В 70-х годах прошлого века на африканском континенте сыскал невероятную популярность афробит – жанр, сочитающий в себе африканскую традиционную музыку, джаз и фанк. Позже, на волне интереса к регги, сукусу и другой африканской музыке, в России стали появляться афробит-коллективы, важной частью которой стали представители африканской диаспоры. Костя Экономов – основатель московской афробит группы Zava Matotra, художник и преподаватель МГХПА им. Строганова. С начала двухтысячных годов он принимает участие в жизни московской афробит-сцены и так или иначе столкнулся почти со всеми её участниками. Мы поговорили с Костей о работе с африканскими музыкантами, о жизни афробита на просторах столицы в течении последних двух десятков лет и о взаимном влиянии музыки Африки и Европы друг на друга.

Midday Moon is a survey of ambient and experimental music that emerged from Australia and New Zealand between 1980 and 1995. These recordings are sourced from a rich variety of micro-labels, private pressings, theatre soundtracks and artists’ personal archives.

Curated by Melbourne based DJ and archivalist, Sanpo Disco (a.k.a Rowan Mason), the collection delves deep into the world of outsider music that emerged in Australia and New Zealand in the latter half of the twentieth century, as synthesisers and early workstations began to enter the consumer marketplace.

'Midday Moon' out November 2 thru Bedroom Suck / Remote Control Records (AU/NZ), Omnian Music Group (USA/CAN) and Cargo Records (UK/EU).

Midday Moon 

Helen Ripley-Marshall - Under the Sun

Like many Canadians, Joseph Shabason and Ben Gunning like to untangle themselves from urbanity and disappear up north a few times a year. Unlike other cottage-goers, Ben and Joseph don’t while away the ur-time on jet-skis and lounge on docks reading pulpy mysteries. Instead, they bring a car full of synths, drum machines, saxophones, guitars, samplers, effects, and recording equipment to jam the days away in a cabin-fever inducing haze of wood smoke, cedar musk, hot wires and jazz sweat.

Muldrew, recorded on the northern Ontario lake by that name, is the culmination of several years of this collaborative tradition. Resisting their penchant for composition and arrangement, the duo embarked on this project with only an open framework that encouraged restraint. The result is a sparse and improvisational album, hung on enough structure for each song to evoke a distinct, albeit ambiguous mood. Space is paramount and even the most digital elements breathe with the resonance of the room and mingle with creaking floors. The resulting album is steeped in the placid stillness and northern ambience of a lake at dawn, and the emotive expanse of a forest at dusk. Imagine an ECM cottage-series, or Jon Hassell, Hiroshi Yoshimura, and John Martyn scoring a Bela Tarr film set in rural Canada. This is the future-proof music of metropolitan polyglot minds invigorated by nature’s mute refusal to follow a click-track.

DMM Pressing. Limited Edition of 500.
