Disruption is the approach that, above all, heralds change. The need for change is as imperative as ever, so we are called to disrupt: an expression that intervenes, a disturbance that demands attention, a rallying cry that cuts through the overbearing, disempowering white noise of oppression.

For SouqSounds, the sound of collective action is a mobilisation of sonic cultures, communal spirit and solidarity for the disenfranchised. Intricate percussive rhythms meet rumbles of bass from our inner core: إزعاج is a rally of heartbeats. Contributions from Kaval and DJ Double Oh! are all action, each amping up the drumwork into a galvanising rush. Ikävä Pii’s pulses are lithe and elastic, while Mandem motions a more introspective mood. Ovid embraces an exhilarating tension between keyboard melodies and string and woodwind samples, a counterweight to Loris’ bright, floating opener. Each track is a moment unto itself, demanding attention, cutting through noise.

Let the disruptors lay siege to the factories of apartheid until they are disarmed – until the only weapons we need are MP3s on USBs. Let the speakers sing of how we channelled kindness to transform realities. Let the dancefloors become demonstrations that deepen the cracks in the grounds of injustice, until they’ve ruptured entirely.

Proceeds from the compilation’s sales will be directed to Palestine Action and the earthquake appeal in Turkey, Syria and Kurdistan.

The first release from Markham Road comes in the form of a VA spined by frequent collaborators of its sister platform Infame Radio. The consequent nine tracks vary along a scale of percussive rhythms both relating to established and experimental ideas. As a trial in itself, this project took shape through exponential conversations between all those creatively involved. All tracks are written and mixed by each respective artist.

The committee “Justice pour Sourour” and the Pacifique Records music platform is launching a series of compilations to raise awareness on the fight against police violence and collect funds to ensure justice for Sourour: beloved sister, mother, daughter, and friend, who died in a police station in Brussels on January 12, 2023. For this first volume we’re bringing together friends and allies: artists of the experimental and bass music scene, each presenting a track.   The fight we’re waging is relentless, we need to keep everyone’s attention so that the struggle doesn’t lose momentum, so that even more people feel concerned and join us, and so that similar violence can never happen again. We want to believe in a united, supportive and politicised music scene. As artists, musicians and cultural actors, and with your support, we can play a precious role in this fight.

Thank you for Sourour and the Abouda family.

Originally meant to be a remix, this track was never released and the project file is lost like so many others, so it joins the forgotten archive. Suitable for the colder months of North Earth this time of year.

Chunky, aggressive, oddly forward thinking for where I was at musically at the time. Listening to this track makes me realise how this style was kind of a turning point for me and the sound I was trying to make.
