Barrio Lindo - Espiritu Misterioso

The second single from "A Guide to the Birdsong of Western Africa" comes from Senegalese super-group Wau Wau Collectif and features Kora maestro Lamine Cissokho. They made a beautiful track inspired by the Yellow-casqued hornbill, a species that faces a high risk of extinction in the wild, mainly due to habitat loss and hunting. The lyrics call on citizens of the world to mobilise, come together and protect our ecosystems.

In the native tongue of the South American tribe Mapuche, there exists the word ‘MENOKO’. Deep within the Andean Forests there are sacred places, springs of purity known as Menokos. Hidden and untouched by man or animal, they are whispered, home of virgin water. Womb of the natural cycle from which plants and herbs of extraordinary medicinal abilities are nurtured.

@BarrioLindo feels a strong bond to the native tribes of his Argentinian home. Ancestral cultures are of great importance, providing a wealth of inspiration. An instrument maker by trade, using his bare hands he constructs many ethnical instruments like Andean flutes, African harps, string instruments from India and so on. This fascination with indigenous sounds is reflected within his music and themes with the use of samples and tribal instrumentation. While understanding his work is far from that of the native cultures, he finds ways to incorporate these influences through fusions of sounds. Drawing a parallel, worlds both old and new align.

'MENOKO' comes on limited purple double vinyl as well as a limited handmade and handpainted purple cassette edition.

Written & produced by Agustín Rivaldo. Mixed by Agustín Rivaldo, Ignus Zavalla and Jeronimo Escajal in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Vocals on Arrayanes by Agustín Rivaldo & Ignacio Perez. ‘Bombo Leguero’ on Libres played by Camilo Carabajal. Voice on Libres by Awka Nehuen. Mastering by Sven Friederichs.

PMC129 - Barrio Lindo 'Menoko' Snippet (Purple 2LP/MC/Digital - Project: Mooncircle, 04.04.2014)

Hello everyone, and welcome to DKODA: The Soul'd Out Show (Vol. I - IV)!  This is without a doubt my most ambitious project to date - a 4 part audio experience, where the 4 Volumes of music are split into 4 Acts - like a music themed audio play, presented to a live audience on stage. I wanted to tell a story about unrequited love, heartbreak, loneliness, elation, hope, grief  & despair. Further themes of true love, passion & desire finally intertwine with peace, togetherness & freedom. The protagonist's story is told in audio form using the lyrics and emotions in the samples of the music selected and used. I hope you enjoy the 'event'!

DKODA - Peace Of Mind

A quiet ambient piece with simple patterns and slow movements,  
carrying a slightly nostalgic atmosphere.  
Designed as a late-night soundscape for calm listening and clear thinking.

The São Paulo based collective, Sonido Trópico, have long been establishing themselves as a new voice to be heard within the latin-american scene.

They now take a big step forward in founding a Label. Their first official release, SONIDO TRÓPICO VOL. 1, contains 13 tracks that put into waves exactly what Sonido Trópico is all about. The Producers and DJs who's work appear on this first album have not only played at Sonido Trópico's already infamous parties, but have worked alongside Sonido's 4 Resident DJs (Spaniol, Nirso, Salvador Araguaya & El Peche) in bringing new life and energy to the Sâo Paulo scene. Together they have reinterpreted and expanded, beyond precedent, the horizons of electronic music within the ultra-creative scene in São Paulo.

>>> PORTUGUÊS

Há tempo que a Sonido Trópico vem se estabelecendo como uma das novas vozes dentro da nova cena latino-americana.

Agora tomamos um grande passo. Fundamos um Selo de música com o lançamento de nossa primeira compilação, SONIDO TRÓPICO VOL. I, com 13 músicas dedicatórias a o que é a Sonido Trópico. Os produtores que compuseram esta coletânea, não somente tocaram em nossas festas, mas moldaram a nossa construção através de suas músicas e interações com os nossos DJs. Juntos expandimos, de forma sem precedentes, os horizontes da musica eletrônica existente na cena underground paulistana.

Tem MUITO mais por vir!

Nirso - Mi Mascara

A journey through Peruvian folklore has been transplanted across Latin America in our latest compilation, a collection of tracks entitled Sonidos Raíces del Perú. Our aim was to show the beauty of traditional Peruvian music and customs, but in a completely different context, by asking some of our favourite Latin American producers to reconfigure the sounds, retaining their soul but offering new environments in which they can be enjoyed. 

The starting point was the astonishing collection of field recordings amassed by nomadic French film-maker Vincent Moon during a trip of his to Peru between April and June 2013. In total he recorded 33 albums of material - petitesplanetes.bandcamp.com, each one representing a particular Peruvian custom, musician or group, spanning the entirety of the country. From that collection we asked a diverse group of producers and musicians to pick sounds that inspired them and to then interpret them in their own distinctive manner. 

Across 11 tracks, Sonidos Raíces del Perú (translating as the “Root Sounds of Peru”) offers progressive, electronic interpretations of folk artists, ancient instrumentation, rituals, religious chants and everyday sounds, using techniques and methodology found in wide-ranging styles such as dub, musique concrete, electro-pop and the hyper-creative electronic music scene in Latin America, a scene that is currently creating ripples around the world. 

The source material for all of the tracks is available from Petites Planetes at petitesplanetes.bandcamp.com/album/sonidos-ra-ces-del-per-originals

04 - El Remolon - Wari Wawa

Adiós Morena is the first single off of Afro-Pacific super group, Rio Mira's forthcoming album, Marimba del Pacifico. Composed by Esteban Copete, the single also features remixes by Nicola Cruz, Kaleema & Chancha Via Circuito, Midnight Ravers and M. RUX. 

In 2015, UNESCO added the marimba to its Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, observing that "Marimba music and traditional chants and dances are musical expressions integral to the family and community fabric of people of African descent in the Colombian South Pacific region and Esmeraldas Province of Ecuador." 

In celebration of this cultural heritage, and with a main goal of creating an intergenerational meeting between the sounds of Afro music from the Pacific, Rio Mira was founded. The project has a fundamental mission of revitalizing and strengthening bonds between the members of the Afro community from each side of the Colombia-Ecuador border. 

Rio Mira is co-produced by Ivis Flies (Co-Director and Creator of the musical and social heritage recovery Project "De Taitas y Mamas", nominated for a Latin Grammy in 2013. "Smile Ambassador" in 2010) and Ivan Benavides (Producer of Carlos Vives, Sidestepper, Chocquibtown, Grammy Winner Gaiteros de San Jacinto) and features a number of well known Cali and Esmeraldeña artists including Esteban Copete and Karla Kanora. Rio Mira's first album, Rio Mira - Marimba del Pacifico, will be released in 2017 on AYA Records.

Somos de la Noche (@ssdln) continues their excellent start to label life with perhaps our pick of their releases to date.

@ibu-selva is someone we're been keeping a keen eye on since his inclusion on the labels introduction EP and this really delivers. We're big fans of his percussive jungle sounds and reckon you'll be hearing a lot more of him this Summer.

The 3 track EP will be available in the coming weeks in all the usual places. Our pick has to be experimental ' Boi de Sol'. Enjoy
