Not speaking about Pelmeshkin's pizza of course...

Kyson Live in the Boiler room Berlin

As the title says, it's all about the piano: my favorite solo piano pieces from recent years. There are days (and nights) when I can only listen to the sounds of 88 black and white keys, and sometimes I feel that these sounds get so deep under my skin that I can repeat after Peter Broderick: "I am piano". 

P.S. As you see, this clip is just a teaser. Soundcloud didn't let me upload the mix because of one particular track included, so in order to listen to the mix please <a href="http://www.mixcloud.com/snobo/snobos-pianotheque-88-shades-of-black-and-white/">go to Mixcloud</a>, where you can also find the complete tracklist. Or - better yet - download the high-quality MP3 or FLAC from the link below.

09 Crows On The Eaves Of My Father's House

A wicked sequence of circumstances recently made me, all of a sudden, review my semi-abandoned collection of deep minimal drum'n'bass tunes and after a long break check if I still remember how to beatmatch and work the woofers. Thanks to that occasion I recorded my first ever full-on 170bpm mix. Surprise surprise. 

The artwork is based on a painting by Larisa Shellar, a unique and breathtakingly amazing underground artist from Riga, whose works I have fallen in love with.

The mix features the following artists: Om Unit, Sam KDC, Genotype, Anile, Synkro, ASC, QNS, Frederic Robinson, Sabre, Kid Drama, Machinedrum, Naibu, Fracture, and a special guest appearance by Jóhann Jóhannsson. For complete tracklist <a href="http://www.mixcloud.com/snobo/clockwork-knowledge/">check the Mixcloud</a>.

Clockwork Knowledge

An electroacoustic journey on the waterways of dreams. A beatless lullaby for the life-beaten souls. A soundescape from the city to the fields and recordings of those. An aural watercolour painting.

This is a redux studio version of the mix I played @ Watercolours open-air festival in Riga on 06.09.2014, and which was banned by Soundcloud for copyright reasons and available on Mixcloud only. 
   
Still, I kept thinking of finding a way to put it on Soundcloud, but a straightforward edit wasn't an option because taking the suppressed track out would ruin the dramaturgy of the mix; and actually, I was already considering reshaping the live take into a more refined studio version. So here it is: meticulously (re)constructed, multi-layered assemblage that still takes cues from momentary impulses of a live performance. I think it's one of the cases when an obstacle forces you to improve and achieve even better results than you originally were aiming for.

Introvertech vol. 4: Around the Kitten

Existentially, this mix is a meditation on mortality, a fear of death (own and dear ones) and simultaneously a latent desire to shortcut the earthly path. A kind of aural Maranasati, just prettier and less scary, or a reading from Seneca’s letters, but non-verbal and less moralizing. Kicking off with the sound of clay burial urns captured by Simon Whetham, it is centered around Sufjan Stevens’ lament to his late mother, which opens the gates of an "afterlife" that begins with a narrative from a Russian animation about seeing ﻿[﻿signs and﻿]﻿ wonders in mundanity and finding a waltz pattern in flashing street lights, followed by a limbo of Melanie De Biasio’s consolation to her own mother, and rounded off by a succession of heavenly piano music dissolving in the sounds of Latvian nature.

We are all fireflies, waltzing our way between two eternities. Do you know how to waltz?

Gosh Snobo - Waltz of The Fireflies

Emerald & Doreen do the Magic Trick

Illusionist and stunt performer, noted for his sensational escape acts, Houdini had an endless repertoire including chains & ropes slung from skyscrapers, straitjackets under water, escaping from inside a sealed milk can and so on...

Very much like Houdini with his amazing stunts, Emerald & Doreen is pushing the boundaries (some may say our luck) with their ecelctic repertoire that follows its own logic and even more so with this bold set of remixes. Remixes that take Houdini’s magnificent rock anthem „Secrets' into an eclectic fusion of Nu Disco, perfect 80s Pop, Killer Dub, Acid House & Electronica. 
Houdini, the fresh and upcoming Electronic/Rock four piece from Dublin Ireland, was bold enough to lay their masterpiece into the hands of Emerald and Doreen, knowing very well, that we will push the limits far and beyond. But as always according to our credo: a fanatstic song needs to be celebrated with an equally amazing set of remixes.
The Magicians involed in this frivolous remix stunt include Elektromekanik (the perfect auto scooter track), A Copycat (Disco Dancing on a rope), David Garcet (buried alive and the air gets thin), Statickman (happy straightjacket escape), Irregular Disco Workers (something with a spinning wheel and throwing knives), Haioka (the upside down trick) & Blackmod (overboard box escape from the deepest ocean)

NYC producer / DJ and perennial favorite, Sid Vaga, is back with his 3rd release on Wonderwheel Recordings. This time around, he's focused on both the deep late night euphoric sounds you might hear at a 6am outlaw party with the song "Sereias" as well as a tough, jazzy track called 'What's Happenin'. 

Topped off with a heavy four to the floor remix by Paris's DJ Herald you have a bangin' 3 tracker for the crates!


Sid Vaga - Sereias (Herald Remix)

Four new incorporations to Xclubsive Recordings in a same reference, the producers Purple Plate and Windom R with the collaboration of Toha and the Remixer NNP. The union of these artists has the result of a incredible Progressive Breaks production with the title Street Shaman.

Street Shaman

Street Shaman (feat. Toha)

Purple Plate & Windom R ft.Toha - Street Shaman (NNP Remix) * 21.December on Beatport

Announcing our 12th vinyl release! TUBA 012 features the work of Doctor Jeep & Nigerian vocalist Magugu, throwing down at 170 bpm on two serious tracks. Rounding out the release is a digital exclusive remix from the badmanTMSV.

Doctor Jeep’s music has been described as “a style somewhere between the forward-thinking bass mutations of Cosmic Bridge, the grinding 808 electro of Swamp81, and the breakbeat-heavy sound of early 90′s UK rave music.” With releases on a wide range of international labels such as NYC's Trouble & Bass (R.I.P.), Vancouver’s Aufect Records, and Nottingham's Tumble Audio, and support from tastemaking DJs such as Claude VonStroke, Shy FX, Hannah Wants, J:Kenzo, Machinedrum, and My Nu Leng to name a few, the future looks bright for this multifaceted producer.

The mix I made for the radio show SoundRound (Radio Naba 93.1 FM www.naba.lv), hosted by Dj Monsta, an old friend of mine we used to shared stages with in the 90s, when he was a DJ and I kinda MCed for Latvian jazz-funk band Time After Time. He's a very good DJ, both taste and skill-wise; also works with live musicians on collaborative projects, the results of which I can't wait to hear. And hopefully it won't take long for him to start producing his own music... Check his show on http://www.mixcloud.com/dj_monsta
