BCR Radio Episode 043 - El Michels Affair - Sound Business

Lost Arabia

“Divine music is a curative virtue; it is a gift from God that brings healing and comfort to the soul. This music can uplift one’s spirit up to a higher dimension of being that is filled with peace and joy. Divine music is the sound of true life, wisdom, and bliss. This music transcends geographical boundaries, language barriers, age factors; and whether educated or uneducated, it reaches deep into the heart and soul, sacred and holy, like an Infinite sound of glory entering the Lord’s sanctuary.” – Alice “Swamini Turiyasangitananda” Coltrane (1937 – 2007)

Around 14 years ago, I first glimpsed Alice Coltrane on the cover of her 1972 album World Galaxy. She was wrapped in robes and framed by the psychedelic figures of artist Peter Max. From her radiant gaze I knew I had encountered a high spirit. When I dropped the needle and heard the music my world was blown apart. Between the newly shattered pieces Alice injected a shimmering light. Her string arrangements, lush and majestic, dissolved at points, giving way to intimate moments that burned and swung then swelled skyward again.

Alice’s early Impulse! Records output was jazz music infused with an air of the divine. She was paying tribute to and continuing the legacy of her departed husband John Coltrane while offering the world a glimpse of her blossoming spirituality. Her song titles alone let us know where her mind was: “Journey in Satchidananda,” “Galaxy in Turiya,” “Jaya Jaya Rama,” or simply “Mantra.” These were cosmic love songs, and although her great Earth lover was gone, her universal love was growing.

Alice was a woman of constant transformation. She was born Alice McLeod, to became Alice Coltrane then eventually shed conventional names to become Swamini Turiyasangitananda (Sanskrit for “the highest song of God,”). Earlier on, Alice had embraced the teachings of the guru Sathya Sai Baba and shades of her spirituality were reflected on a string of gorgeous albums from the late 60’s through 1970’s on Impulse! and Warner Brothers. In 1983 she retreated from secular life altogether and founded the Vedantic Center Sai Anantam Ashram tucked deep into the Santa Monica Mountains bordering Los Angeles. Her musical output seemed to silence but in actuality the waves were building.

Turiya (Alice) had given up secular music to focus on pure devotion. Her songs of praise came in the form of Vedic Chants. These were not muted, whispered prayers. They were ecstatic praise in full swing. The sessions were released as worship tapes & cds available through her Ashram’s Avatar Book Institute: Turiya Sings (1982), Divine Songs (1987), Infinite Chants (1990), Glorious Chants (1995). They are a total revelation for any Alice Coltrane fan and a missing link of sorts in her musical story.

These four albums are collections of purely devotional songs. The verses are Vedic Chants repeating the names of deities. These swirling, meditative mantras are sometimes sung solo with serene fragility by Turiya and at other times rise in magnificent, gospel-like form from the Ashram Singers. Throughout, the magic element is Turiya’s synthesizer, which dives, sweeps and rises like a million stars cradling all in ancient, blissful light. These are the tones of a luminous glow that is gentle but powerful. It is music made by a woman and her devotees who were in full, astonished love with the immense universe and the tranquility they found within it. Although these songs were cosmic in scope they have been largely unheard by the world. I hope you choose to explore further and even if the flames do overtake this music it will continue to ring on in your heart and beyond.

“Er Ra” from Divine Songs
“Keshava Murahara” from Divine Songs
“Rama Guru” from Infinite Chants
“Gopala” from Infinite Chants
“Hari Rupa & Siva Mantra” from Infinite Chants
“Journey to Satchitananda” from Glorious Chants
“Charanam” from Turiya Sings

The Ashram Tapes of Alice Coltrane : a reflection and mix by frosty

Through The Looking Glass

1 Midori Takada - Mr Henri Rousseau's Dream (Reel-2-Reel to Digital conversion)

Limited edition of 500 vinyl LPs housed in hand-printed, laser-cut and sewed 1mm thick cardboard covers. All produced and assembled by hand in a pure DIY spirit, and for this reason: NO CLAIM will be accepted due to an "imperfect" cover.

"Separated from both its reputation and its sleeve art, the music of Muslimgauze explores the relationship of visual sensations - space, colour, depth, illusion - to the listening experience. The music on 'Maroon' is dub-like inspired techno music, laid back with voices appearing randomly in the mix. The thick drums and rich found sounds that densely populate the soundscapes on "Maroon" give materiality to the warm presence of the synth washes. The music is so layered and textured that it ceases to be aural and exists almost solely in the realm of sight and touch.
Devoid of reference to any external reality, Muslimgauze's Ambience gets remoulded by subjective experience and moved around in the memory. By shifting the quality of perception with the producer's sleight of hand, Bryn Jones (the Mancunian behind Muslimgauze) makes explicit the interiority of the senses. Thus, the fact that our inner life determines our relationship to the world outside becomes the music's unspoken subject.
Divorcing Muslimgauze's music from its image is like listening to Take That without seeing Robbie's pelvis or Mark's pouting. This is precisely why the music is so effective.
Relocating music's power within the listener instead of as an external force acting upon the listener forces reappraisal and reinterpretation. The muezzin's wailing call to prayer and the shrieks of women mourning the dead conjure up images of a fierce 'death-to-the-infidels' fervour in the Western imagination, and are recast as holy prayers for the ultimate, womb-like peace that most Ambient music aims to express. The usually easy exoticism of sampled tablas and ouds instead hint at the dread on the road to the water coloured bliss of run-of-the-mill Ambient and force the listener to internalise difference and confront the received images of Islam that Muslimgauze detour by such strong powers of suggestion."

All Tracks Written, Performed, Mixed By – Muslimgauze.
Recorded, Engineer, Mixed By – John Delf.
