DURGA & DEMON (CNTRL ALT DEL XIGUBO REMIX)
Taken from @motherofmars's EP 'We Hear'
Out Now on Ransom Note Records - https://ransom-note-records.lnk.to/WeHear

Earlier last year Vito Roccoforte and Gabriel Andruzzi aka members of the era-defining NY post-punkers The Rapture emerged from their DFA/major label hangovers into a world of sonic wanderlust with their debut long-player ‘I Hear’ under their Mother Of Mars guise.

Emulating all that was good and great about the rhythm section of their previous incarnation but exploring corners all-new, on 'I Hear' they enlisted a third bandmate; Jaiko Suzuki, on vocals. The album ventured down different tributaries, journeying into psych, kosmische, avant-garde, fourth world and new age dreamscapes.
The resulting album provided technicolour bleeps, drones, ethereal singing and a plethora of percussion interweave, like a fractal mosaic in harmonious sensorium.

Now on 'We Hear' the band mobilises rising producers, friends new and old, to remix the best tracks from the LP. First up Russia’s @natasha_bai takes 'Through The' out into the morning light as the sun breaks over the horizon. Natasha’s touch is marked by her ambient-pop influences, transporting the listener through otherworldly universes.

Next up is the amazing Mozambican producer and DJ Nandele (@nndle) with his new project Cntrl Alt Del (a collaboration between Nandele, Marco Dray and Roberto Chitsonso Jr.), going into full band wig-out mode on their take on 'Durga & Demon'. The project sees the three musicians and composers merge local traditional
Mozambican music - in particular, traditional music from Cabo Delgado - with techno and other electronic music genres. Nandele is a well-established figure in the Maputo music scene, being one of the most
innovative DJs and producers to come out of the southeast coast of Africa.

Then @borusiade’s interpretation of 'I Hear' - the LP's title track - disappears down electronic avenues of psychedelic wonderment, marked by their trademark sound, often dark and melodic, filled with piercing bass lines and immersive sonic vibrations.

Finally, Brooklyn-based Abby Echiverri (@echiverri) takes the tempo down a notch, evolving 'Matteruno's haunting vocals atop stuttered beats. A Drexciyan atmosphere seems to halt time for a short interim, releasing ethereal vocals, intertwined with distorted keys of analogue masterpiece.
