Very hyped to host our long time friend Sacha Mambo for this 15th contribution in the series. Lyon-based DJ & producer has been running skillfully Macadam Mambo alongside Guillaume des Bois for almost 10 years. The label has illustrated itself by non-stop releasing since 2012, showcasing a large palette of sounds from Eva Geist, Traxx, Albion, The Pilotwings and many more.
This new mix is a perfect illustration of Sacha's original taste that have no boundaries. Ambient, experimental, jazz, downtempo, psychedelic and so on.  An excellent ovni as we like! Merci Sacha x

Introducing the debut LP from @Nueen !

'Nova Llum' unfolds and morphs through 9 tracks of contemporary Ambient bliss... 
Shimmering fractals of ASMR, combined with Illbient laced electronics & drums - all combine for the perfect modern Balearic flotation tank.

Standing as a personal diary/reflection of the past years challenges, Nacho (Nueen) found himself looking within himself & his immediate surroundings, drawing heavily from his native Balearic home of Majorca - using the Mediteranean Light, Nature, Nostalgia, Mysticism & lifeforms of the Balearic Isles as fuel for the fire, in turn birthing a new found confidence & self-awareness throughout the composition of the album.

We're honoured to share such a personal piece of Nueen's work with you all.

Bless up to Krikor Kouchian for his trademark sub-heavy-sonic-precision skills on the Mastering and many thanks to Lua Oliver for gifting us with the cover art photography.

'Nova Llum' by Nueen is available now via our online store.

X.Y.R.  - Temple Of Solitary Reflections

This new piece; Temple Of Solitary Reflections, was originally created, but subsequently modernized for one of the audiovisual installations (on the subject of a human / megalopolis collision with nature) for an exhibition at the Vinzavod Gallery in Moscow, Russia in 2020. This work is a kind of meditation session, during which there is an establishment of internal connections with nature. In order to find the optimal balance between beauty, fears and spiritual insight. X.Y.R. applies to his music; analog synthesizers (formanta-mini, korg m1), a loop station and field recordings.

Temple of Solitary Reflections releases on March 4th, 2022. Pre-order the album on Bandcamp here: https://handstitched.bandcamp.com/album/temple-of-solitary-reflections-untitled

Premiere: X.Y.R.  - Temple Of Solitary Reflections [HS42T]

Coming out 17 June on Awesome Tapes From Africa

Hailu Mergia & Dahlak Band’s Wede Harer Guzo is the third release on Awesome Tapes From Africa for Ethiopian keyboard and accordion maestro. In the years since Shemonmuanaye, Mergia has revamped his touring career, playing festivals and clubs worldwide, including a recent tour supporting Beirut. By 1978, Addis Ababa’s nightlife was facing challenges. The ruling Derg regime imposed curfews, banning citizens from the streets after midnight until 6:00 am. But that didn’t stop some people from dancing and partying through the night. Bands would play from evening until daybreak and people would stay at the clubs until curfew was lifted in the morning. 
One key denizen of Addis’ musical golden age, Hailu Mergia, was preparing a follow-up to his seminal Tche Belew LP with the famed Walias Band. It was the band’s only full-length record and it had been a success. But his Hilton house band colleagues were a bit tied up recording cassettes with different vocalists. Still Mergia, amidst recording and gigs with the Walias, was also eager to make another recording of his instrumental-focused arrangements. So he went to the nearby Ghion Hotel, another upmarket outpost with a popular nightclub. Dahlak Band was the house band at Ghion at the time. Together they made this tape Wede Harer Guzo right there in the club during the band’s afternoon rehearsal meetings, with sessions lasting three days.
Dahlak Band catered to a slightly more youthful, local audience, while Mergia’s main gig with the Walias at Addis' swankiest hotel had a mixed audience that included wealthy Ethiopians, foreign diplomats and older folks from abroad. Therefore, their sets featured lighter fare during dinnertime and a less rollicking selection of jazz and r&b. Meanwhile, Dahlak was known more for the mainly soul and Amharic jams they served up for hours two nights a week to a younger crowd. 
Mergia released Wede Harer Guzo (“Journey to Harer,” a city in eastern Ethiopia)  with Sheba Music Shop, which was located in the Piazza district but has long since shut down. His cassette copy is the only known source we could find. Jessica Thompson at Coast Mastering managed to restore the recording to clean up layers of hiss, flutter and distorted frequencies, made worse by years of storage. Although there are some remaining sonic artifacts of the era’s recording and cassette duplicating quality, this reissue captures the band’s inimitable vibe. 
Recalling the audience’s positive reaction to Wede Harer Guzo’s novel arrangements, he says it sold well and found many fans. However, as no trace of the tape can be found online, there’s no indication as to why the cassette appears largely forgotten until now.

Night Travel on a Blanket - A story by Reymour

Our latest episode of the Theory Therapy show features a guest mix from Australian multi-instrumentalist Santilli. Max is one of our favourite musicians and selectors around and it’s easy to see why when you get to his incredible mix in the second hour of the show. Last year, he released one of the most inspiring pieces of music to come out of 2020—Kaoru Inoue also seems to agree—on Greville’s Mad Habitat and put out a bunch of amazing mixes, including one for us, so it was an absolute pleasure to have him contribute to Low End Theorists again. He also just released a new Angophora track with Jake Fugar on Music For Dreams which is absolutely amazing.

For the first 60, it’s us with an hour of meditative ambient and jazz, inspired by a trip to Seal Rocks in the Mid North Coast region of New South Wales. There’s new music from Alex Albrecht’s forthcoming Campfire Stories, Zeitgeist & Tucceri’s JIN MU and Vancouver-based producer wzrdryAV’s Midnight Visions. The show is available on mixcloud if you prefer. Tracklist with links to buy are on the website. Thanks as always for listening.
