ENG
This EP should give you an insight into one of the freshest producers out there at the moment, the German @lukasendhardt. He grew up among the most diverse kinds of big and small percussion instruments since his father is a Latin jazz percussionist. He always have felt connected to rhythms from cultures that are not his own. In one way or another, it has led a life deep in several rhythms. 
His catalogue includes much-loved work; most obvious thing you will hear is the focus on Brazilian rhythms. Lately Lukas had been very fascinated by the religions based on Yoruba traditions, especially Brazilian Candomblé. By the looks of it, we can understand how Babalaô EP was born. In Yoruba culture Babalaô (Babalawo) is the priest dedicated to the worship of Orunmila-Ifá, epiphany of divination. 
In that light, Lukas has created a work peppered with catchy tunes to provide us a cultural extrapolation. Therefore, this is not just about synthesis between two musical cultures but also between relaxing chill out music and highly energetic themes. All highlighted by his own hallucinogenic filter.
His mother, Burga Endhardt, painted the art that draws the cover. We can notice some similarities between EP & artwork: widely warming, organic taste, kind of surrealness too. It includes different layers, natural forms and shapes. We think that is a picture-perfect match.
Since it is deep, dubby, laid-back but always driving, the four tracks are geared for the dance floor. Nevertheless, certain elements reveal a hidden fringe where Lukas are serving contemplative realness. Besides the three original tracks by Lukas, we also have a penetrating perspective channeled in @arutani’s remix, delivered as a striking extra for the listener.
In short, the EP is a useful indicator for where Lukas is at right now stylistically and reflects as a direct correlation with our motto: slow is the new fast and awesome too

Lukas Endhardt — Chegou O Rei Congo

"Exploraciones" is Shika Shika's new series of releases that unite together two artists from different corners of the world to collaborate on a track and then bring that track to a group of artists to edit or remix. 

For this first session we invited two artists we hugely respect: Chilean trio Matanza and Turkish producer Oceanvs Orientalis. We then invited Jhon Montoya (Colombia / Italy), Carrot Green (Brazil) and History of Colour (Argentina / UK / Mexico) making this a truly global expedition!! 

Masterized by Yosi Horikawa (JP)

Matanza ∞ Oceanvs Orientalis -La Luna Y El Lobo (Original mix)

“There's nothing fundamentally wrong with people. Given a story to enact that puts them in accord with the world, they will live in accord with the world. But given a story to enact that puts them at odds with the world, as yours does, they will live at odds with the world. Given a story to enact in which they are the lords of the world, they will ACT like lords of the world. And, given a story to enact in which the world is a foe to be conquered, they will conquer it like a foe, and one day, inevitably, their foe will lie bleeding to death at their feet, as the world is now.”
(Ishmael)

La canzone del padre:
this is an invitation to love our fathers. To accept and forgive our past.
It's time to hold, let go and open our hearts for a new story to embrace.
A story to enact in which Life doesn't belong to us but we belong to Life.

A huge thanks to my dear friends Luis and Lukas for the inspiration.
The beautiful vocals are taken from "Mandela" by Danyel Waro.

With Love

Daniel Holmes - Madonna a dítě (II) [ynFree001]

Two of the best tracks off the sold out Brasileira LP get an updated dancefloor treatment by Selvagem, Carrot Green and Joakim. Repress of the album is imminent.

A1 Cântico Brasileiro Nº3 (Kamaiurá) (Selvagem & Carrot Green Remix)

B1 Lamento Africano/Rictus (Joakim Remix)

Those who experienced listening to the original Maria Rita version of "Cântico Brasileiro Nº3 (Kamaiurá)" on the dancefloor know it's such a thrilling experience that could only be better if the song was a bit longer. At the same time, it didn't make much sense to mess with the original. Having these thoughts on their minds, the Selvagem boys' Augusto Olivani and Millos Kaiser (the minds behind Selva Discos) had an insight while discussing the reissue of the "Brasileira" material with singer Maria Rita Stumpf: why not hit the studio and remake the track? Also, why not ask someone like Joakim, known for his exquisite taste and brilliant production skills, to remix "Lamento Africano/Rictus"? It would be the perfect package. And that's what happened.

