 4/4 structures of electronic music is not only refreshing but full of groove.

"Planet Kigali“ was premiered at Kampnagel in Hamburg at the end of 2018:

"Planet Kigali“ is about a bunch of time-travellers who come back from the future to our present year. They remember that there had still been borders and passports in 2019, a fine, utopian plot… and they represent a hypothesis of what aspects of Rwanda’s cultural tradition could look and sound like in 200 years. The time-warp makes it possible to shift the focus away from the topic of the country’s horrible genocide. Instead of investigating a post-traumatic society, the piece tries to jump ahead to the future and to the past simultaneously. Between old memories or recordings and our dreams, fears or expectations of the future.”

Andi Otto - Umuduri

As penas são macias e servem como isolante térmico e são bastante diferentes das penas rígidas de pássaros voadores. Possui duas garras em dois dos dedos das asas, sendo a única ave que possui apenas 2 dedos em cada pata. As pernas fortes do avestruz não possuem penas. Suas patas têm dois dedos, sendo que apenas um tem unha enquanto o maior lembra um casco. Seu aparelho digestivo é semelhante ao dos ruminantes e seus olhos, com as suas grossas sobrancelhas negras, são os maiores olhos das aves terrestres. Os seus olhos são maiores do que o cérebro

SLVN - Tin - Toumma (Original Mix)

"Este creación de Nombre "Indigital "mixtape, es la simbiosis entre algunos de los temas de nuestro primer EP y experimentaciones más recientes que incorporan nuevos instrumentos y sones. Esta vez quisimos establecer un dialogo entre sonoridades latinoamericanas, árabes y cantos difónicos, entre otros y proponer paralelos culturales con respecto al fundamento de creación musical, común en todas las regiones y es la de la música ritual, extática.

Más allá de haber tenido una emoción premeditada, a la hora de hacer el mixtape, en cada uno de los temas fuimos más bien buscando, como recorriendo un camino, de bases sólidas pero con la amplitud que nos permitió espontaneidad y libertad para la manufactura de una música intuitiva, quizá, especulativa.         

Siempre hemos querido llevar al público, más que un producto artístico, una suerte de vínculo o puerta hacia una emoción cósmica, un paroxismo epifánico; todo esto logrado a través de la suma de expresiones vernáculas y un compendio de recursos musicales electrónicos, catalogando a esta propuesta artística como algo moderno pero arraigado en un fuerte sentimiento ancestral.

Gatokosmiko (grupo base) está conformado por Adrián Lopardo, productor musical y beatmaker argentino, conocido por proyectos como TropicHongo y Punto Rojo; Sebastián Osben de Chile, músico e investigador en percusiones latinas y electrónicas ; Augusto Gómez, músico colombiano especializado en vientos étnicos. Colaboración en uno de los temas, Kurruf Antú músico y DJ chileno.       

Nos permitimos crear el neologismo Indigital, tratando de resignificar la palabra indígena que proviene del latín Indie "de allí" y genes "originario", no solo como homenaje a las comunidades ancestrales, si no apoderándonos de una identidad que trasciende los límites geográficos, culturales e incluso genéticos, lanzando una propuesta, en parte, digital y a la vez análoga".
