Catalog no: BI32

In an unusual collaboration between a Brazilian artist and a Chinese label, Numa Gama returns with a left-field take on her music-making, A Spectral Turn. Inspired by Derrida’s Hauntology, and the post-capitalist instigations of Anna Tsing, she weaves an eerie and cold subtropical soundscape that explores themes of freedom and imagination amidst the ghosts that inhabit today’s world.

Each track here unfolds like a vignette, as translucent synth lines float independently, accompanied by abstract sounds and glitches. This amalgamation creates a rational yet cozy stream of consciousness, guiding the listener through the haunted corridors of the memories of the past, ideas of the present, and miscarriages of the future. To summon these ideas, Numa Gama draws a parallel between negotiating political change and making kin with her own creative desires.

Rather than providing nostalgic sensations or futuristic insights, A Spectral Turn acknowledges that history ends at every moment, and gives way to new beginnings, swarming with ghosts.

A 5.5 hours live DJ set, traveling through Africa and its diaspora, with Amapiano, Afrobeats, R&B, Future Beats, Jazz, Soul, instrumental hip hop, mellow afro-house, and so much more.

Shout out Juls Baby, Joe Kay and Soulection, Manalang, S!rene, Flwr Chyld, Jarreau Vandal, Full crate, Cutso and November Rose - You guys inspire the way I play and what I play. 

This set was part of "The sofa sessions", where the DJ sits on the big sofa at the center of the restaurant - this was so much fun, and an opportunity to be closer to my audience.

I used to change songs every 4-5 minutes, but even in this chillout session, I still change songs every 3 minutes or so, which means there are over 120 wonderful songs in this journey.

The venue is Bambu Hut, which is a picturesque resort with simple bungalows in the jungle, on the rocks between two breath-taking white-sand tropical beaches. We took the boat to get there through not-small waves and arrived safely due to the skilled Burmese skippers.

Thank you Stevie Keys for having me, and Elena my beloved for your support.

Played live on March 4th 2024, at Bambu Hut, Haad Yuan, Koh PhaNgan, Thailand.
