Om Unit - SWU FM - December 2021 (All Vinyl Dubwise Special)

- Sélection 100% vinyl 100% ZamZam / Khaliphonic - 

Si un label sait faire preuve de consistance sans aucun compromis c'est bel et bien ZamZam sounds. De la production à la sérigraphie, rien ne leur échappe et les plus grands noms de la scène mondiale sont passé par leurs établissement : Gregory Isaac, Alpha & Omega, Ishan Sound, RSD, Badawi, Macka B, Al Wootton, Junior Dread, El Mahdy Jr, Big Youth, Brendon Moeller, Johnny Clarke...
Quality !

Depuis 2012, des sorties strictement vinyls en tirage limité, avec des galettes pressés aux petits oignons, du design à la presse, des pochettes sérigraphiées à la main via Polygon Press gérées par Tracy. Au-delà de ZamZam, ils dirigent également le label Khaliphonic qui explore des sonorités mondiales passées à la moulinette Dub comme Los Gaiteros De San Jacinto et leur cumbia ancestrale, l'ambient avec Sam Binga & Welfare et plus encore. Acteurs incontournable, ils font partie de cette grande famille qui inonde les ondes aux côtés de Bristol avec Dubkasm et Gorgon Sound, depuis Tokyo chez Disc Shop Zero ou Undefined, en France avec Von D et OBF.
C'est à Portland, Oregon que le QG et l'esprit de ce label est ancré. Issu du défunt label BSI (Bucolic Sound Investigations) tenu par Ezra aka E3 qui perpetue cet engagement au service du dub et de ses valeurs avec des artistes cultes tel Muslimgauze, King Jammy, Jah Warrior, Henry & Louis, The Rootsman...Le label s'éteint au milieu des années 2000 et c'est en 2012 il y a maintenant 10 ans que ZamZam est crée par Ezra et Tracy. Depuis, ce label est devenu incontournable, pourrait-on dire même crucial. En 2018, c'est au Telerama Dub Festival de Paris qu'ils se sont produits pour une dance accompagné du Sinaï Sound System. Les présent-e-s s'en rappellent encore !

Le label fêtera 10 ans d'activisme le 30 Juin au Outlook Festival avec un line-up incendiaire : 
Adam Prescott, Al Wootton, Dubkasm, J.Sparrow B2B J:Kenzo, Marcus Anbessa, Maria, Om Unit, Rider shafique, Sun of Selah et bien sûr ZamZam Sounds themselves E3 & TR.

Voici donc un petit mix non-exhaustif de quelques pépites de ma collection. 
Sounds from the well !

Fracture & Sam Binga present: Omura Mix

BUY THE LP >>> https://sq.lnk.to/APHALP004DD_

As part of the process of exploring our relationship with this project, we put together a mix built around some own the concepts and inspirations behind Omura. Tunes that inspired us, in their original form, or reworked and reinterpreted to better reflect the way we channelled each other’s idea through the creative ecosystem that grew out of the album. 

The ecosystem represents a realm of pure creativity where ideas exist, on their own terms. They are there for anyone to discover but to do so, we need to step out of our usual patterns and spaces to find them. Omura was our guide to this realm and our guide once we had found it.

Divided into four sections, roughly corresponding to the different ecosystems Omura helped us to explore, the mix was initially performed live on the same mixing desk the album was built with in Hackney, before being bounced down and sent over to Bristol for further manipulation and processing. At each stage, further layers of texture and creative degradation was incorporated, mirroring the way we distorted and recontextualised each other’s musical ideas as we bounced files between our studios.

Pirate Mix 011: Om Unit

Straight out of Japan’s night scene, Takeaki Maruyama aka Goth-Trad is taking over this episode of Bass Music hosted by The Untouchables.

Goth-Trad has been composing dubstep since 2005 and has started a dubstep party series, Back to Hill, launched in Tokyo around the same time which led to his first international releases including a series of 12" EPs and later an album out on seminal UK dubstep label DEEP MEDi MUSIK.

He became a household name internationally and regularly played DJ sets and live acts around the world. In 2014, he launched his own label, Back To Chill and around 2016 he started to turn towards more experimental sounds again, both on his solo releases and with his new band Eartaker before he finally returned to releasing dubstep in 2021.
