✨🙌🔥✨

"Fascinated by all things ‘sound’ and ‘listening’, Nithin Shams stumbled across his passion for curating listening experiences. His artistic practice revolves around facilitating listening spaces that allow listeners to enter an open, empathetic and attentive state of mind. In his free time curates mixtapes and tries to make a living producing podcasts. Nithin is also a violinist, and is trying to build a practice around live improvisation with the violin, field recordings and electronics.

Nithin grew up in a multicultural environment in Sharjah, like many migrants from his home state Kerala (India). On moving back to India, he was faced with the conundrum of 'identity' - feeling like he always belong-ed 'else'-where and 'every'where. Listening paradoxically helps him ground his being in the space he finds himself in, while also allowing him to fly around in the dreamscapes of various musical traditions from across the world. This mixtape reflects his state of mind as he was transitioning from one home to the other. He dreams of being able to sustainably live his life curating listening spaces for people.

Nithin is currently engaged in an artistic-research project where he is recording the call of the Azan as it reverberates through the cities, towns and villages of India. These recordings will be used to create an archive, and also to compose a multi-channel sound installation. This project comes at a crucial moment where majoritarian political movements in his country are working hard to rewrite 'history', erase 'culture', and change what it means to be Muslim(s) in India.

OP 𓅛 mix 3 - Nikita Quasim

Many voices guide our paths,
weaving into our stories,
lighting the way forward,
traveling through time and space.

Tinge our dreams
ancestral world,
echoes whisper to us, 
secrets of the endless being.

Ancient Echoes

Originating from Sweden, Gidge are a duo who seek inspiration from a somewhat uncompromising environment. Cold, harsh winters leave little room for musical warmth and creativity, yet somehow the pair manage to maintain a depth and meaning to their sound which transcends far beyond their surroundings. 

The pair first met back in school at the age of 16. Rooted in the small city of Umeå Jonatan Nilsson and Ludvig Stolterman quickly became friends through a shared love of the abstract and electronic music. This would later materialise into them producing music together as the duo Gidge. This month saw the release of their second mini album on Atomnation, a record label not known for compromise or a sub standard release policy which has previously hosted music by the likes of Weval, Olaf Stuut and Sau Poler. 

We caught up with the pair on the back of the release of their latest work 'LNLNN' as they deliver a Monday mix for Ransom Note

OP 𓅛 mix 23 - Nicolas Jaar Presents the Network - Part 1 (Sept 7, 2016)

1. 
[they say:]

savior come down savior come down savior come down savior come down savior come down 

2. 
[they hum…]

3.

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. 

4. [instrumental]

5. [instrumental]

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.

10. [instrumental]

11. [instrumental]

12. 

[I hum]

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.
