Songs For Broken Ships

Andi Otto & MD Pallavi - Prayer To The Cloud

Invisible Inc is proud to present another unique and remarkable release, this time diving even further into ambient, spiritual and folk-infused psychedelia.

“Mondo Organico”, as the name suggests, is a concept compilation that captures the “organic” side of the label. The use of non-electronic instrumentation is a familiar theme explored previously with the likes of Komodo Kolektif, Immaculate Rivombo and Peter Power...but this time the instruments and voices, tranquil and meditatively hypnotic in places, display an even deeper spirituality.

Featuring the talents of Andi Otto and his fello (electronic cello), Anna vs June's ethereal vocals, Tyler Ov Gaia's zoned-out mantra rhythms, Pieter Kock's 8-minute bass and guitar psych odyssey, as well as label favourites Sordid Sound System and Puma & The Dolphin, the record is enthralling and mesmerizing from start to finish. You will want to flip it over when you reach the end...and start all over again.

PREMIERE⚡️Andi Otto - Mahua Mandala [Invisible Inc.]

“I was 2190 km away from where the smoke came up, but fortunately
everything went well and she put out the fire in time. Last night I brought
my stuff to the laundry for the first time again.

When I think about it, it became a rather dark story of temporary
soundtracks about being lost alone on an infinitely long street hoping for
the repairman to come and fix everything. It took me a while to bring all
this together and make a sense out of it, especially because of the chicken
sounds. Sometimes it is not that easy to catch the feeling of a certain
time while living in it. It seems like the waves of moments have increased
their frequency lately and somehow things that were just recently fixed
burned down again. The guy from my street told me that he would sell me a
washing machine that does not burn down my apartment. So that at least is
some kind of progress.“

Pingipung Podcast #160 is online and we are happy to have Infuso Giallo aka Philipp Carbotta on board. The Berlin resident runs the label Kame House, designs graphics, produces and plays leftfield electronic music. His output presents an intersection of these activities – self-released, self-designed and self-produced.

Philipp on his mix: "I got the idea for the mix when I received a letter from the Magdeburg police because I was speeding in a 100kmh zone. So in order to redeem myself, I strictly adhered to the speed limit in this mix, while traveling through a very diverse musical landscape. I hope that this will make the fine notice obsolete. All gas – no brakes!"

Enjoy this great mix!

Pingipung Podcast 160: Infuso Giallo - Tempo 100

Marie Klock is a French singer and multi-instrumentalist who lost her dear friend, poet and performer Damien Schultz, two years ago. Struggling with the weight of grief and the absurdity of being alive, she composed an album shaped like a ceremony around some of his poems, to be released on Pingipung end of March 2024.

For this Outsiders episode, she celebrates life with a shameless mixture of wavy rarities and sick bangers.

Now this one is special for us: Strobocop aka Thorsten Lütz is the head honcho of the Karaoke Kalk label. And the records Thorsten put out at the turn of the century in Cologne were a big influence for us in starting our own label Pingipung. We are thinking about artists such as Wunder / Wechsel Garland, März, Takagi Masakatsu, Fumble / Kandis, Donna Regina or Hausmeister. 

And Karaoke Kalk still releases lovely records today by artists as diverse as Rolf Hansen, Mimsy, Golden Diskó Ship or The National Jazz Trio of Scotland. Thank you Thorsten. For your influence and this beautiful mix.  

Thorsten says thank you as well:

To Tim Xavier (https://soundcloud.com/timxavier) for your time and a lovely evening. 

To Jan Gazarra (https://soundcloud.com/forgotten-birds) for showing me the catchy tune by Mike Oldfield

Pingipung Podcast 162: Strobocop - One From The Heart

Second single from the album "Damien est vivant" (Release: Mar 29).

In the wake of a profound loss, Marie Klock, a neo-chanson singer and multi-instrumentalist from Paris, presents a poignant tribute with her debut on Pingipung. On “Damien est vivant” Marie Klock pays homage to the poet Damien Schultz, who has recently passed. They were intertwined both in artistic collaboration and deep friendship. 

