MINJA

Collectively let’s wield humanity. 
Collectively let’s cherish humanity. 
We are all one.

During lockdown we created the song to raise awareness for the importance of humanity in times of crisis. The message is strong and it became the closing track in our live sets. Enjoy!

Kútus & MN.JA - Humanity

The rāga saga is a series that acts as a cultural collectiva of our favourite artists from all over, Each raga is an array of melodic structures with musical motifs, considered in the Indian tradition to have the ability to "colour the mind" and affect the emotions of the audience and this journey (raga) comes from the very fresh @mn-ja

Sharing her truth with you when singing vulnerably from her open heart.💓
She has been passionate singer & writer of my own songs. Been coaching voices. Having released several tracks on various labels from India, Brazil and Berlin. Curiously playing DJ-Sets accompanied by live vocals.

Her musical journey started in the classical field having sung opera and choir on international stages. With a passion for psychology, bodywork, and mindfulness, She went to share insights about the healing power of music, sounds and texts.

In dimensions of love, where nothing is left behind, you are nourished by the fulfillment of your own dream. 🌌

Waking up in the dawn, glimpsing aliveness from a far.
You can hear the birds of Solaya. 🐧
One of them passes by, rests on your chest and connects to your heart.
It starts to sing a lullaby for you saying it´s name. Minja wants to guide you through an adventure.

By the time you have stretched and stood up you see it dancing alongside the stream with the other birds that you so far just identified by their voices.

“Let us take you on a journey towards the river!”, they sing. 🌊

The rivers water looks temptingly refreshing so you decide to take a dip into it.

From a far you can hear the melody of a bansuri playing, which you decide to go towards to. 🎼
The Bansuri’s melody is coming from a forest, where you can hear various sounds and the voice of an indigenous woman singing. There is a fest which you won’t want to miss. 🎊

Shake it all out and indulge in the dance of your life.
How energizing and nourishing this is. 👯‍♀️💫

You’ll decide to take a rest next to the bushes of the loving fairies. Noticing the burgundy berries hanging from them.
Take a bite of the tasty deliciousness and enjoy the ride.🫐

Drip, drop!
It starts to rain. Wake up to find some shelter. Minja tells you that there is a cave not far away, let’s go there.🌧

Clouds cover the way to the sun, when arriving.
This cave is majestic. Every sound you create is echoing back. You can sense the vibration of drums in your bones. 🪘
Follow me...

It is a bit frightening, to tap into the unknown and exciting at the same time.

Your skin is layered with goosebumps when entering.

Arriving in front of a hall, shivers are crawling up your spine. Listen to what is been said: “Ohm, Namoh Bhagwate...”

Minja sings along and connects your energetic bodies. This is your resonating flow to the vibrancy of the majestic hall.

Dark and profoundly Khalil Gibran’s poem resounds. What is it that‘s been taught?
Find it out yourself following your open heart ♥️

Climb up the stairs that takes you up to the top of the hall.

And in the dawning of your knowledge ...
Your heart tells you that:
Non attachment is not concerned to the outside, but to the within.

Let it go, what does not longer serve you, what just withholds you from feeling liberated and light.

Arriving on the top of the mountain, beholding the magical sundown of Lunaya. 🏔
It is time to fully open your heart, to allow vulnerability.
You are alive, together with your heart bird.
In this moment you are alive, open hearted just sensing pure love. ♥️

We are all one 🌎

Please Enjoy! :))

🌈🔥💫In the process of letting go you set yourself free. 🌈🔥💫
I always dreamt of playing at my favourite club, but this party made it even more special. What a journey this liberation of body shaming and the self caging can be huh?
✨🌟💥☄️
A special thanks to the host of "The Naked Tea Party" Danielle Barnet, a strong and inspirational woman that speaks her truth. I got to know her at @hedone-world. Check out her classes and events if you want to get a glimpse of this.

Sisyphos Nicht Geburtstag / The Naked Tea Party *live vocals* 3.10.2021

Sharing the enthusiasm to merge simultaneously the best of two worlds — organic and electronic music, the Berlin-based producers Distoport and Sebastian Gabriel team up as the duo Kútus, focusing on the slow multicultural music's seductiveness; an unconstrained musical framework coupled with a breaking of the 4×4 contract. With roots in Ecuador and Peru, they consider themselves as part of the slow-music movement and affirm their commitment to the listeners, because music is about connecting with people’s emotions. It’s personal and at the same time, universal.

Guitarist since the age of 13, Distoport has a background in an Indie Rock band and currently is becoming a professional sound designer. His passion for different instruments from variety of cultures has motivated him to learn to play more instruments and implement them in the process of electronic productions. Instruments like the South American charango, the quena, the Pan Flute, and the Turkish bağlama. On the other side, Sebastian Gabriel’s discovered his affection for electronic music at the well-known Fusion Festival 10 years ago. As a Berlin native he enjoyed nightlife there to the fullest but now is directing efforts on his own music projects. Hence, their second EP titled 'Yamii' is the modus in which they found to channel the feeling and their own view on the downtempo, using their personal filters and mutual interests in order to come up with tracks that you can either listen at home, outside or at a party. 

Coming from the era of organic electro, in a way, pairing machine programming with dazzling live performance, the EP is a combinative conjuncture that reminds of desert house, spiritual deep house and andes step, no matter how much we do not agree with genre labeling, the intent is not to strictly limit or exclude music. Also, it is trully filled up with non-perfect grooves, featuring of other artists, drums patterns usually swinging and full-length parts that were played on non-digital instruments. Beneath its easygoing surface, an overwhelming mix of sounds, voices, and emotions can be found over its 24-min length, appearing organic and laidback while being full of sonic nuance.

