Oliver Coates - Another Fantasy (Bryce Hackford)

Cornelia (@Corneliat) has been a music lover/digger for many years but has only recently ventured into the world of radio and curating mixes. She has an eclectic taste & is drawn to ambient, experimental, folk & everything in-between. She has a bi monthly show on root radio and is one half of a duo who occasionally offers ambient meditation workshops at Refuge Worldwide.

Her mix for Metamorphosen is slow paced & dynamic, put together for deep listening, to take the listener through a dreamy & hypnotic void. The second part evolving into a psychedelic obscure sphere giving momentum to further create an unfolding story. It can be listened to for movement, when wandering, observing, sitting & resting.

Track-list:

Pauline Oliveros - a love song
Tara Clerkin, Sunny Joe Paradisos - castlefields

Falling

Out Now! http://bit.ly/1PYEm7M; iTunes http://apple.co/1JceTlK

From the album "Songs of Paapieye"—Out Now on Awesome Tapes From Africa.

Guun—This is the last song played at a funeral, after all the others have been done. It is meant to get all the dancers on their feet and into a dancing mood. The focus is on women and how they run around the gyil players and off into the surrounding area. It is the hottest, most intense part for the performance, where the player is expressing himself as a xylophonist. Guun is rapid-fire music, and it signals the end of the performance for that particular player. Other players will come and perform as well, from the beginning. And the more people dance, the more the deceased will rest happily.

Où cela commence-t-il ?
Where does cultural appropriation end and procreational fusion begin?
The answer to that depends on the perceiver.

For some, applying the structures of electronic music to folkloristic samples may seem de-contextualizing. Yet when considering the similarity between dancefloor compositions and the minimalism of Steve Reich and Terry Riley, the gap to traditional music begins to fade away. They remain distinct mostly by aesthetic characteristics of sound.

Nicolas Sheikholeslami’s premiere solo record as Çaykh is named after the French conjunction "Où" - meaning “where” - as this was the linking element during production. We witness an attempt to re-contextualize music that travelled from analog tapes - recorded in different localities along the Indian Ocean - to a hard-drive via 192kb youtube rips. The sample-based compositions were digitally arranged before regaining their warm sonic qualities in a vintage mixing studio.

This EP assembles three metamorphic 4th-world disco pulsations. Expect some heavily trancy and polyrhythmic analogue-fi jams.

Nicolas Sheikholeslami aka Çaykh is a Hamburg-born and Berlin-based DJ and producer. He is active as drummer & percussionist for the projects Spiritczualic Enhancement Center and Circuit Diagram.

Çaykh’s three earlier sound-collage cassette releases have already earned him a certain fame in the 4th-world and outsider-disco realms. His collection of pre-war Somali music called “Au revoir, Mogadishu“ paved the way for the Grammy-nominated “Sweet as Broken Dates“ compilation, which he co-curated.