Marie Klock creates a powerful ode to Damien Schultz's surreal, anarchic, witty and at times provocatively obscene French (English translations are included in the vinyl release). The poet's own voice resounds alongside Klock's, oscillating between spoken word and neo-folk vocals. Recorded in an intimate lo-fi setting with co-producer Julien Louvet, the 10 songs are far from a mournful requiem. They showcase idiosyncratic pop music brimming with humour and absurdity. “Damien est vivant” is a celebration of the unique bond they shared, in past and present. The melancholy sometimes takes on an almost whimsical quality, an allusion to the world as perceived through the lens of two kindred spirits. 

Marie Klock has appeared as keyboardist on international stages with Sofia Portanet and collaborated with artists such as Jean-Louis Costes, Chilly Gonzales, Charlotte Brandi and Adrienne Pauly. Her self-titled solo LP (2020, Les Disques De La Face Cachée) was a cheeky outing of her synth-chanson act. She is currently working on a duo album with Anadol, to be released on Pingipung in autumn 2024.

 “Damien est vivant” will be released on Good Friday 2024. Marie Klock will present the album in live ceremonies.First single from the album "Damien est vivant" (Release: Mar 29).

Marie Klock: Boule et Bill (Pingipung 084 / LP, digital)

"A raag is a set of rules, it is a framework inside which the artist makes a musical journey. What fascinates me when listening to a great 'hindustani music' artist are her choices at every phrase. The journey she chooses to spontaneously make and take herself and us down a path never explored before. 
In the second raag of this mix, Kishori Amonkar sings the raag Bhoop, a pentatonic scale - sa re ga pa da sa (do re mi so la do). With these five notes she creates a profound experience. 
Like every classical music form, this too is an acquired taste. But I grew up inside this music, breathing it. I hope it resonates with you and takes you on a journey."

Pingipung Podcast 163: MD Pallavi - Khayal: a thought stretched in time

First single from the forthcoming Marewrew compilation on Pingipung.
Release: MAY 10th.
Press contact: flow@morrmusic.com

Marewrew (pronounced: Ma-leoo-leoo / mɑleːu̯leːu̯) is a female vocal group that sings traditional Ainu songs. The music of the long-suppressed people from northern Japan has been a particular focus of Pingipung's output in recent years, together with Oki Kano who recorded and produced many Ainu artists. Following various re-releases by Umeko Ando, the late grande dame of traditional Ainu music, the spotlight is now on the a cappella music of Marewrew, which by the way means ‘butterfly’ in Ainu. Attentive listeners will recognise the voices, as some of the band have already performed as backing singers on recordings by Umeko Ando. Their a cappella versions of traditional Ainu music shed a whole new light on the fascinating songs that have been passed down through generations exclusively through song.

'Ukouk' means 'round singing', which refers to the form in which Marewrew perform and record. Many of the songs are set as tightly interwoven canons: one starts, the others join in, but slightly out of phase: Almost like dub echoes, except that they are sung and not created in post-production. The short songs sometimes unfold into a wondrous trance ('Sikata Kuykuy', 'Honkaya') that seems to spin round and round - if singing can actually dance, then this is how. Nature sounds and woodpeckers can be heard ('Hawsa’), and there is a funny miniature in which the ladies imitate birdsong ('Takuro'). Things get hypnotic with an evocative song about stranded whales ('Hunpe Yan Na’) or an ode to the Orca as ‘Little Sea God’ (‘Pon Repun Kamuy’). The album culminates in unexpected pop ('Yaykatekara') or cumbia moments ('Kanerenren') with a band line-up including percussions and Oki Kano on the famous Tonkori harp.

Marewrew are Rekpo, Hisae and Mayunkiki. Rim-Rim was a member of the group until 2022. Mayunkiki reflects on the ambivalence of performing traditional music as a contemporary band: "When we first started performing, we all thought we had to perform in an Ainu way. But over time we have become more and more open to new ways of singing. I think if our way of singing is seen as the only, correct way of our tradition, then it won't spread, it's not alive. We like it when it's traditional, but it changes, just like our voices have changed over time.” ( Quote from the film 'Marewrew's Voice' by Eiko Soga (2021))

'Ukouk' is a selection of Marewrew's work from the last 13 years, compiled from CD releases by Pingipung's Andi Otto. Oki Kano has contributed unreleased material and added new versions of the songs which had only been released in Japan. The album has been remastered by Kassian Troyer and is now available on LP for the first time.

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."
