Zbraaa is a unique collective, composed of puppets inspired by the world of Jim Henson and two human musicians: Xavier (aka X-A "Excès") and Thomas (aka Toxic Pow). Their style? An explosive cocktail of festive electro hip-hop, designed to make festivals and clubs vibrate, especially when night falls and their giant screens light up the stage.

PREMIERE | Cøunts - Dancing Puppets [Die Kreise Records]

Theme song for a fictional children’s puppet variety show, from the short film Bloody Felt. Directed by Samuel Torres.

Funtime With Froggit & Friends (Theme Song)

Recorded and performed by Eighth Blackbird at Tiny Tempest Farms in Lake Geneva, WI. 

"to end this family line" acts as the overture for "Stone House," an evening length puppet show conceived by master puppeteer Blair Thomas and Directed by Ann Hamilton.

to end this family line

A joyous conversation today with Buddhist artists and practitioners about illustration, animation, puppetry, model making and art - how all of these can help bring to life the Buddhist path in the most beautiful, moving and inspiring ways!

Mandarava has always been a maker. Her way into puppetry came initially through trying to make sense of deep family grief. Mandarava’s work is brimful of magic - filtered through fairy tales, her own deep immersion in illustrative art and the realm of stories accompanying long-cherished images, both from childhood and her further adventures as a grown-up. We hear about her exploration of female figures from the Buddhist and other mythic traditions, including the resonances between old mythologies and certain kinds of visualisation meditations that feature imagery representing a rich seam of possibilities for transcendent Buddhist practice.

Aryajit, animator extraordinaire, was inspired as a boy by Star Wars’ retelling of classic mythology. It was a major influence on his deciding to live out the Buddhist path as “the adventure of my life”; and to help make the tradition new in his own work animating many aspects of that path. His work appears extensively on The Buddhist Centre Online, explaining and evoking in brilliant ways both the nuances of the Dharma and the life of the Buddha as a set of nested myths and stories that still resonate today when re-presented in this way. Watch any of his animations (see the show notes below!) and you can feel his own quietly passionate heart in the work. 

Prasannavira from The Windhorse Trust was instrumental in helping fund Aryajit’s new animated series, ‘The Legend of the Buddha’. We talk about helping shape a Buddhist context to fund creators and innovators. And how bringing up his own children within a broadly Buddhist culture informed by classic stories and images has helped him as a parent. We also hear about Prasannavira’s own trove of mythic reference points, including Studio Ghibli’s ‘The Tale of the Princess Kaguya’. And about his early days as a Buddhist in London, profoundly affected by modern evocations (inspired by Tibetan tradition) of the great guru Padmasambhava.

There’s so much to enjoy in these thoughtful exchanges: from the legacy of classic British children’s television and theatre to the life of the imagination itself. We explore how stories can help us work with past trauma to figure out a realistic path through life in relation to our ideals. And the connections between new work in animation, illustration, puppetry, drawing and painting and established traditions of folk and classical Buddhist art (from India, China, Japan and elsewhere). Whether it’s the value of dramatization, theatre and ritual for evoking the best of Buddhism, or how being “good” at art isn’t the point - everything flows in this fun episode about how to never lose touch with the sense of wonder and creativity we have as kids, and need now more than ever.

THE DARK CRYSTAL (1982) Retrospective: Failed Fantasy Blockbuster 1x13

Meddl Meets AI. feat Beans/to/the/Bones

Graind-Slaughter-Engine ist das wildgewordene Solo-Metal-Projekt von Beans to the Bones, einem Typen, der ernsthaft beschlossen hat, Grindcore, Goregrind, Brutal Death und Black Metal mit der Hilfe von künstlicher Intelligenz (und einer Prise Wahnsinn) zu einem musikalischen Monster zu verschmelzen. Hier werden keine halben Sachen gemacht: Es gibt extremen Lärm, absurde Sound-Experimente und genügend Unfug, um eine ganze Scheune voller Gummihühner zum Erzittern zu bringen. Die Songs? So brutal, dass deine Nachbarn ihre Gartenzwerge in Deckung bringen. Graind-Slaughter-Engine ist das Metal-Projekt für alle, die sich fragen: "Was wäre, wenn meine Lieblingsmusik von einer Maschine mit einem leichten Anflug von Größenwahn gemacht würde?"

Mostly accurate improvised history podcast starring The Mysterious Historian and her friends.

