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

Andi Otto: Bangalore Whispers (Peter Power Remix)

Says the legend that on an eclipse ocasion, both guarani and inca people threw a big party to daze the Celestial Ounce (Xivi), because they believe that the end of the world would happen when she gobbles the Moon and Sun brothers, then the Earth falls thus in the fullest darkness. Just as Xivi, Raru is the hindu demon followed by a tiger that also tries to voraciously swallow the stars, causing the eclipses. Like these, countless ancestral myths around the world explain this phenomenon; for the Pomo people there is a fight between the Bear and the Sun, and for the Tlingit it is the moment of stealthy darkness for the Moon and the Sun to love each other.

`If war is holy and sex is obscene. 
Then we got it twisted in this lucid dream. 
Baptized in boundaries, schooled in sin. 
Divided by difference, sexuality and skin.´

We are thrilled to welcome our friend and collaborator Tofu Resistance to our free download series with a very unique, powerful and expressive arrangement. 

“The Awakened“ combines formidable beat skills and soothing instrumentation with a poem of empowerment that makes you wonder and think about our current status of equality of gender, race or nationality.

Taken from 'Earthly Tapes 01' out VINYL & DIGITAL on 1st May 

https://earthlymeasures.bandcamp.com/album/earthly-tapes-01

A new Earthly Measures adventure begins...We introduce to you Earthly Tapes 01. This first compilation features artists that have been alongside us on our journey so far, as well as new members welcomed in to the Earthly Measures family. Inspired by sounds from all corners of the globe, artists from Ecuador, Brazil, Argentina, Australia and the UK invite you to experience their homelands through their individual musical styles, keeping to the diverse sounds that Earthly Measures has come to be known for!

Ecuadorian born Joaquin Cornejo’s KOMOREBI serves as an excellent introduction to the label, with emotive sounds and soulful lyrics creating a beautifully peaceful track. This is a song built around almost forgotten vocal recordings of the amazing English singer Wabi Sabi and resampled old magnetic tape recordings that make up the rich textural background.
