Syriana (S40 Remix)

2 - Black Zil (S40 Remix)

Ipiros (S40 Remix)

Syriana - Gharibb (Eccodek Remix)

The song is titled “N’yanyan,” based on an old song passed down over time. Rokia Koné recorded it in one take on a night when the world around her was in upheaval — August 2020, when there was a coup d'etat in Mali. You can hear how she found solace in the words: “Things may be bad now, but it's only a moment in time.”

Kettel - Cardinal Baby. Taken from Wingtip, Clone Dub 013

We warmly welcome back Kettel who makes his return to Clone/DUB records since his debut Cenny Crush 15 years ago (which was followed by the brilliant Whisper Me Wishes in 2007). After a hiatus of 3 years since his last release Kettel is releasing his new album on Clone Records. The talented musician has been busy with producing music for computer games and commercials, but is now offering a fine selection of pieces he has made in the last couple years with this full length in mind. The result is a playful, inspiring, eclectic, delicate, melodic, well-balanced and brilliantly produced album fuzzing elements of electronica, classical music, jazz and techno stirred into flawless, memorable compositions. As a 90's kid Kettel has always been inspired by the early electronica pioneers (whose names don't even need to be mentioned... everyone knows who we're talking about right?), and on this album too you can hear some of the aesthetics of those late 90's productions, but adopted into Kettel's unique world of confident rhythms and melodies filled with expression. The music on this record has a lyrical quality to it and is so expertly written that it does not strictly depend on it's electronical environment: these compositions would still stand firm performed on whatever combination of instruments. Another lovely and magical release by Kettel thats spreading good vibes from the first to the last second!

Loney dear - Lilies

Swedish singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Emil Svanängen makes records and plays shows under the enigmatic name of Loney Dear. In the early 2000s, in his Stockholm apartment studio, Svanängen made a name for himself by creating homemade CDrs with a minidisk microphone and a home computer, self-releasing albums. By 2007 his music was embraced by US label Sub Pop, who released three albums: Loney Noir, Dear John and Hall Music.

Loney Dear has built a significant reputation over the years, with some glowing reviews in The Guardian, BBC, Drowned in Sound, Pitchfork and earlier this year the Line of Best Fit went as far as calling him a “brilliant genius”.

Consistently creating elegant, deeply stirring music, Loney Dear has been described by The Quietus as ”…the obsessive work of one man, albeit one that can sing with the vulnerable delicacy of an angel and makes bedroom recordings that sound like God's own orchestra”. Multi-layered with instrumentation and Svanängen’s fragile yet irrepressible vocals, Loney Dear’s songs bloom with a sense of both intimacy and openness, at once uplifting and heartbreaking, tenacious yet tender.

Loney Dear signed to Peter Gabriel’s Real World Records in June 2017. The eponymous album will be released on September 29th to tie in with a European Tour and a preview at WOMAD Charlton Park in July.
