A revisit of Rita Abadzi - Gazeli Neva Sabah (Hour of Death).

The eire and mystifying vocals of this 1929 Greek folksong have haunted me for years.   After much contemplation and experimentation this song was born.  I hope you all enjoy!!!!

Look for more to come from 

Αμάν
Πρέπει νά σκέφτεται κανείς την ώρα του θανάτου
ότι θα μπεί στη μαύρη γής καί σβήνει τ’όνομά του.

Aman
A person must give some thought to the hour of his death;
when he will go down into the black earth
and his name will be erased.

Have you ever heard of a city called Squamish? That was the background necessary to the Canadian Nathan Hall (@nathanhall-1) to strike an appropriate balance for his creative journey. His debut EP has gradually been taking shape under the nexus between artist-locus. Nathan is an experimental sounds rock climber, avid traveler and outdoor enthusiast and in a work, that is part-memoir, part-discover, part-tribute he certainly did not skimp on the effort to tell us that our home is wherever we are. 

Squamish means "mother of the wind" in the Squamish’s native language. The meaning strongly relates on this three-track-EP’s concept. Its melodies slowly stretch and fold like clouds in the sky. It is windy, thick and, if so, mildly warm. An intimate glimpse into lofty and rugged grooves just as Squamish is. Nathan’s friend, the talented Lan Yao kindly provided the artwork. Her fine-tuned traces navigates along an underlined tie. The permeable boundary between light and darkness. Do you want to go there? For more info, check the credits. 

This EP is intentionally modest. However, we can note with enjoyment that it is sure to be quite a magical surprise. He will guide you in a small escape from thoughts, a heavily effected one-off adventure.

Uji spins a hypnotic spell of sounds on debut solo release; “Alborada”.

“Alborada” pays homage to the moment where the darkness and the mysteries of night transform into new possibilities with the first light of daybreak. Electronic production and alchemy never felt so close; creating an overall infectious enchantment that feels ancient at its core while exuding a variety of tasteful sounds from today. 

Uji (Luis Maurette) is a nomadic electronic producer and multi-instrumentalist born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and raised throughout Latin America. Half of the pioneering duo “Lulacruza” since its inception in 2005, with whom he has released 5 albums, a feature film and multiple world tours. His music is dance floor bound: rooted in various indigenous traditions while borrowing from the aesthetics and sound design of electronic music. With his new solo project he has already toured extensively around Europe, the US and Latin America even before his debut album has yet to drop.  

Reflecting his experiences in both the Latin American and Afro-Latin diasporas, Uji´s enchantment seems to suspend time, encompassing the present while drawing from primal essences ingrained in our collective unconscious, enrapturing us in the ritual of dance. On tracks like “La Descarriá” featuring Corina Lawrence and Miss Bolivia, Uji skillfully crafts scenes from the high plains of Bolivia in their yearly carnaval celebrations paired with a Tarantino-styled guitar riff. Or we find ourselves transported to Colombia’s tropical “pueblos” (villages) dancing into the sweaty night on his remix of Petrona Martinez’s “La Varita de Mariangola/Milagros”, to daybreak in a Berlin warehouse party with “Kiok” featuring Barrio Lindo. Nothing of Uji’s experimentation feels arbitrary, rather carefully woven into multi textured landscapes of sound, where a thought out process is palpable behind each risk.  

Most of the sounds we find in this album are field recordings done by Uji himself, compiling a vast sound bank over the years on his travels all over the globe, including a wide array of instruments from his collection such as; congas, cununo, marimba, balafon, charango, bombo leguero, sonajas, as well as analog drum machines, samplers, synthesizers and vocals. A multi layered assemblage with deep and rich textures from around the world. 

The album also features stellar vocalists, artists that have emerged onto the Latin American music scene such as Sof Tot, a long time collaborator of Uji and a part of the internationally acclaimed trio “Fémina”, and breakthrough artist “Anicca”, singer for the viral sensation “Perotá Chingo” who lends her commanding vocals to the title track “Alborada”. Uji also includes a remix for “Petrona Martinez”, a tribute to one of Colombia’s most prestigious singers and artists, an incredible influence on his music and a Latin American folk landmark.

Boundary-pushing composer and sound designer Andi Otto returns with his new album ‘Rwandance’, which sees live instruments, studio recordings and sampled archival material melded together as part of an electrifying reimagining of the musical traditions of Rwanda.

‘Rwandance’ is a collaboration between Rwandan dancer and musician Evariste Karinganire and cello player and electronic music producer Andi Otto, brought together by a chance connection. Inspired by Steve Reich, Mark Pritchard’s Harmonic 313 and Otto’s mesmerising musical experiences touring India, Otto built software to translate the intensity of Karinganire’s hand claps into different synth notes - the structure and time signature of traditional Rwandan music providing the framework for Otto’s creations, new instruments and sounds incorporated into its parameters. 

Otto follows a path similar to many producers from Latin America’s burgeoning electronic music scene but instead of using Andean folk music as a starting point, he reappraises Rwandan music mirroring traditional sounds but similarly, reimagined through a contemporary lens. ‘Rwandance’ follows Otto’s 2016 link-up with Indian singer and actress M.D. Pallavi and underground hit ‘Bangalore Whispers’, a showcase for his original approach to cross-cultural musical dialogue. He has since cemented that reputation with subsequent albums “Via” and “Bow Wave”, weaving global sounds into his distinct sonic approach.

Shika Shika is a home for music that combines organic and electronic sounds, a meeting place between the past and the future. (They also put an emphasis on supporting artists, splitting profits in their favour.) This chimes exactly with what Otto wanted to achieve in his collaboration with Karinganire, taking deeply-rooted traditions and giving them a new sonic make-up.

Gato Preto was made, along with others, in a moment of inspiration and as an expression to what mandruvá is feeling with the political and social context of his country (Brazil), which is getting more difficult.

The name "Gato Preto" (black cat) symbolizes some sounds that he put on the track and mock the "bad luck" that they bring, where he despises this statement, thus being a darker sound, as a way to "haunt" those who think so...


mandruvá is one of the two minds that make up the multicultural project Pérola Branca (@perolabranca).

Ogun or Ogoun is a god that appears in several African religions. He is a warrior and a powerful spirit of metal work, as well as of rum and rum-making. He is also known as the 'god of Iron', and is present in Yoruba religion, Haitian Vodou, and West African Vodun. In Yoruba religion, Ogun is a primordial orisha who first appeared as a hunter named Tobe Ode. He is said to have been the first Orisha to descend to the realm of Ile Aiye ("Earth"), to find a suitable place for future human life. In some traditions, he is said to have cleared a path for the other gods to enter Earth, using a metal ax and with the assistance of a dog. To commemorate this, one of his praise names, or oriki, is Osin Imole or the "first of the primordial Orisha to come to Earth". He is the god of war and metals. CLAUDIO ARDITTI & GONZ CABRERA, FELIPE GRANDA and ÜNAM are paying their respects to Ogun with four amazing original and unreleased tracks. For the love of iron!
