Serenades Edit #22 - Yulduz Usmanova - Hur Kiz (Quasar Edit)

Embracing the essence of unfiltered creativity, ‘Basura y Mierda’ presents ‘Mugre’ EP that dares to break the conventional norms of music production. The concept behind this release was to create something joyous, untouched by heavy editing, capturing the raw vulnerability and genuine emotions of the male experience on the dance floor.

Drawing inspiration from the pulsating energy of life, the creators sought to convey a sense of propulsion and vitality in their music. The message embedded in this EP is a reminder to artists everywhere: do not overproduce your music; be courageous enough to unveil the first version of your art. Sometimes, the initial spark can be lost in subsequent iterations. Embracing a light-hearted approach, the project's name, "Basura y Mierda," reflects this irreverence.

‘Mugre’ is a collaborative effort and marks the duo's inaugural release, with much more to come in the future. The creative process was driven by instinct, capturing everything in full takes, with minimal editing and no reliance on loops, except for a couple of drum machines used sparingly.

The mood and atmosphere of the EP immerse listeners into a state of late-night revelry, where the desire to dance meets the thrill of self-discovery. It's a blend of fun, courage, love, and encouragement, creating an experience that resonates deeply.

"Basura y Mierda" defies genre constraints, touching upon elements of New Wave, Dark Wave, Disco, Trance, Balearic, Minimal, and Electronic music. As a debut, Mugre EP serves as a glimpse into the unknown future of the artists' musical endeavors. Audiences are invited to stay tuned, as "Basura y Mierda" promises to continue pushing boundaries and exploring uncharted territories.

PREMIERE: Basura & Mierda - 3 am

Butterfly Mind

Kalyi Jag - Rumelaj (Dr Parnassus Edit)

The Passport To Paradise gang are in fine form as they serve up four more tripped-out disco edits for the globally-minded savant. We take sail with the excellent 'Thru Wit’ Waitin’', a beefed-up guitar chugger reminiscent of 70's AOR in its steady percussive work and misty sax solo. It’s the guitar line that really shines here, lifting the tune into funk transcendence in the bridge. 'Anybody Out There' here premiered reaches out to the disco trippers with its northern Italian cosmic kitsch feel : starry-eyed synth pads float above reverb-soaked guitar musings and playful French vocal samples. A particular highlight. On the flip, PTP take things south with a soulful West African shuffler guaranteed to elicit some arresting footwork. The EP leaves us with resounding vibrations from the Far East: ‘JP Wave’ explores ethereal planes, building up a dense rhythmic fabric punctuated by bass stabs and ornamental chimes.

PREMIERE : Soft Rocks - Anybody Out There

Little is known about this freaky duo whose sound straddles opposing polarities, merging organics and synthetics, joining traditional textures with futuristic finish. These are sample-licious tracks that also feature original vocals and raw analog synths. They are noisy but clean, rough but smooth, soft AND crunchy.  

On one hand, it's mad-cap multicultural disco funk as on Si Jambo (translated loosely as 'ALL GOOD') and 2Tac Onana, and on the other it's cybernetic weirdness and italo-inflected electro with 'Non-Binary Joys on the Venus Holodeck' and 'Czary Mary,' which sounds like it could be the flip-side to Sharivari.  

In between this binary divide is 'Something For the Mind,' a brilliant piece of pop music that springs lightly into your brain with catchy bleeps, incredible vocoder, and a beat guaranteed to get the braindance party started.

Si Jambo

Mytron & Ofofo - Non-Binary Joys on the Venus Holodeck

On side-A, Nicola Cruz tracks Apnea and Marea blend dembow and soca rhythms with modular music, leaving space for these harmonics to create dance patterns. Both are a duality of ideas that have travelled across the oceans, from Africa to South America, and back, reinforcing the idea of accentuation in music, rather than the usual straight forward dance structure. These are songs that evoke a primitive feeling, crafted on a contemporary head.

On side-B, Pigmalião tracks B2 and Ocrânimo explore acid lines and syncopated rhythms for darker dance floor environments in distinct BPMs sealing a proper b-side storytelling for the release.

Apollon Telefax is Pavel Grachev, a new up and coming artist from Russia. Little english does he speak but enough that we managed to arrange everything for his debut EP on Calypso. 
It's better if you listen to the complete EP by yourself instead of us telling you what every track sounds like. However, we can tell you that his EP is full of Electro & Psychedelia in a very Russian way.

PREMIERE: Apollon Telefax - Niphodance [Calypso]

Music to trip to. Music to meditate on. Music to upgrade your DNA. Music to get your whole family dancing. Music to teach you. Music to live by. Music to die to. MUSIC TO MULTIPLY YOUR MIND.
