Martin Rude & Jakob Skøtt Duo released 2 albums in 2020: The Discipline of Assent & The Dichotomy of Control. For the third installation in their Stoic opus, they join forces with Tamar Osborn on saxophone & alto flute. Similar to their first 2 albums, Rude & Skøtt improvised a tidal wave of ideas and grooves in the studio of Causa Sui’s Jonas Munk, the perks of which were shipped to the UK for Osborn’s overdubs of echo-drenched sax and wah-flute. An improvisation rippling across time & space, merging a river of constantly in flux head-on improv, as well as making room for floating harmonies and studio-wizardry.

Playful, experimental and explorative, the trio ventures into a free wash of exotica drenched in deep modal jazz-vibes - with splashes of something more futuristic and modern. But contrary to what the title suggests, there are also roaring waves of energy, sizzling funky grooves to complement the ambient undercurrent. It’s a record akin to the library & film music of the 60’s and 70’s and an ode to the willful river of experimental moderation. Far in.

En este primera sesión haremos una acercamiento a la figura de Judith Butler y comenzaremos a entrar a algunos de los primeros planteamientos que lanzó en su obra “El género en disputa”. En el centro del libro una idea “el género resulta ser performativo”. Esto es, -como señala Butler-, “el género siempre es un hacer, aunque no un hacer por parte de un sujeto que se pueda considerar
preexistente a la acción. El reto que supone reformular las categorías de género fuera de la metafísica de la sustancia deberá considerar la adecuación de la afirmación que hace Nietzsche en La genealogía de la moral en cuanto a que «no hay ningún "ser" detrás del hacer, del actuar, del devenir; "el agente" ha sido ficticiamente añadido al hacer, el hacer es todo»

A partir de aquí intentaremos empezar a contestar a la gran pregunta que desde el comiento de su obra empieza a lanzar Butler y que afecta a las luchas políticas, el sujeto del feminismo y toda la construcción de identidades. Ella lo expresa con una contundente reflexión: “Si no es posible apelar a una «persona», un «sexo» o una «sexualidad» que evite la matriz de las relaciones discursivas
y de poder que de hecho crean y regulan la inteligibilidad de esos conceptos, ¿qué determina la posibilidad de inversión, subversión o desplazamiento reales dentro de los términos de una identidad construida? ¿Qué alternativas hay en virtud del carácter construido del sexo y el género?

Constant Shallowness Leads To Evil

Ibibio Sound Machine are set to release their debut LP through Soundway Records. Fronted by British / Nigerian vocalist Eno Williams, they combine elements of West African highlife, disco, post-punk & psychedelic electro soul. Preceded by the pulsating first single 'Let's Dance', ‘Ibibio Sound Machine’ will be released 17th March.

Folk stories, recounted to Eno by her family as a child in her mother's South-Eastern Nigerian Ibibio language form the creative lyrical fabric of the album. A large dose of electronic elements and an approach as influenced by London as much as by West Africa, give the vocals and guitar lines space to breath without being overwhelmed.

From the banging sub-bass of 'Lets Dance' to the spiritual, gospel-tinged notes of the album's opening track 'Voice of the Bird', the band have turned in a dynamic and, at times, beautiful take on modern afro-soul music.

The 8-piece live band made their official live debut at this year's Transmusicales in France and will be a name to look out for in 2014

Brooklyn-based producer Jitwam takes to The Jazz Diaries, the label he runs with Casey Van Reyk and Nigel Mphisa, to release his latest vibed-out offering in the 'Purple' EP, which features a heavy dose of his distinctly funky, soulful and eclectic sound-profile.

Born in India, raised in Australia and now splitting time between Brooklyn and London, Jitwam's vast musical knowledge and diverse influences shine in his unique productions. When describing the new record, he shares that it's “heavily influenced by the rhythm of New York. The buses, cars, and trains... It feels like a night out in NYC, making your way to the club and ending back at the crib at 5 AM watching the sunrise.”

Here Mixmag premieres the lead cut 'Desire', a bumping and bouncing groove oozing with a smooth arrangement of organic elements, piercing guitar riffs and sensual vocals. 

Jitwam's 'Purple' EP is set to be released July 18.
