The original track has so much calypso fire with people screaming and going wild, that I got inspired to make a remix with a pumping dancehall beat. Enjoy!

John Buddy Williams - Saturday Night Blowout (Pascal de Lacaze Remix)

Shika Shika is very proud to share our last release of 2021 - “Labalamer”, a four track EP created between the sun and the waves of the indian ocean by Reunionese drummer and producer Eat My Butterfly.
Labalamer was composed during 2021 after Dilo’s return to her native La Reunion island and her roots. The release shows the textures, simplicity and slow movement of this re-encounter with her homeland, embracing the traditions of La Reunion and its maloya music. On “Labalamer” she creates an unique, emotional and intimate sound, exploring the lines between Dilo’s own roots, her instrument (drums and percussion) and electronic music. In a dialog between downtempo & maloya, each track presents its own entrancing universe and colour. Meanwhile themes like bereavement, expatriation and an inner journey of discovery are threaded through the release. 
Eat My Butterfly has emerged as one of the most exciting young artists to emerge from the flourishing and diverse scene on the island and in the Indian ocean and the EP also features a selection of fellow Reunionese artists such as Christine Salem, Aleksand Saya and Justine Mauvin ‘aka’ Sibu. They are joined by names from further afield such as French artist Dal, Corsican bass player Alix Guglielmi and a special collaboration with Shika Shika co-founder El Búho

Yo, studiowhitebird community! 🐦✨ The wait is over. Our brand-new series, 'Unwritten Gods', kicks off now!
Get ready for Song 1: 'Anubis Scale', presented by the powerful voice of Gothy! This track is a dark, soul-crushing Trip-Hop journey into the ultimate moment of truth. Gothy’s smoky vocals narrate a story of a soul trapped in a vast chamber, with their heart laid bare on the sacred ground of judgment. It’s a chilling first-person account of being weighed on the scale of the forgotten god, Anubis—a scale where every secret, every unsaid thought, takes its toll.
This song is about the desperate struggle of a spirit facing its fate, where promises could not be kept and the echoes of an ancient deep reveal all.
Welcome to the start of 'Unwritten Gods'!

Hallo, studiowhitebird-Community! 🐦✨ Das Warten hat ein Ende. Unsere brandneue Serie, 'Unwritten Gods', startet jetzt!
Macht euch bereit für Song 1: 'Anubis Scale', präsentiert von der kraftvollen Stimme von Gothy! Dieser Track ist eine dunkle, seelenzerstörende Trip-Hop-Reise in den ultimativen Moment der Wahrheit. Gothys rauchiger Gesang erzählt die Geschichte einer Seele, gefangen in einer riesigen Kammer, deren Herz auf dem heiligen Boden des Urteils freigelegt wird. Es ist ein fesselnder Bericht aus der Ich-Perspektive, wie man auf der Waage des vergessenen Gottes Anubis gewogen wird – eine Waage, auf der jedes Geheimnis, jeder unausgesprochene Gedanke, seinen Tribut fordert.
Dieser Song handelt vom verzweifelten Kampf eines Geistes, der sich seinem Schicksal stellt, wo Versprechen nicht gehalten werden konnten und die Echos der uralten Tiefe alles offenbaren.

It was a little over a year ago and my life was in the midst of changing. I had dropped out of college and taken a job at a new company. The uncertainty had crippled me creatively, and the things that had comforted me throughout my life were no longer doing so. I needed to evolve, but I did not yet grasp how true that was.

Once my friends got back from Burning Man and I was surrounded by their stories, energy, and creativity, I realized that I had become a cynic and a passive consumer of the culture around me. Everyone's desire to make and share inspired me to create and participate again.

The music that my friends shared particularly spoke to me. This music was inspired by global sounds - it took me out of the concrete prison I'd worked so hard to put myself in. The cultural isomorphisms of the rhythms, melodies, and instruments helped me realize how much bigger the world is. I saw the connection between eastern and latin sounds and finally saw my blood, my upbringing as a strength and not a disadvantage for the first time.

At that point, I began making music again.

I've taken a rather unorthodox approach to sharing it, however. Rather than disseminating songs on the internet, I've worked closely with friends to curate shared experiences. These include a midnight set for a small room of people during Wolf moon blizzard, organizing an intimate DIY festival at a farm with all my best friends, and DJing in a remote beach on the north shore of Oahu. My only desire is to contribute to my life and others in an active way.

And, although I mostly keep the few songs I make to myself (and a small group of friends), I now wish to share some with more people. Here is the fruit of that wish: two songs, "Lost In Translation."

I look forward to making the Black Rock City pilgrimage in a few weeks and find new life yet again...

