Exclusive track taken from Olan Mill's latest offering “Curves”, released on Shimmering Moods Records as a limited edition CD / tape...

This record was completed on either side of a trip to Myanmar at the end of 2016 - it captures a time of total change as I prepared to become a father and relocate to Germany.

Built upon field recordings from my home and various work environments I found myself reflecting on places I had spent hours of my life living, working and growing. Layers of processed guitar, synthesisers and voice were added to create a time-capsule of locations and experiences. - Alex Smalley

Sowy

We’re pleased to announce our sixtieth release, which is a collaborative project between renowned musician and Montreal, Canada activist Stefan Christoff and Italian sound artist Matteo Uggeri, as well as musicians Claire Abraham (Cello), Fern O’Dactyl (Violin), Peter Burton (Double Bass) and Will Eizlini (Tabla).

‘Raven, Raven, Raven’ is a longform piece which originates from a live performance at Casa Del Popolo in Montreal, between Christoff and the aforementioned musicians. The ensemble performance was for a benefit show at the Native Friendship Centre and at a later date this was subsequently passed to Milan-based artist Matteo Uggeri, who had previously collaborated with Stefan through their mutual contact Vasco Viviani, owner of Old Bicycle Records. Matteo was tasked with the opportunity to deconstruct, rearrange and rebuild this raw recording as well as to adorn it with additional layers of sounds. Matteo’s own take on the original work took up a new approach to something that was originally live and flowing and once each artist had their own space in which to bring their own separate ideas, they then spent a slow period of regular communication via email during which the project gathered the momentum to eventually achieve the final results which have been beautifully mastered by Ian Hawgood.

'Raven, Raven, Raven' still flows like a live record, as if Matteo was there, present at this intimate live music venue, playing to the small crowd. Field recordings, samples and radio static blend through the individual movements of this modern classical micro-symphony in a seamless way. The album is intended to be gapless, playing continually both as the single track on the CD or as the split 5 movements within the stream or digital version.

The title to this body of work reflects back to how the original concert performance was set up to help support indigenous programs for people struggling with homelessness and poverty, with birds not only being particularly important in poetics, but also in different indigenous cultures too. It is often a symbol and this motif repeats itself within the recurring themes throughout this recording both within the music and the beautiful packaging, which features paintings by Chris Day and graphic design which Matteo also contributed to. Both Stefan and Matteo care deeply about human rights and the playful composition they have produced alongside this group of musicians represent this, with characterful glints of hope and freedom.

По мотивам письма Антона:

"Вот если человеческое сознание оцифруют и повместительней в некую матрицу, в которой все люди будут знать где они находятся и что они цифровые копии, как они себя будут вести? Как мыслить? У них же нет таких структур известных из психологии как подсознаний, бессознательное. Как они будут мыслить и действовать? Или будут симулировать привычную человеческую жизнь и мышление?"

Here is one of the absolutely lovely tracks from the upcoming release from composer/musician, Mario Verandi, whose beautiful album is entitled "Remansum".

Mario Verandi, "Remansum"     With Eyes Hidden

Fuck The Ballet School - icelands

Tęgie Chłopy band continues the traditions of live dance music of Kielce region, Central Poland. The aim of the band is to revive the music that used to be performed in the villages in the old days.

Kielce region is known for its brass orchestras - that is why Tęgie Chłopy include a strong brass section, namely trumpet, clarinet and bass.

The members of the band are the disciples of village musicians. One of their most important masters is Stanisław Witkowski from Opatów, an 80-years old clarinet player. Together with his four brothers he created a legendary band  that performed traditional music during hundreds of wedding parties. People say that Witkowski brothers were able to lift the ceilings with their music. And that is the goal of Tęgie Chłopy, too.

The band’s members put effort and attention to recall the sound and characteristic groove of the village music and give it a second life, bringing back its erstwhile practical function.

Tęgie Chłopy is a word-play and stands for „tough chaps“. In the same time, „chłop“ is a local name for the type of old traditional dance tune in the region of Kielce. „Chłop“ represents a kind of mazurka – dance tune in triple meter, characteristic for Polish traditional music.

Tęgie Chłopy:
Stanisław Witkowski, Michał Żak – clarinet
Maciej Filipczuk, Michał Maziarz, Marcin Żytomirski – violin
Ewa Grochowska – violin, vocal
Mateusz Kowalski – accordion
Szczepan Pospieszalski – trumpet
Dorota Murzynowska – drum
Maniucha Bikont – bass, vocal
