Polymorphous (ALTERNATE VERSION)FREE DL

Two guitars, a drum set, two female voices and a sound saturated with reverb. Influenced by garage and psychedelic music, blending the world of acid westerns and dark mythology, Canyon Spree's music combines melodic riffs to 60s/70s, fuzzy and echoing tones

01 Badlands

Fantasmagoria is inspired by the playing of Annabelle Cazes (Glockabelle). The glockenspiel is played with metal thimbles, a technique invented by Glockabelle. This piece is part of a compilation of Paredes’ electroacoustic duets and trios called Electroacústica Dinámica. 

Recorded on February 25, 2015.

"Bad Grrrlz* do it well" - From old scool to out of scool -  femisisms have always been a part of Hip Hop. Queen Latifah stated already in 1989 "The ladies will kick it, the rhyme that is wicked. Those that don't know how to be pros get evicted. A woman can bear you, break you, take you."(Ladies First) 
Salt N Pepa followed with "Ain't Nuthin' But A She Thing" in 1995: "The thing that makes me mad and crazy, upset. Got to break my neck just to get my respect. Go to work and get paid less than a man. When I'm doin' the same damn thing that he can. When I'm aggressive then I'm a bitch. When I got attitude you call me a witch. Treat me like a sex-object (That ain't smooth). Underestimate the mind, oh yeah, you're a fool. Weaker sex, yeah, right, that's the joke (ha!)"

This Set is a selection of my favourite feminist Hip Hop across the decades mixed with bouncy beats.
"This one comes from the heart." (Ms. Dynamite - "Miss")

Grrrlz* Time - Hip Hop Feminism

@maurau remix for @blackcracker´s album "Poster Boy". 

Maurau Remix- Midnight (Black Cracker)

There is something spesh going on musically along the Berlin / Montreal / Warsaw axes these days, and this tape is your one way ticket to never going back to unknowingness. Consisting of 11 heretofore unreleased tracks from the M&M stable and beyond, Mixtape 1 serves to document a scene which spans significant geographic distance all the while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic sensibility. 

Magic Island’s “Ostsee” opens the proceedings, and it finds dream pop inhabitant Emma C sounding more confident than ever, not only in songwriting but also in production. Same goes for Antoine93, whose pop star ambitions haven’t been dulled by his time spent basking in the glory of being one of Berlin’s new star club kids. If anything, he has emerged from the haze of all those late nights with a pop sensibility that is tuned to perfection. 

Pascale Project delivers a spaced out track which brings to mind a simpler time in electronic music and Bataille Solaire shores up the Quebecois contributions to the tape with a track that will satisfy the heads who like their tuneage knotty and complex. 

Dylan III is sorely missed around Neukölln, so his contribution here, a skewed take on 80s AM gold replete with flamenco guitar and emotive vocals is very a welcome reminder of his immense talent and charisma. While we’re talking sorely missed, how about Jason Harvey? No two ways about this guy is a beauty, and his track, though objectively “weird” is, in its own way, perfect. Just like him. 

Jack Chosef, Normal Echo and Helen Fry weigh in with punchier, harder takes on their respective brands of outsider electronics, while scene linchpin Sean Nicholas Savage teams up with his Polish partner in crime (and current touring guitarist), Better Person, for a smooth as cover of Chris Isaak’s “Can’t Do A Thing (To Stop Me). 

One of the most pleasant surprises on the mix comes from Karolini. After years spent fine tuning his coffee making skills, then his cooking skills, then his joke telling skills, Karolini finally found time to produce some music, and, by gosh, it was worth the wait. “Twice As Much” is a timeless piece of songwriting, as instantly memorable as it is distinct from the other tracks on offer here. 

Finally, Warsaw based Olivier Helm and Pictorial Candi collaborate on Ballroom, a digital only bonus track that, like a jellyfish from the depths of the Vistula, is so smooth it hurts. 

All told, what we’ve got here is a beau-tay of comp, an immensely pleasing snapshot of a scene operating at its own pace and in its own world. There's no going back now.

The Musicboard Berlin GmbH is the only institution of its kind nationwide with the aim to fund pop music in new and creative ways, and maintain a dynamic discourse on pop music in Berlin. The Musicboard counts on the innovative power of the music and creative industry. The Musicboard provides a new and courageous form of pop music funding.

The Musicboard is also responsible for the Pop-Kultur Festival, which takes place this year from August 15th-17th 2018 for the fourth time. Because our guests and everyone else involved loved the Kulturbrauerei so much last year, we’re excited to announce that we’ll be able to call it home once again this coming summer during the festival.