The opening track 'Yamii', which also gives name to the 4-track package gathered by the duo, has a nice syncopated rhythm along characteristically bucolic chords, where they're experimenting with a Bachata sounding guitar which reminds of Latin soundtracks. 'Intuition' encompass a territory of experimentation and was written in a jam session with the professionally trained singer and songwriter MN.JA and further, the percussionist Perifary added his Hang Drum's touch. By its Caribbean vibes, 'Kermesse' adds a psychedelic twist considering the previous two tracks. Plus, the only original track that got a remix, a work made by the Costa-Rican Berlin-based retrofuturistic live act performer Aloe. 

Certainly, they'll continue to spend a huge studio-time chasing the development of artistic cooperations and expanding the duo's unique universe, with many more artists with different backgrounds, as this is what keeps them going. Kútus comes across both as a genuinely likeable project, curious about the mysterious ways of Downtempo and a passionate and engaged couple. Long may they continue to be so.

An alle da draußen,

es ist Zeit uns "solidarisch zu verkabeln". Mit und für Menschen in Not, denen aktuell jegliche Grundrechte genommen werden und deren Lebenssituation jede vorhandene Hilfe erfordert. Aktuell leben Menschen (alt-jung-krank) auf Lesbos in einem menschenverachtenden Lager (Moria), ohne Aussicht auf körperliche Unversehrtheit und ohne Chance auf ein faires Asylverfahren.

Mit der Kampagne ''Lesbos & Berlin - solidarisch verkabeln" wollen wir ein Zeichen für mehr Menschlichkeit setzen.

Das Ziel der Spenden-Kampagne ist es, einen Beitrag zur Verbesserung der Lebenssituation von Menschen auf Lesbos zu leisten. Mit den Einnahmen unterstützen wir No Border Kitchen, Pipka Solidarity auf Lesbos und die Seebrücke.

Die Spendenkampagne wird flankiert von einer Podcast-Reihe mit Solidarisch Tanzen und Kabelkiste Berlin. Für mehr Aufmerksamkeit, damit Lesbos nicht in Vergessenheit gerät.

Die Erlöse der Kampagne setzen wir zu 100% für schutzbedürftige Menschen ein. In Abstimmung mit unseren Projekt-Partner*innen auf Lesbos und in unserem solidarischen Netzwerk. Sobald die erforderliche Summe erreicht ist, können wir das Geld einsetzen. Alle Unterstützer*innen bekommen nach Abschluss der Kampagne einen Bericht über die Verwendung der Gelder und den Stand des Projektes.

Wo immer wir uns befinden, kann jede*r einen Beitrag leisten, die Weichen wieder auf Humanität zu stellen. Egal wie groß oder klein euer Beitrag auch sein mag,

wir sagen Danke Danke DANKE für deine Unterstützung.

Wir sind Kulturschaffende, Künstler*innen, Aktivist*innen und wollen nicht weiter zusehen, nichts tun ist keine Option dieser Tage.

Es braucht in der Aktion den Willen entschlossen zu handeln. Fangen wir* an.

To everyone out there,

it is time for us to start 'solidarisch verkabeln'. To build a
connection with and for people in need, who are currently deprived of
all fundamental human rights and whose life situation requires all
available help. Currently, people (old-young-sick) live in Lesbos in an
inhumane situation in a mass camp (Moria), with no prospect of physical
integrity and no chance of a fair asylum procedure.

With the campaign 'Lesbos & Berlin - solidarisch verkabeln' we want to
set an example for a more humane society.

The aim of the donation campaign is to make a contribution to improving
the living conditions of people in Lesbos. With the incomings we support
No Border Kitchen, Pipka Solidarity on Lesbos and Seebrücke.

The donation campaign is flanked by a podcast series with Solidarisch
Tanzen and Kabelkiste Berlin. To create more attention for the
situation, so that Lesbos will not be forgotten.

We will use 100% of the donations from the campaign to help the most
vulnerable people. The funds will be allocated in coordination with our
project partners on Lesbos and in our solidarity network. After the
campaign has ended, all supporters will receive a report on the use of
the funds and the status of the project.

Wherever we are, everyone can help to set the course straight, back to
humanity. No matter how big or small your contribution may be,

we say thank, you thank you, THANK YOU for your support.

We are cultural workers, artists, activists and we don't want to just
watch anymore, as doing nothing is not an option these days.

It takes the will to act decisively. Let's get started.

Background Info:

A Yuga or yugānāṃ (Sanskrit: युग, lit. 'age'), in Hinduism, is a large period of time as it relates to the past, present or future. It is mostly used to describe one of the four dharmic ages⁠—Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dvapara Yuga or Kali Yuga⁠—or a cycle of the four ages, Chatur Yuga. Depending on context, it can refer to one of the seasons, generations, reigns, kalpas (days of Brahma), stages of creation (manifest, maintain, unmanifest), or 1,000 year periods.

Requiem for Harmony
is an honor piece made in the name of the harmony that has been lost between humans and
nature.
It’s a dedication to all beings which have suffered and are now extinct due to the continuous
lack of connection between us and mother Earth, whose effects we have been experiencing
especially in the last years.
And last but not least, it’s a call to remind us of that we, right now, find ourselves in the most
urgent of times.
We need to take action now and remember that people need nature and not vice versa.
The Art of healing is within us.
It’s your time.
It’s my time.
It’s our time.
