From The Ground Up

Philotimo

Wolfi Schlick - flute
Teresa Gruber - trombone
Niko Schabel - mpc, percussion, rhodes, organ, bass, alto saxophone) 

„Lost & Found“ presents unreleased material from Bajka and Niko Schabel, famous for their hits „The Hop“ and „Summertime“ with fans all over the world. And it features two unheard collaborations with MPC wizard Masajjaa.

This record is a dive into the history of Radio Citizen´s early Berlin days and in spite of all the time gone by this album sounds as edgy and fresh as „Berlin Serengeti“ and „Hope and Despair“ from the years 2006 and 2010.

Radio Citizen is a project by mastermind Niko Schabel and a changing group of musicians from Munich and Berlin, including on this recording the "classic" horn section with Teresa Gruber and Wolfi Schlick, Klaus Janek on double bass and the brilliant drummer Julian Waiblinger.
Musically diverse, it had been tagged: Deep Krautjazz Dubecho Clubculture Electric Arcadia Free Soul

Bajka is a vocalist and artist born India with a distinctive voice that reminds in some ways of Billie Holiday and Erykah Badu. Apart from Radio Citizen she worked among others with Beanfield (check out the Carl Craig remix), Dissidenten and Bonobo. And Bajka released records under her own name, check out her wonderful single on Jazzman Records, Bajka in Wonderland and Bajka with Rejoicer.

Athens-based, The Blue Square is a project of Radim and Radical, two producers exploring the boundaries between hip-hop (mainly instrumental), trip-hop and nu-jazz. With Wax Tailor, Bonobo and Flying Lotus among their favorite artists, they started their career five years ago investigating their own sound equally inspired by the atmosphere of film noir, exotica and spy movies of the past. - beehy.pe article

'Pie In The Sky' Lyrics 

Praying for a new day, looking for some clarity
seeing people dying inside silent cries covering their lives
walking the earth more dead than alive
they struggle hustle and bustle just trying to survive
crabs in a bucket, bees in a hive existence
check the sorrow and the pestilence
the lines in their faces is the evidence
money and power the goal
pushing back matters of the soul looking for control
who really got it in the jungle where survival is a rumble on arrival
you get pummeled if you stop drop and fumble
plenty stumble cause the road is uneven
the deception and the treason got you living like a heathen
they tell you keep believing cause there's more to what you seeing
got you looking for a reason, they tell you in due season
somewhere in the distance is a pie in the sky
you will get it when you die, why ask why?

the cries in the wind are from the eyes of unseen souls
slipping thru societies' fold
like feigns coping with the wings of dreams broken
sliding back to status quo
yeah they promised change but left the mold broken
fuck the token hoping, the block's infested with rodents
politicians knowing, but they don't care
showing not a worry in the world till they bite their little girls
that's when receivers adjust and the story unfurls
where we live preachers tell us to forgive
wonder what they tell police in these streets that kill our kids
can people be free without justice?
your honor, I'm just building my case with a mic
on what it's like, living in a state where the weight increases
they got us fighting for the barest of essentials
we struggle to prosper while the mayor eats lobsters
and denies the poor pasta, that's improper.

'Pie in the sky' Ft. Gregg Green & dj Enthro

This is future music created by a journey through the past, and here it's disassembled and rebuilt, one groove at a time.
