Reduced  ~ a soundtrack to reduced living and better self-care

A live improvised set of meandering sonics from the DJ, sound artist and TT affiliate.

Reduced is a new series that strips sound back to its most transcendental, restorative and atmospheric textures to block out the noise and aid focus, attunement and relaxation. Each one will be paired with a mental health charity and be accompanied by an interview focussed on self-care. The combination of all three will create an evolving resource of knowledge and experience that provides solace, inspiration, reassurance and company in difficult times.

Taking a collaborative approach to their mix, female electronic drone choir NYX piece together tracks, sound collages and field recordings which "represent their collective influences", from ambient and experimental through to choral, chamber music, drone and ambient/electronic soundscapes, "with a lot of focus on space, texture and the use of voice as an instrument."

Jose Rico _ Star dreams [Downbeat 013]

Downbeat lives up to its name and step by step, is slowly making its way.
The new release of the label from Madrid is signed by one of the label's honchos, Jose Rico.
Influenced by the US sound, he has achieved a unique and special sound. Jose's trajectory for more than a decade as a producer is impeccable. The list of labels where he has released is endless: Freebeat, Semantica, Eleve, Aesthetic Audio, Into the deep, Sound reflection, Future Reactions, Red Sonja, Off minor, Neroli, Chubby!, Ten lovers music to name a few... but above all Downbeat where he has left genuine jewels of slowed down house.

Now he returns with a release that is quite different from that "Yagoba Itzoiten" or his recent "Déjà Vu". The label begins a new stage, opening up to new sounds unexplored until now, as can be seen in tracks like "Astrolenguaje", "Future jazz" (with Specter and Anthonius) or "Star dreams" which gives name to the album as a declaration of intent. Downtempo, Nu jazz, broken beats and of course, House music, is what we can find in this instalment number 13.

A1. Airlife
A2. Astrolenguaje
B1. Everybody feat. R. Valero
B2. Our Own Organization feat. Anthonius_ future jazz
B3. Star dreams

Out in Aug, 22nd, 2021.
