Sunbeams Arise feat. Phia Sko

The song "Yiannis, Your Handkerchief" is perhaps the most emblematic folk song of the diaspora. With a handkerchief symbolically wiping sweat, blood, and dirt from the hard work done to survive abroad, "Yiannis" says he washed it in five rivers, but it was so stained that it didn't get clean, only dyed them. In the "desolate foreign lands," each Yiannis is usually a frightened outcast, hidden from social life in ghettos and his humble room. In this rendition, the band PAGAN also incorporated an original melody in a slow rhythm, where the bagpipe weeps for the lost years of the diaspora that won't come back, but can serve as a reminder to future generations that "where there is land and homeland," without humanity, solidarity, and understanding, does not exist.

A new chapter in the Oxycanta series of compilations by French Dj and arranger Mahiane featuring tracks by artists who are emerging at the forefront of the ambient scene as well as pathfinders in the genre. 

Throughout Oxycanta III the sound spectrum reaches wide arrays of deep bass all the way to the high-pitched resonances to display many of the DJ’s musical influences while, with a keen sense of float, she blends IDM, downtempo and neo-classical with a hint of atmospheric electronica, and a dash of dub. 
Driven by her passion for music and nature, Mahiane titled her collection Oxycanta as a tribute to Crataegus Oxyacantha, a species of Northern European Hawthorn dear to old time herbalists. 

Mind-bending story; an invitation to slow the pace and wonder…

Nothingness

Lauge - Nothingness (Longplay Mix)

Light and Darkness became one..
melodies found Mother Earth..
and Infinity was created..

The name ΠAGAN comes from the Latin word “paganus” (a person from the countryside). This is also the philosophy that underlies the identity of our music: a return to roots. Following the Industrial Revolution, which saw the emergence of technological rhythms, people became distanced from their instincts and their ancestral means of expression. The band’s mission is to mingle these two realms – the realm the primeval and the contemporary – by combining traditional musical instruments with the electric and the electronic sound. Dynamic rhythms, primeval voices, earthly and cosmic melodies: these are some of the elements of the ΠAGAN music.
