“Bija” SLAMCD 556.
The Sanskrit term ‘bija’ means seed – the origin or cause of things. The Italian trio “bija” take their beginning with a vibration, a sound from which their music grows, developing surprising soundscapes. Salento, the region of Italy where the trio originated, is the south east tip of the country, surrounded by the Adriatic, absorbing many influences from neighbouring cultures.
In addition to the bija trio of Francesco Pellizzari (drums and percussion), Gabriele di Franco (guitar and loops) and Marco Puzzello (trumpet and flugelhorn), this 2013 studio recording also features special guests Emanuele Coluccia (saxophone) and Stefano Luigi Mangia (voice).
In January 2012 Bija composed and recorded soundtrack for the film "The Guardian Distracted", directed by Marcello Ciullo. In May of the same year they won the critics' prize at the "B-Live Contest", Lecce and in summer performed in final of the international contest "Jimmy Wood Award '12" (La Spezia). Their song "0" won the first prize at the "Soundslices '12." And in August 2012 Bija won the first "Band Revelation of the Year" at Jazzup Festival, directed by Greg Burk.

Lyrics:

My mother's been scared my singin' could turn out
To make me a university drop-out
All new folks think I'm as calm as a sage
Look at me now, standing on the stage
Yeah, that's right, I'm standing on the edge
I'm only a verse away from losing my way
Scarry eh? Academic decay
Quantum resonating particles, harmonic delay
I hear them in my head all day
Only when I sing or write does the noise go away

My mind is a maze,
Once I am on the stage 
I go out of phase
My vision's a haze
Once I touch the strings,
My imgination strays
And once I open my lips,
My heart goes ablaze

I never get it right the first time I try
But gimme a little time and I'll blow your mind
I need to feel, to see,to touch, to smell, to be
Just a little hint, just a little bit
Then only a little inspiration is all that I need
For a fabulous display of breathtaking insanity

And when I come back, 
I hit like a tank
Take a deep breath 
else you're facing heart attack
Cause' I'll hit the strings
with lighting speed
And I'll play this thing
Until my hands bleed

After the show I assume I'll come home
Where I assure you I've got my verse to hone
Tidal waves o'adrenaline surgin through my veins
Open up wide open my chakra gates
I always obsess with my mistakes
Once I'm off the stage they turn into headaches
And that only reminds me of my past heartaches
But slowly fade away into freezing grounds like snowflakes

I can't use my guitar to get chicks,
Cause I'm way too intense when it comes to lyrics

So playin for my sanity is the main thing I do
Cause' baby I'd lie to myself if I were to play for you

In our concentrical 7inch series we release two electro-psychedelic tracks by Ion din Dorobanți from Bucharest.

Release date: 18th august, Vinyl only

Ion din Dorobanți is one of the many monikers of the ubiquitous producer Ion Dumitrescu from Bucharest. His 7” single on Pingipung shows the oriental influences on bass music in his hometown. He is the co-initiator of the Future Nuggets label and its sub-label P-Balans. They are both based in Bucharest and run in heavy rotation at the Pingipung office and in our DJ sets. If he is not Ion din Dorobanți he appears as Australopitecus Oltensis or Utopus. Among his productions is the brilliant debut LP by Steaua de Mare.

Paper bag is a drum predominant track that packs a punch. An effort to bring together nu-metal and hardcore punk with the hip-hop and electronic music, in a progressive manner.
