This is another Greek favourite, embedded on my musical DNA. What a joy to be able to close our last Papa Loko party with this beauty and introduce it to an audience that would might have never get to hear it otherwise... Hope you enjoy :)

Original music by Manos Hadjidakis

Pasha Dume

Pasha Dume (Huni Kuin)

The call of the forces of rapé and other medicines and animals of the forest, intertwines with a sense of urgency.. how long can we continue to ignore nature’s call? What does it take to reclaim our role as collaborators, helpers and siblings of creation? The Earth cannot wait forever. Its force is strong and will eventually take over. It is up to us whether we will listen to its call and dance to its rhythms… or not.

Pasha Dume (Forces of Nature Mix) [Conscious Expansion]

"The resulting Quantum Mix is a cavalcade of sound which would surely send any club goer completely insane as the cacophony reaches near fever pitch. It’s an incredible sound, and one which manages to remain focussed without sounding like a complete mish mash of undecipherable noise. Apparently, the goal is to ‘continuously raise the internal frequencies of the listener’. Mission accomplished."
Louder Than War, UK

"Unfurling slowly this 'Quantum Mix' reaches the first of several climaxes: where the Amazonian voices sing the 'Cobra Coral' chorus, before sweeping cuts of strings and dreamy electronic sequences appear scooping up the massed choir voices as the beats get heightened and more rapid, and are joined once again by the evocative wafting flute before it all gets whipped up into a multi-layered mass of non-stop ecstatic exotic dancing."

A thoughtful new label project, Conscious Expansion offers new perspectives in the hope of opening minds. For its first release, owner and manager Othon reimagines the music of a modern-day medicine woman. The London-based DJ, producer and Papa Loko promoter now delivers a "transcendent and soul-expanding” rendition of Brazilian songwriter Josii Yakecan. Honoring divine femininity and the power of waterfalls, Othon’s “Mamãe Oxum” remix features bellowing beats, ominous instrumentation and expressive vox. All proceeds benefit Amazon Watch, a charitable organization that strives to "protect the rainforest and advance the rights of indigenous peoples in the Amazon Basin."

Premiere: Josii Yakecan - Mamae Oxum (Othon Remix) [Conscious Expansion]

Norma Panduro, Andrés Córdoba, Josii Yakecan - Othon AYA Remixes, Vol. 1

Best known for his cosmic DJ sets and his emotionally driven compositions, the frontman of London’s pioneering underground party ‘Papa Loko’ Othon announces his new record label ‘Conscious Expansion’ and the much anticipated first EP.

Focusing around the soul-expanding expressions of electronic and ambient music, Conscious Expansion launches with 3 remixes of shamanic songs from Colombia, Brazil and Peru, crafted by its founder. The rudimental field recordings of the original songs create strongly defined moods and a sense of authenticity that, together with Othon’s uncompromising treatment and experimentation, renders them timeless.

Whether through the interplay of Icaro Sagrado’s haunting chants and resonance-induced playfulness or Cura Sana’s spirit-driven vocals and relentless flutes that lead to a delirious crescendo and a cathartic climax, the EP pushes the envelops of form and sound design, allowing for both unpredictability and freshness.

All artist profits from this release will go towards Amazon Watch and Tama-Cona Foundation in Colombia.

Goran Bregovic - Ederlezi (Othon Edit)

There are some songs that unconsciously become part of one’s musical DNA.. songs that accompany one’s childhood. Ena Proino is one of them. I was a melancholy kid that loved melancholy music and this old Greek song from the ‘Girls in the Sun’ film, sung by Maria Dimitriadi and written by Stavros Xarnakos, always resonated with me.
