Ibeyi — Barasu Ayo (D. Harbinger Bootleg)

Then one day sisters Díaz strolls into my life and retune the vibration of my everything just enough for me to ultimately crack open and let go. In sculpting their tender voices I learned to trust my own. How lucky am I?

A meditation on living with the principles of fate or destiny. 

Recorded live at WSLS Studio, Berlin, 2017. One take to tape. 

Players: Richie Setford - Voice/Guitar...Magnus Bang-Olsen - Organ...Ben Anderson - Drums...Andres Barlesi - Piano

Oh Great Unknown

Der Freundliche Sultan - Laurie

A little gesture to all the people struggling and fighting against the power basically. 
Although the word is primarily established for the healthy white male (which I am), I do understand and am aware of the situation of so many persons in the world.
This is also a tribute to Angela Davis, a strong and powerful woman. 
Hope you like it, and most and for all, brings a little awareness. 
Warme groet en volg je hart.

Against Oppression; a short reflection of the inner soul dealing with contemporary issues

Beside she often plays at the “Park” parties in the Union bar and at the Test FM in St. Petersburg and in the Noor Community and Leveldva in Moscow. She is also a resident in the Blanc and Big Wine Freaks, where she plays a variety of music right up to Downtempo and Psychedelic Rock.

Wooden Peak - Electric Versions
Format: LP / Digital
Release Date: 26 Feb 2021
Purchase: woodenpeak.bandcamp.com/album/electric-versions

Wooden Peak have always been a band of quiet exuberance. Since 2008, Sebastian Bode and Jonas Wolter have been writing, developing and constructing music that trembles with energy and yet is always restrained. They fill quiet moments with irrepressible power, they place virtuosity, fantasy and demand at the service of small, dazzling gestures. In their four records they take the idea of "more than the sum of the individual parts" and turn it on its head. They create arrangements full of space and air, allowing their music to breathe and its energy to spread in peace.

Their new record is a compilation of electrified versions of selected previous tracks. Therefore, it's only logical to call it “Electric Versions”. It is equally logical to focus “Electric Versions” not only on the functional fourtothefour and heavy bass beats. Instead, the record is simplistic and reductionist, allowing space for more delicate beat samples and careful arrangements. Lastly, it was a natural conclusion to expand the band’s orchestration for “Electric Versions” to include clarinet and trombone - a deliberate choice of instruments to create a space for both electronic and acoustic sounds. Ultimately, achieving simplicity through expanding the ensemble - classic Wooden Peak.

Wencke Wollny and Antonia Hausmann are busy musicians in the german scene lending their instrumental skills and voices to other artists and to their own band Karl die Große. They blend into the ensemble Wooden Peak as if all this had never been any different.
Sounds, ideas and habits from the last 12 years are transported into the present with ease, conserving the power of every moment whilst setting it free. Using guitar, sample park, trombone and bass clarinet, they create clever rhythms and bizarre arrangements, they draw eccentric images in jarring colours. Hausmann, Wollny, Bode and Wolter are firmly grounded in their music, fluctuating between a common core and peripheral perspectives. Remarkably simple and within an impressive context. Jonas Wolter's singing has always reflected the level-headedness of the music. But "Electric Versions" also gives him more space and his lyrics a platform, placing three more quiet voices at his side and pushing lyrics gently forward to the edge of the stage. Social blindness, self-optimization in times of neoliberalism, rules and breaks, gross simplifications and the despair of it - "Electric Versions" throws light on this special language, which is free of pop clichés, asks questions, disrupts boundaries, but always allows for charm and enchantment.

"Electric Versions" collects interpretations, replays and updates from the band’s debut to the last album "Yellow Walls". It is an exhibition, a snapshot and a draft of the future all in one. Sebastian Bode and Jonas Wolter think and develop music as few other artists do.
Wooden Peak’s variations create sounds and experiments that are in many ways incomparable. They are precise observers, delicate analysts, thrifty fantasists with the courage of precise simplicity. A band of quiet exuberance, vast and still radiant.

- as we wander through the purple field, we experience the innermost feelings of love. The trees, the insects and the birds. We are nature, we are complete.

he spoke in a voice of velvet
six rabbits with fluffy white ears
pearls where his teeth, bright diamonds his eyes
a million white flowers in a field in the sky
the children stayed children and they lived in their dreams
