I love that stagger beat. What a cool guitar style.

Recorded & mixed by Adelina Sasnauskaite. a Lithuanian born painter and tattoo artist now living in London, this mixtape features a personal & intimate compilation of field recordings made while spending time with people met on the road in Senegal and Mauritania – Fulani griots of Fouta-Toro, Baye Fall devotional chants and anything encountered in between.

ON THE ROAD … IN SENEGAL & MAURITANIA (RIAFC149)

https://orcd.co/omasta-anklebreaker

The basketball court. The smell of hot asphalt. Dust hanging in the air. A samba rhythm driven by a bouncing ball — sometimes low to the ground, sometimes soaring above heads. On the bench, local hip-hop heads nod to the Brazilian beat, but today, this isn’t their game.

Third single from the upcoming debut is a story of scraped knees, jammed fingers, and twisted ankles – a soundtrack dedicated to the street legends of concrete courts.

Even before releasing any studio material, Omasta had already won over audiences across Europe with their powerful live performances. “Ankle Breaker” is the next glimpse into their upcoming album, Jazz Report from the Hood, set for release in autumn 2025 via Astigmatic Records.

Omasta - Ankle Breaker

 I keep seeing these people, all recognising each other. Something is passing between them all, some secret. 

Ballad For A Number Station

Yek (Single Edit)

An intimate sonic portrait of Odesa, a Ukrainian city along the Black Sea. Produced by Ivan Samokrutkin, with support from the podcast Here There Be Dragons, this densely layered sound collage weaves together raw and haunting field recordings (audio documents of air raid sirens, the hum of a restless city, the distant murmur of the sea, snatches of conversation, and mechanical pulses), remixed local sound art, and processed samples of acoustic instruments (bayan, kalimba, flute, tambourine, psaltery, and more) to create a shifting and fractured soundscape of a city marked by war, tension and stillness. 

Many thanks to Ivan Samokrutkin, Jess Myers, Adriene Lilly and Olivia Bradley-Skill.

Tears in Rain (The Mix Cut)

Tears in Rain (The Mix Cut) Part 2

Skramz. Screamo. Emoviolence.

Welcome to emotive hardcore, a sound that has no definitive origin but is a blend of a variety of settings and tones. 

I'm honored this round to be joined by two very excellent friends, Geoff Rickley of the band Thursday and GENG PTP aka King Vision Ultra. Each of us have curated different snapshots of origin stories, packed living rooms, harsh and melodic sounds, and one big middle finger to America.

We're all ready proud of this. It came from an organic dialogue and if we weren't restricted with time limits probably could've gone on for at least another hour. 

Expect a positive ferociousness.

Stop platforming Israeli government officials and professional genocide apologists. Stop asking them what they think. Stop presenting their lies and manipulations as news stories. Stop asking them if they agree with their critics. Stop doing it. Stop.

At Cosmic Compositions, we’ve long felt there was a similarity between the avant-garde/free jazz scene of the 50s/60s and the modern beat generation. Both movements aimed to deconstruct, expand and rewire the conventions of their genres of origin, and were never afraid to experiment or work outside the commercial framework of the time. With our Avant Garde Series, we connected the dots between the two, paying homage to Empire State Musicians like Pharoah Sanders, Alice Coltrane, and Sun-Ra along the way. 

In more recent years, we’ve sensed kindred spirit between jazz-infected beat music, and the new generation of lo-fi funk, psychedelia, noise, and folk musicians operating around the globe. While we’ve been feeling our way towards this liminal zone with projects from the likes of Mr. Armish, Affsid Kidjhagiffy, Aporia, and our Way Out compilation, jitwam’s new album ज़ितम सिहँ might be the most beautiful expression of it we’ve released yet. 

Born in Assam, Gauhati, in Northeast India, but currently based in New York’s storied borough of Brooklyn, jitwam spent his formative years in New Zealand and Australia, before living in monasteries in Thailand, orphanages in South Africa, and washed out apartments in London. Of everywhere and nowhere, his music draws influence from a litany of iconoclasts including, but not limited to RD Burman, Moondog, The Velvet Underground, Yayoi Kusama, Jay Electronica, Jay Dilla, Moodymann, Leon Thomas, Madlib and Asha Bhosle. 

Across the album he utilises knowledge acquired through years spent digging through dusty crates, and talents honed as a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and vocalist. A series of stumbling, jazz/soul-rooted beat sculptures, each buried beneath a haze of fuzzy psychedelia, broken microphone blues, and articulated through a freestyled process he describes as “first thought, best thought”, ज़ितम सिहँ solidifies jitwam's spot as a major emerging talent. 

Recalling the fourth world dreamscapes explored by oddball songwriters like Connan Mockasin, Clarence Clarity, Jai Paul, Silicon, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra, it represents a time of transition and remembrance for jitwam, while still fulfilling the core qualities he looks for in song. In his words, “Music is a refuge. A shelter from the storm. A place you can go to close your eyes.” 

Since he first shared his music with IZWID Records boss Kutmah at a Brainfeeder afterparty in London, jitwam has released through Leaving Records, Cosmic Compositions, and The Jazz Diaries (the label he co-runs with Casey Van Reyk and Nigel Mphisa). He’s also written with Inkswel (BBE) and Paul White (R&S), featured on Moodymann’s K7! DJ Kicks compilation and been championed by Gilles Peterson, Alexander Nut, Andrew Jervis (Bandcamp), and Funkineven. Mixed and mastered by Matthew David at Stones Throw studios in Los Angeles, ज़ितम सिहँ will be available on vinyl and digital formats through Cosmic Compositions / hhv.de.
