A one-hour selection by @nicolas-jaar aired first on May 15th, 2021 as part of the Sonic Liberation Front on @radioalhara, an initiative for Palestine by a group of audio platforms and sound artists who came together to unify their sound for Palestine and protest against the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.

"Hello,
 
Thank you for inviting me to be here today. 

These are difficult days and it is difficult to express the feelings that I have inside. 

We have seen the horrors of Israeli occupation. We have seen the hypocrisy of the European and American media. We have heard the silence of our peers. And we have felt the screams inside Al Aqsa, in Sheikh Jarrah, in Gaza, in Haifa, in Jaffa, in Lydda. But this is only news to those who don't know. 
In reality, this is nothing new. 

The past 2 weeks have been a microcosm for the past 20 years, the past 40 years years, the past 70 years. 

The Israeli government is a racist settler colonial project committed to the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. The legacies of systemic violence, racism and dispossession shaped by colonialism must stop. 

Today this means standing up and signaling clearly our support, our solidarity and our love for Palestine. Complicity with Israeli war crimes is found in silence and we cannot tolerate silence. 

As I speak something else is happening in another part of the world that is also very close to my heart. Chileans are right now electing  155 citizens who will write a new constitution for the country. It will replace the constitution that has been in place since the years of the military dictatorship. This constitution will be the first anywhere in the world to be written by an equal number of men and women. The only reason this moment of hope is possible in Chile is because of the incredible social movements that rose up to tell truth to power, to tell the story of life in the face of death. 
The courage and determination of Chilean activists, writers, artists has been astounding. I am sure many of them are inspired and influenced by the courage of Palestinians living under occupation. 

These social movements are creating change, and the forces of Empire are having a difficult time trying to control this change. When we see Israel bombing the tower that houses AP and Al Jazeera in Gaza, we understand that this war is being waged on multiple fronts. Journalism is one of them. Art and music is also one. 

So thank you for this initiative Radio Alhara and Recordat. 

This mix is different from any mix I've ever played. 

I'm gonna play a mix I made for myself, never meant to be shared. It's the music I play to feel better, in some ways it's my own kind of therapy, it gives me hope that life can always shine in the dark."

En las cenizas 
Vamos a armar 
No saber nada 
Es mejor

Ya no cabe nada 
Pero estamos juntos 
Sin noticias 
Del otro mundo 

Y cada día
Nuestro mundo
Se achica 
O se derrumba 

Y lo único que 
Me han dicho sobre el tema
Es que es el sentido común de una flecha

Y lo único que 
Me han dicho 
Es que es el sentido común de una flecha 

Y porque no responde
El sentido común 
No puedo utilizar su lenguaje 

Su lenguaje 

(TRANSLATION)= =

In the ashes,
we will form
knowing nothing now is better

there’s no space for anything
but we are together
without news of another world

and everyday,
our world, 
shrinks
or crumbles.

and the only thing they have said about any of this: 
is that it’s ‘the common sense of an arrow’. 

the only thing they have said about any of this: 
is that it’s ‘the common sense of an arrow’. 

but why doesn’t common sense respond?
I can no longer use its language.

6. mud

come in, 
don’t leave.

grown man:
can’t see.

figures out 
he can’t be
sunken with the crown

old man
i can’t see
you’re in the way
i can’t see me,

we must confess:

illusions number time

…

a drunk man’s on the lead
skies and all bleed
and no one can hear
the cry from the ground

it’s something to dig

there’s something in the mud
there’s something in the mud
there’s something in the mud

7. [instrumental]

8. sunder

Vapor’s forming,

And now I see right behind my eyes.

If the old you could tell me 
if the old you could tell me:

a win is a win 
but a loss is the death of a twin and we borrow

And we borrow.

Forming vapors,

behind my eyes,

And now I see right behind my eyes.


In the words of a prophet 
Sunder,
In the shape of the first and last
Sunder,
In the springs of the church of sin
Sunder,
In the blood of the hands that last,
Sunder,


Does a lock seek erosion?
Does a loss seek revenge of sin?

Right behind my eye,


We borrowed from the page of saint maurice
Named the mountain an egyptian saint
Drank the water from the church of springs
Does a loss seek revenge of sin?

Right behind my eye,

Is there blood in the court? 
Is there blood in the ceiling?
do we need to be still? 
Do we need your dominion?

Is there blood in the court? 
Is there blood in the ceiling?
do we need to be still? 
do we need to be still? 

Is there blood in the court? 
Is there blood in the ceiling?
do we need to be still? 
Do we need your dominion? 

9. hello, chain

won't you change, nature?
along me?
carry on your chain,
hell of chain.

we will now wait,
patience is our virtue,
NOW JUST WAIT.

13. 

carried by a force until a certain peak
there, all you could see,
is swayed by the wind
like the locks in your hair
coloring your eyes
that look nowhere

like a faith made of silk

look around not ahead

a peak is just the way towards 
a descent

look around not ahead

(you have nowhere to look)

look around not ahead

a peak is just the way towards 
a descent

the forces on the hill
manifested by what you perceive as wind

look around not ahead.