We are delighted to present "Aura" a remarkable release by the Argentine producer Andres Oddone inspired by his two trips to the country. "Aura" is a sonic interpretation of Andres´ time in India, like a musical photograph - fusing the music, life, culture and people he met and was exposed to during his time there.

LA NOCHE MAGICA DE MILES, Universildo

¨El Extravagante¨ is one of these unique characters you find in South America, famous street poet/sommelier, panflute/synthesizer shaman, diplomatic of the Andes and Eastern cultures, guerrilla man of tropical rhytms facing the Canadian ice and snow, an immigrant in the ¨other side of the world¨ he’s an electronic-folk rhythms local hero in Montréal.
After more than 10 years of career as @FelipeNadeau. In 2017 ¨El Extravagante¨ is born along his first EP under @selloregional which was called ¨Patiperro¨ (in the Chilean slang: the one who loves the street and traveling) and had amazing reception worldwide!. With presentations in Chile, France and Canada.
With formal studies in Tourism, Arts&Culture Management, today Felipe lives in Montréal where he is an artist, organizer and activist along with @CosmovisionRecords, spreading the love for the new forms of folklore and electronic music from LatinAmerica and the world.

 About his song with Ultra K
The Condor calls the Eagle makes reference to the prophecy of ¨The Condor and the Eagle¨. The idea was that my song had a South American Andean style plus my singer Ultra K from her feminine side and talent could represent the Condor, in this case calling the Eagle, which is North America, very masculine and competitive. So with this call we can awake souls and connect to the energy of the Condor, the spiritual and feminine side, creativity and mother Earth.

Cosmovision Records presents ¨Elements of These Lands¨ 
cosmovisionrecords.bandcamp.com/

We started as a group of music producers in Montréal, immigrants from Latin America, Europe and friends from Canada, we wanted to reinterpret the elements of this land, from North America such as: nature, native cultures, artistic forms and others. This woke a great interest from artists from all over the world, thing that finally lead to our compilation ¨Element of These Lands¨, in plural, adding a big tribe of friends from all over the world which today are part of our artistic essence, a multi cultural collective.

Our proposal is to make music that evokes respect and consciousness about nature, which understand our cultural differences as a great value for us. We look to go beyond the act of pushing buttons to create digital music, on the other side, we want to inspire ourselves as a collective and invite to reflect about the elements of our land, elements that sometimes western culture forgets, but through art we can analyze, reinterpret and value.

Our first compilation has cultural influences from: Canada, Mexico, France, Chile, Turkey, Belgium, Colombia, Lebanon, Switzerland, Italy and Argentina. 
We want to thank all the producers evolved in this compilation and our artist Mathieu Bories, visual genius of our collective; also everyone who have believed in us and never forgetting you, the people who download and share these voices which are echoes from the land itself, that through artists sing to us to generate awareness of our roots and the elements of our land.

El Extravagante ft Ultra K - The Condor calls the eagle

Devenir Maleza was one of those projects that just arrived in our overflowing inboxes one day out of the blue. We opened the link and discovered four finely crafted, beautifully produced and captivating tracks of transformative, percussive music. 

It rare to find music that marries so well recorded percussion, live instrumentation and vocals with deep electronic productions without one dominating on the other. With Devenir Maleza Prisma and Martin Broder, a duo based between Berlin and Buenos Aires, managed to find that sweet spot that we love so much here at Shika Shika: deep, electronic but natural, acoustic and introspective. Or as the duo describes it: “a crackling, soothing, hypnotic lullaby.” 

Devenir Maleza’s was inspired by the concept of “becoming” and of transformation in many aspects. Through their long-distance collaboration the duo’s starting point was to imagine music becoming la maleza or “the undergrowth”, as if it the synths, vocals and instruments were sinking into the humid earth or drawn from the whistling wind or emerging from a rustling forest. 

The duo is joined on the EP by the talented singer and pianist Maria Barone as well as techno-producer / percussionist Merlin Genschel.

"La Huella (The Footprint) Remixed" is the union of talented musician and producer friends who chose to leave their mark on this new work from @derrok, revisioning the melodies of the original album, adapting them to their own sound, and bringing these elements to new horizons, traveling from the city of Santiago to Berlin, from the sclerophyllous forest to the páramo, from the Pacific to the Atlantic, and returning once more to the Araucarias of the Patagonia. This work is the fruit of the rich diversity of climates, flora, fauna, landscapes, and living beings that make their homes amongst us and leave their heartfelt mark on this life.

The remix package comes along with such a beautiful bundle of artists like: @menteorganica, @gallardomusica, @vrunomusic, @landhouse, @andiandean, @steffenkirchhoff and its gonna be released on @nomaderecords.
