Okokon - Fruit Bat

2002-2022, that’s 20 years of Pingipung! HHV Records from Berlin made an interview with me for a nice feature on their blog and asked me for a selection of Pingipung tracks as well. It was originally released on their Mixcloud page. It's a spontaneous collection of personal faves and by no means a definitive selection.

Joaquin Cornejo - Live mix from Refuge Worldwide

'The White Tezcatlipoca' Is an immersive sound healing journey designed to guide participants towards the exploration of their unconscious energy and establish a harmonious relationship with their personal darkness.

Performed at Monopol Berlin and Sunu Festival 
Berlin 2023

This journey serves as a reminder that our shadows are not adversaries but companions in our life's journey. It gradually leads us onto the illuminated path of Quetzalcoatl, where wisdom is cultivated, and the spirit is awakened.
Mitotili Sound Ritual

“Bridging Mexican Ancestral Wisdom and Healing Practices: Mitotili, derived from the Mexican Nahuatl Huichol term meaning sacred ritual and ceremony, is a transformative project by Cristina Bucardo that aims to connect ancient Mexican wisdom with modern healing practices.

It serves as a secure space where individuals can establish meaningful connections while integrating traditional Mexica energetic work with a contemporary expression of Prehispanic music.

Hell! 
Who's supposed to understand that? And maintain a flow or workflow with all this science? 
Never mind! 
The best thing is to press buttons and see what happens. 
Understanding - what's that supposed to be :)
This track is a kind of sketch, which contains exactly that: 
somehow and something, the main thing is that it pulsates and in the best case it lives in its imperfect way!
thanks for listening :)

SR07 - Cara Non Strizzare Il Mio Cazzo (92 BPM)

Please welcome ROESSLER & KRATZER to our label!

ROESSLER & KRATZER craft music that thrives on contrasts: radiant, hook-driven melodies meet tropic-dystopian rhythms, all wrapped in a warm, time-bending soundscape. Their compositions balance minimalism with nuance, embracing a delicate roughness that opens space for dialogue, tension, and unexpected harmony. The result is instrumental music without words or vocals, yet deeply expressive—marked by the striking interplay of beats and melodies.

In HELOLOLO an endless balafon melody is propelled forward by trance-like rhythms and carried to distant shores by the drive of electric organ tones. The track unfolds as a formal experiment of abbreviation and detour—a playful exploration of minimalist expectations and delicate disruptions.