Brian L.H. Gunter is a versatile composer known for his work in film across style and genre. With a unique blend of symphonic and hybrid synth styles, and Brian’s signature sound design he makes every score sonically distinct, yet grounded in the world the filmmakers are creating. His expertise spans symphonic, rock & metal, blues and jazz, musical theater, ambient, and electronic music, reflecting his broad musical palette and innovative approach. 

 A classically trained cellist and experienced multi-instrumentalist, Brian is proficient in guitar, bass, piano, and an assortment of other instruments and musical technology. He is an avid fan of both orchestral and popular music. Throughout college, Brian played in small ensembles, chamber groups, and symphonic orchestras, while also performing guitar and keyboards in top 40, rock, and metal bands.

Brian’s career took a significant leap with his first feature film score for "You Might Get Lost," directed by James Eaves and released in 2021 by Amber Pictures in the UK. This ambient hybrid score of synths and orchestra harkens back to Carpenter-esque genre classics, underpinning much of the film’s emotional current and gradually raising the intensity along with the protagonist's desperation. 

 For Eaves' follow-up feature, "The Apocalypse Box," set for release in August 2024, Brian was tasked with creating a dramatically different score. Eaves requested a departure from the sparse ambience of "You Might Get Lost," aiming for a classic symphonic horror score. Drawing inspiration from Jerry Goldsmith’s "The Omen" (1976) and Fernando Velázquez’s score for "Devil" (2010), Brian crafted a
composition that is frenetic and bombastic at times yet somber and reflective at others, focusing on clear motifs that put the tension low in the viewer’s gut. All while maintaining his own flair and signature style. The original soundtrack is set to release shortly after the film's premiere, showcasing his evolving musical journey. 

In early 2024, Brian was brought on board by director Yvonne Williams of The UNcollective Productions to score her debut feature film, "White Vinegar." Yvonne chose Brian after bonding over their shared love and language for music and artists across the board. For "White Vinegar," Yvonne wanted Brian’s orchestral touch blended with elements of musical theater, inspired by Sondheim, and incorporating original songs Yvonne also wrote for the film. The blending of styles and interconnectedness of themes across Brian’s score and Yvonne’s songs created a cohesive and wildly distinctive sonic landscape not often seen with scores in recent years. “White Vinegar” is slated for release later in 2024. Just two months later, Yvonne enlisted Brian again to score a 10-minute proof of concept for her upcoming 2025 film, “Rubber Room,” an intense thriller with a science fiction twist. 

 Brian’s adaptability and creativity were put to the test with “Bloody Felt,” a horror/comedy/musical/Muppet parody by young filmmaker Sam Torres. The project demanded a range of musical styles, from a classic children’s puppet show theme to EDM, Dubstep, and Argent Metal, alongside a classic horror score. Brian managed to weave themes throughout each style to create chohesive musical support all within six minutes of screen time. After a public screening the film and music received overwhelmingly positive feedback, highlighting Brian’s ability to seamlessly blend disparate styles. 

While the goal is only ever to provide emotional support the film and characters demand as set by the filmmaker’s vision, Brian L.H. Gunter’s body of work exemplifies his ability to push musical boundaries and create unforgettable scores, cementing his reputation as a composer who brings a unique sonic identity to every project.

I am an Italian singer, composer and voice artist based in Barcelona since 2007. I speak, sing and compose in different languages (Italian, Spanish, English, French, Portuguese and Catalan). I have a contralto timbre, and a souly voice. I have a lot of fun with studio recording and exploring voice creative possibilities, interpreting lyrics and texts. Voice tempo, make up different voices styles and delivering emotions through them are my strengths. Since 2012, I have performed voiceovers for commercials, children playlists, theatre companies narration. I have worked with several studios in Barcelona, and I am currently a Prisma Music Group voice artist (Sweden). I record with professional studios and I have an equipped home studio too. Challenge me, I'll be happy to make my voice sound the way you're imagining it.

Letní slavnosti staré hudby jsou největším a nejdéle působícím festivalem staré hudby v Praze. Festival je od roku 2000 vstupní branou, jíž do České republiky proudí špičkoví zahraniční interpreti, kteří hrají na originály či kopie historických nástrojů při zachování těch nejvyšších nároků na dokonalost provedení, na něž jsme zvyklí u moderních nástrojů.
