Roe-deer woman.

I was

I was a roe- deer woman

Other roe-deers were marveling at my face

Other people were  at my hooves

So I weared highills, there were nailing on the moss

I was

I was a roe- deer woman

My name was E, because I always desired W

I desired W, to be WE

To be WE

In the nights I had a dreams about W

In the dreams beutifull hybrids came to me

I was

I was a roe-deer woman

I was looking for W in the needle forests

I was searching  WE on the concreto roads

I was a roe-deer woman

I was calling W on the concreto roads

I was calling WE in the niddle forests

I was

I was a roe-deer woman

And when I was looking for

And when I searching for WE

In the niddle forest, on the concrete roads

I was triaing to learn a backwordwalk 

In case suddenly appeard W

In case suddenly appeard WE.

I was, 

I was a roe-deer woman

And when I was walking 

On the concrete roads

In the needle forest

I stumbled over a stone

Oooo what a wonderfull stone -  I thought

Oooo what a beautifull stone – I said

Althought he doesn’t have arms

He doesn’t have eyelashes

He doesn’t have penis

But why not, why not

Why can’t he be my husband

And I put him on my bag, and I put him on my bag, I put him on my bag

I was

I was a roe-deer woman

He doesn’t speak but you know

In love everything is beyond words

He still doesn’t speak 

So I was thinkink that We had a silent days

I was,

I was a roe-deerwoman.

I was,

I was a roe-deer woman

And one day I flew away

On the cosmic Stone…

Am I happy?

Sure, it’s wonderfull meeting new stars everyday.

GABBER MODUS OPERANDI - Pedas Sumatra

Kasimyn is one-half of Gabber Modus Operandi, the Bali, Indonesia-based duo that catapulted to the forefront of the Southeast Asian underground in 2018. As is the case with G.M.O.'s bewildering amalgam of modern and traditional/ritualistic sounds, it's not easy to wrap one's head around the origins of the music in Kasimyn's mix here, the result of a month of sharing links between himself, Ican Harem, and Enggohoi (OHOI records) (@enggohoi).

There's a myriad of complex historical and intercultural connections at the root of this music. According to Kasimyn, it is essentially grassroots synth-based dance music that is often played at wedding parties, harvest ceremonials and other events. Some of the wedding parties might turn into impromptu raves but generally the music is not intended for proper club purposes.

Kasimyn adds: "This music is mostly influenced by polyrhythmic 'Karo' traditions from northern Sumatra, and a new form of 'Rentak Kudo'; a fast-paced dance music genre which literally means 'Horse Stomp'. According to popular myth, the earlier Rentak Kudo events were so loud, you could hear them from neighbouring villages. The singer / MC, who is basically the master of ceremony, speaks in a lyrical form called 'Asuh' (or 'Pengashuh' in official Indonesian Bahasa language), which means 'caretaker' or 'guardian'. Additionally, a big variety of Persian and Arabic vocal and melody patterns are incorporated, since Sumatra was one of the first gateways for Islam to Indonesia in the 13th century, as introduced by Arab Muslim traders and the missionary activities by scholars."

[ This mix consists mostly of lo-fi youtube rips and old cassettes, since most of the material isn't available in any other format. Mastering / audio clean-up by Sebastian Pappalardo. ]
