At The Dam

Mary Lattimore - The Quiet At Night

When Lali Puna released "Our Inventions" back in 2010, it was a long overdue return for the band; in fact, more than half a decade elapsed between the current LP and its predecessor. However, the Munich-based foursome now seems to want to make up for that, dropping this new EP in early 2012, at a point when "Our Inventions" is still lingering in the air. It's an afterburner of sorts, a remix addendum, an early continuation fittingly entitled "Silver Light".
Before singer Valerie Trebeljahr and her band mates officially hand over the original recordings, they set the tone with a beautifully rendered cover song: Lali Puna's take on Mort Garson's "I've Been Over The Rainbow", originally released on the LP "The Wozard Of Iz" (1968), a dark parody of the original "Wizard", sounds both forsaken and strangely welcoming as they venture deeper and deeper into the void that is to be found at the very core of this track. With this choice Lali Puna not only pay homage to the late-great moog master who died in 2008, but also present a song that works as a stunningly ruminative prelude to "Silver Light". 
It's obviously dark now, and the night is upon us: Cornelius' remix of "Hostile To Me" washes over the listener like a beautiful lullaby, it's soundscapes shimmering at sundown or night-fall, moments that do not sound hostile at all; instead, by combining multiple vocal parts Keigo Oyamada ultimately even manages to lift this track to almost ethereal heights – obviously something Lali Puna would never dare themselves. Since "Our Inventions" was heavily concerned with the downsides of progress, and posing questions about our constant need to stimulate growth, it's a logical step to present Trebeljahr's lyrics (such as "destroy this place") in this downshifted way. "Leave your signs on the wall", she sings, but these are signs that are no longer tangible; it's nothing but a last flicker in the darkness surrounding us. 
In Los Angeles it doesn't really get that dark; only in the hills, a place a certain Will Wiesenfeld aka Baths calls home. This Will not only has some amazing sideburns, but he's also the perfect guy to deliver a remix of a track like "Move On": Baths will always turn the original into something with a lot of oomph, even if it's just to get things moving in his hometown, the capital of heavy traffic and congestion. However, Baths and his whooshing, brainfeeding approach as a producer are not an unlikely choice for "Silver Light" – after all he's an artist hailing from the anticon. camp, and by now it's almost a tradition to collaborate with musicians from Munich or Weilheim. 
Finally, hailing from the same camp, there's Odd Nosdam, who just recently collaborated with Saroos: "Safe Tomorrow" done Nosdam style is another massive, broad expanse of sound; it's a new take with more internal pressure, even though ultimately, after more than six and a half minutes, he follows Trebeljahr's request to please "try to make it home by night". And it's true: Nighttime is certainly the best time of day to enjoy the silvery glow of this EP.

Lali Puna : i ve been over the rainbow (coverversion)

Singer/musician/producer Aisha Chaouche is set to release debut album 'Safe', a deeply emotional document of heartbreaking and spine tingling hymns. Her delicate piano playing features prominently and is bolstered by balanced production of her own massed vocals, programmed drums, sub-bass, cello, violin and an obsession with reverb and delay.

Chaouche follows her debut album 'Safe' with ‘Progression’. Developed from an initial musical concept; melodies, structures and sounds bloom, exchange and reprise roles across the tracks, the EP evolving into a suite of four parts - the vocal tracks (‘Progression’, ‘Resolution’) balanced by instrumentals (‘It Will Come In Time’, ‘Epilogue’).

Chaouche - Resolution

The idea for this track originally came from the old spaghetti western soundtracks, but at some point I veered back into my beloved land of electronic.

Good things take time. Especially when it comes to timeless, downright intimate music. A maxim which holds true for the two singer-songwriters Roos Jonker and Dean Tippet from Amsterdam.Both have been making music together since 2009 – initially as members of «We’ll Make It Right», the six-piece supergroup around Benny Sings, but as solo artists as well. Roos Jonker attracted already in 2010 quite some attention with her self produced debut album «Mmmmm». Her charming mix of modern jazz, folk and carefree poppy vocals went down well with the public as much as with critics around the globe.
After a Japan tour in 2011 with «We’ll Make It Right» Jonker and Tippet decided to record together a duet album and started to cut some early tracks already in 2012, but soon were distracted by circumstances of life, kids, matters of love and books. Only six years later, when producer Eelco Topper (aka Felbm aka Falco Benz) joined in, the album «Roos Jonker & Dean Tippet» slowly but surely took shape and will now be released by Sonar Kollektiv at the end of June.
To find out which way the wind, or rather the sweet and mellow spring breeze, is blowing you have to listen to the upfront single «This One»: Two tantalising voices meet absolutely genuinely fusing instantly into a melodic oneness of unparalleled inti- macy and simultaneous intensity. Experiencing this sovereign leisureliness coupled with enormous ease one could be fooled into thinking Elis Regina and Antonio Carlos Jobim have resur- rected. The love song has only little elements of Bossa Nova in it though, much more must it be labelled «bed room lullaby pop» with lots of hum along potential. Almost a wistful pretaste for the forthcoming album full of timeless pop music classics.

This mix was made for la Capsule de Sophie, where you can enjoy a beautiful time of relaxation and well being after an intense surf session. It's a collage rather than a mix with some poems from California and small surprises along the way. Take a deep breath and enjoy.

The story of how Transatlantyk came to be is, in many ways, one typical of our times. We've grown accustomed to being isolated, even stranded, in recent months, and Technology has become our means of overcoming these aspects of quarantine.

For Lübeck-based producer David Hanke, a.k.a. Keno, and Los Angeles-based musician Tristan de Liège, their intercontinental relationship began long before the days of lockdowns and social distancing. The pair 'met' on-line through mutual friends back in 2018 and quickly realised they were, in a musical sense, kindred spirits. Their shared tastes meant that what started out as a single track quickly morphed into an EP, and finally the full length album that you're enjoying right now.

Tristan's experience as a neo-classical musician was the ideal foil for Hanke's skills with a sample and production expertise. Both shared a love of the more lush and cinematic end of instrumental Hip-Hop and Downtempo music. This sound partnership is evident throughout the album, but particularly on tracks like Nkosi, and the title track, where luscious string sections dance playfully with fractured, programmed beats; or the melancholic opener, Kouyou, where more laid back drums underpin muted horns and joyous harps.

The pair's perfectly formed fusion isn't the end of the story though, as French chanteuse Elodie Rama is on hand to provide not only some impeccable vocals, but also irresistible melodies to this already mellifluous long-player. Speak The Language sees this brilliant vocalist drift seamlessly between euphonious song and spoken word whilst delivering one of the ariose moments of the whole album. Elsewhere, on Dancing In The Dark, Elodie gives a slightly more sombre performance, combining with lavish strings and driving rhythms to a tee; and on To Find A Way offers up an even more emotional and almost heart-breaking performance, aided by wistful and forlorn instrumentation.

Transatlantyk is a body of work from an amalgamation of rare talents who combine beautifully to take us through myriad emotions; from the urgent and compelling Off The Mark via the pensive Forever We Were, and finally find their Way Across thanks to a shared love of graceful and refined musicality and a good song.

To this day the three have never actually met in person, but here's a last hopeful thought that one day soon, as we emerge out of the darkness, they can finally join together in a physical, as well as a musical, embrace.
