Booma Mixtape #16 by Valentin Stip

The ICE LP was created by Maxim Wolzyn over a period of three years, mostly whilst touring throughout Germany by train as part of the Günther Lause duo. Spread over eight tracks, the LP poetically captures the complex networks of railways and tunnel systems that carry with them the thoughts and feelings of millions of people, aspiring to attain an overall impression of the collective consciousness of a society on the move. 

Inspired sonically by the soundscapes of urban spaces, rail stations and the pulsing motions of modern mass transportation, various field recordings are mixed with reverberating synthesizer patterns and percussive composition, creating a mixture of straight forward techno and dystopian ambiences. 

While being reminiscent of Berlin's dub techno tradition it also transcends the typical club context, moving into the realm of the intimate and personal.

A collector by nature, Isabel began experimenting what DJing could be like in 2019, focusing in collecting hidden and forgotten sounds recorded in cassettes over time. It’s in this field that she asserts herself as Son Objet, where her approach to Djing goes from the selection of bizarre and cosmic sonorities from the diy cassette culture movement, combining them with less conventional current compositions. Her main resources are cuts and loops that are infinitely juxtaposed throughout the set to transition and build the narrative thread that wanders between introspection and dance. Along this electronic route, paths focused on psychedelia are outlined, also highlighting spoken words and sound collage.

"I wanted it groovie and emotional. Tracks that would either feel like nostalgia or happiness to me. I think now we decide."

The track "Small Car" by chöko aba & M.RUX traces its origins back to the original song of the same name by Marvin Pontiac, the alter ego of John Lurie, featured on the 1999 album The Legendary Marvin Pontiac, Greatest Hits. This album stands out for its fresh, humorous, and charismatic storytelling, seamlessly blending jazz, blues, minimal jazz, funk, and world music, all enhanced by hypnotic, repetitive elements.
Initially, chöko aba began working on a short version of "Small Car" on his own. When M.RUX heard this early sketch, he instantly fell in love with it and asked for a copy. Sensing the potential for something more expansive, chöko  invited M.RUX to collaborate on the project, and together, they set out to create a more extensive version.
What began as a simple edit evolved into a creative reinterpretation. Perhaps inspired by the playful and enigmatic spirit of Marvin Pontiac, or driven by the technical challenges of reworking the original, the duo took the track in a new direction. The final piece features Morgan Freeman as a somewhat unreliable AI speech generator, narrating the whimsical tale of small farmers venturing out to explore the world in their makeshift tin-can cars.
chöko aba & M.RUX filled this world with their distinctive blend of Dub, DownTempo, and obscure sounds, while retaining the original's quirky genius and the chants of the small farmers. The result is an imaginative departure from the source material, yet it remains true to the spirit of Marvin Pontiac.

Optimo Music is delighted to release a first album by Fantastic Twins (formerly known as The Twins). We’ll let them tell you the story behind this inspired and beguiling record - 

Obakodomo (Au Balcon Du Monde) is a soundtrack I created for a piece of contemporary dance, performed by two dancers for a young audience from the age of 4. It is the story of an imaginary journey in Antartica where two explorers go on an adventure. They encounter a colony of penguins and will progressively learn to understand their habits and respect their environment. Essentially, Au Balcon Du Monde is a metaphor of how to exist next to each other, how to share a territory, how to learn to live together and share resources. 

The scenography and stage accessories were designed in a minimalistic and non-obvious form to leave all the space for imagination. The penguins were made of translucent material to provide light effects and were programmed to move in a swaying motion, allowing interaction with the dancers and the music. LED system could be wireless piloted. 

With the soundtrack, I wanted to create an atmosphere that would immediately transport the children into this terra nova - a poetical space, like a cold sphere, where the strange meets the frightening and the playful. Translating the immense vs the small, the far-off vs the near, the collective vs the individual, the strange vs the familiar or the cold vs the heat. My intention was to follow the thread of the story in a narrative, yet non-caricatural way. Music for children doesn’t have to be “childish”. Children love to be scared or even just challenged. They love to love and react instantly to what they hear through their emotions. Ultimately, the soundtrack aims to provide different levels of “reading” so that it becomes something more universal. So we, adults, just have to accept the invitation.

Sónar Premiere: Chloé Feat Ben Shemie - Recall (Moiré Remix)

Akimbo, founder of Seoul-based label Tonal Unity, lives by Multi Culti ideals, a man brave enough to seek adventure, understanding and love outside his native land. This mix takes us on a journey to his adopted home. Let his description and the sounds take you away:

"Spirits of the Korean Han (恨)"

The character at the end is hanja for the term "Han", here inserted for clarity, as the Korean character referring to the same concept (한) has multiple meanings. 

Han is a concept that has no English equivalent. It runs through the Korean traditional arts, and the soul of the Korean nation as a whole. An oversimplification of this concept would be "the blues", but as it is quite complex, I won't attempt to fully explain it here. Han connects deeply with Korean character, which is one of resilience and intensity. Their traditional music reaches heights of beauty, sorrow, and fury. It is defiant, spiritual, spine-tingling, and trance-inducing stuff. 

Modern Korea is a place of juxtaposition. Ancient temples are tucked in between skyscrapers. Teens and tourists ride the waves of Hallyu trends while shamans lead extreme weeklong rituals in the mountains. Club kids in Seoul dance all night to banging techno (no drugs btw), while groups of itinerant performers travel the countryside in the spirit of the namsadang, much unchanged for hundreds of years. 

This mix is meant to be an introduction to Korean sounds, while also attempting to connect them in context with other East Asian tribal traditions and ritualistic electronics.

The Korean names have been romanized for this tracklist, but it can often be difficult to find the music by searching in English. For the original Korean text, let me know in the comments.

I hope you enjoy the travel :)

PREMIERE | DJ Athome - Taksim Cruising Walk [Serenades] 2019

We welcome back Spanish producer Señora for a double gatefold album entitled ‘Fósil’ that showcases his unique take on hypnotic rhythm, found sounds and sampling. Señora became a firm favourite with the likes of Andrew Weatherall (R.I.P.) and Sean Johnston for his rugged grooves and innovative approach to production, melding the sounds of machines, animals, electricity and other weird noises in a flurry of FX and sonic experimentation. He debuted on this label in 2017 and has also landed on Shango Records, Night Noise and LNDKHN since then. Now based in Berlin and a regular at clubs and festivals round Europe he offers up a debut album that features nine stunning pieces that aim to reflect on the next evolutionary steps of the human race. This is a hugely atmospheric album of perfectly realised interplanetary sounds, the whole thing taking you on a cerebral and evocative journey far away from here.
