2002-2022, that’s 20 years of Pingipung! HHV Records from Berlin made an interview with me for a nice feature on their blog and asked me for a selection of Pingipung tracks as well. It was originally released on their Mixcloud page. It's a spontaneous collection of personal faves and by no means a definitive selection.

Heiko Gogolin: 20 Years of Pingipung for HHV Records

Mjia has finally opened her treasure box and shared some gems with us. We met her last year in Braille and became friends. She has now put together a mix for metamorphosen that will take listeners on a sonic journey through the world of Balkan music. 

"On the personal note, digging, listening and collecting the sound of the Balkan Peninsula has been my sanctuary for the past two years. A safe space where i re-explore my cultural identity and seek for a sense of home. I mainly focus on the ethno elements in the Balkan productions created within the past 34 years. As a first time curator this mix is an anthology of the tracks that has most tightly hugged my soul. It aims to showcase the multitude of cultures on the Balkans as a united whole. 

The beginning is foggy, disoriented and unclear as it departs from the heart of the region with a poem about love as a universal force. Reaching the most melancholic sights filled with the sounds of psychedelic ouds and guitars, it slowly arrives to a more vivid soundscape of a folky jazz. The tapan hits the road and the journey gets more intense. Riding high on hypnotic percussions and echoing chants it reaches the peak of the hill, where a female voice takes your breath away with words about longing and solitude." 

“When this world and the other one touch,
A new one is either born or dies,
From that touch, the living cry,
Sometimes from joy,
Other times from sorrow,
Always from love.”

Captain of None is premiering her first edition of the show, Wyred Waves ! 

Wyrd Waves w. Captain of None [10.09.25]

Garbicz Festival 2025 - Ambient Floor

Pingipung proudly introduces Iko Chérie, the experimental pop project of French multiinstrumentalist Marie Merlet. The 7'' single "Ghosted Ghosters of the Holy G" offers a first glimpse into her forthcoming LP, Soft Centre (Pingipung 093, 7th Nov 2025) — a hypnotic blend of dub-infused songwriting and blissful noise.On the flipside, French electro-dub visionaries Froid Dub unravel the track into a shadowy, slowmotion version, with a solid sub-bass, flickering delays and half-heard whispers.

Iko Chérie says about the single: “The melody and structure came to me in one go – I recorded a
draft on my phone at a party. It’s a playful take on ghosting karma, with ooh-oohs and a vocal line
inspired by the vibes of Lovers Rock.”

Trained in classical piano as a child, Marie Merlet shifted to teaching herself the guitar when she
discovered the DIY indie punk scene, she then studied jazz singing and electro acoustic
composition in Bordeaux before moving to London to play bass in Monade alongside Laetitia
Sadier (Stereolab).

With her solo project Iko Chérie, she crafts a surreal sound world of woozy incantations, Casio
drones, and reverb-drenched guitars, woven with processed spoken-word samples.
Beyond Iko Chérie, Marie Merlet tours globally with Gina Birch (The Raincoats) and is the
guitarist in psychedelic cumbia outfit Malphino. She also hosts a monthly Soho Radio show
championing women in music and curates a film & performance series at London’s Cinema
Museum.

New week, new mix – and this one’s a true beauty. As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, Ritas and Falks live recording delivers the perfect soundtrack for slowing down. Their set is gentle, spacious, and full of quiet detail – a mix that doesn’t rush, but carefully unfolds like a foggy morning walk.

Let it wrap around you like a soft blanket. It’s a story worth listening to – and one you might want to return to.

"A mesmerizing Middle Eastern vocal blends with rich Arabic instrumentation, taking you on a sonic journey through the desert. The melody flows like shifting sands, with deep, soulful tones and rhythmic beats that echo the heartbeat of the dunes. Featuring traditional instruments like the oud, qanun, and percussions, this track evokes the mystery, beauty, and timeless allure of the Arabian landscape. Let the music transport you to a world of endless horizons and hidden stories carried by the wind."