In order to properly remake "Kamaiurá", they recruited Paulo Sergio Santos from Uakti, one of the musicians that took part of the original "Brasileira" recording sessions, a supertalented multi-instrumentist who still possesses a version of the plastic tubes responsible for the particular bass sound of the track and also a couple of flutes reminiscent of the ones first used (not to mention a lot of crazy instruments he brought alongside him; on a side note for those not familiar with Uakti, it was an instrumental music group from Brazil famous for creating their own instruments whose godfather was Milton Nascimento and peaked in the 1990's playing with Philip Glass). Carlos Gualda aka Carrot Green, who's been collaborating with Selvagem for the past 3 years, was also summoned for the mission.

The project of remaking "Kamaiurá" also needed a proper recording studio, so Augusto and Millos pulled a couple of strings to rent the legendary Vice-Versa studio in São Paulo (now owned by the Brazilian label Trama), which was founded by Rogério Duprat (yes, the Tropicalia maestro), Luiz Arruda Botelho, Sá & Guarabyra in the early 1970's – a beautiful, spacious acoustically-treated wooden room fully equipped and controlled by a Neve console. There, Paulo Sergio Santos recorded 12 different instruments (none of them electric or electronic) and Maria Rita Stumpf sang in a studio after more than 20 years, on a different arrangement than the original, with a new intro and an outro, also extending the song (including a breakdow) for a better dancefloor experience. Later, Selvagem & Carrot Green worked on the post-production, adding a kick drum, a hi-hat and some Rolando SH-101 punctuation, all very minimal, so the feeling of a jungle excursion of the new session would be preserved. 

Concerning the "Lamento Africano/Rictus" remix, it's a great feeling when you present your first choice an idea and the person is just hooked by the power of the music. Joakim was just very interested about the singer, the instruments used, the lyrics and jumped aboard this project quickly. He didn't had the same opportunity as Selvagem & Carrot Green had, being offered to work with just the original song, but did an amazing job inverting the elements of this suite, using the kalimba-sounding instrument in the introduction and the African lyrics in the breakdown, turning this subtle, sensitive chant in a dancefloor monster.

BONGA MONA KI NGI (HOLED COIN EDIT)

The jungle was alive with the sound of music, distorted and loud it echoed through the trees. The drums of passion banged loudly amidst the midnight hour as the villagers danced and chanted in a glorious display of love and adoration. The leaves of the trees cast strange shadows across the soggy ground as the rain began to pitter patter in the puddles beneath. The night air smelt like the wild flowers and strange plants which grew all around, she began to dance.

Our brother Bawrut has released a new EP on Lyon based record label Hard Fist. A beautiful collaboration between good friends we are delighted to be able to showcase this one.

PREMIERE: Bawrut - Pregamell [Hard Fist]

The A-side, taken off their debut 2XLP on Malka Tuti with the same name, coming out via #kompakt on 15/12/17

This 2XLP album, EUROPA, is dedicated to and inspired by events in 2015 & 2016, which saw the spectre of global crisis come knocking at Europe’s doorstep. During this time, more than a million migrants and refugees fled their homes in the Middle East, Northern Africa, sub-Saharan Africa and other conflict ravaged areas in search of a better life. For many, hopes of a future for themselves and their families lay in continental Europe.
As already said about the preceding 12” single with the same name - One of the most well-trodden paths on this journey was the Balkan route, a trail leading through Turkey, Greece, and the former Yugoslavia.. This route was not without its dangers, and the dreams of thousands upon thousands were dashed by impassible security fences and discordant EU politics, as one by one they were turned away at borders, or worse, forcibly returned to their countries of origin.
 
Europa was recorded during long jam sessions in Belgrade as the media spotlight started to dim. The city became the purgatorial destination for a large number of migrants, whose journeys had been cut short.

Preview of the first single off the SALSA FINGERS debut LP. This comes out early January with FOUR hot remixes by Chile's AYE AYE.

Salsa Fingers - Rikitu Takatu (PC005)

In the age of total globalization, we travel every day with information, which we get in the moment of waking up, shopping, walking or staying in bed. We are so used to it, that we take it for granted. Although we are looking for self-identification, we don’t really have an idea who we are, everything is chaos, and we are in a constant search. Koyil is no different, taking a journey in the furthest corners of our planet, he is inspired by something miraculous and unknown. He shares this experience and feelings through his music. The Healing Cycles album is the result of these kinds of trips, it is a worldwide journey that we can take indoors.

Whatever comes next between Anunaku and 3024 will surely have a lot of ear, eyes and feet at the ready; because even the A-side is enough to warrant speeding to the center of the dancefloor to lose yourself in just one go.
