Journey Across the Continent Fanfare 132 Eb M

MARTINIQUE

In the 1800s, millions of people walked, rode, and sailed across vast distances. It’s unimaginable for a modern person to imagine it taking many months just to cross a continent, or to sail to somewhere There were issues we don’t think about today: food, water, and survival. I especially imagine how close everyone got who traveled together. In a way, it’s just like a wind ensemble and the friends you make there and the lives that get changed. Journey Across the Continent invites you to imagine how it felt to walk, sail, or ride, day after day, and to finally reach your destination. This work commemorates all of those people of the past and their stories. PS. I hope you find your destination in life too!

Journey Across the Continent

Ça vous chante un remix Ska Punk pacifiste de la Marseillaise ?

--

Pour tous les enfants de la terre
Chantons amour et liberté
Contre toutes les haines et les guerres
L'étendard d'espoir est levé
L'étendard de justice et de paix
Rassemblons nos forces, notre courage
Pour vaincre la misère et la peur
Que règnent au fond de nos cœurs
L'amitié, la joie et le partage

La flamme qui nous éclaire
Traverse les frontières
Partons, partons, amis, solidaires
Marchons vers la lumière

Big Band Boogie - Kees Vlak

Sinfonie Concertante
The famous pioneer of original Dutch wind music realised in the early fifties that the wind band had no classical repertoire at all. He thought this shortage should be completed with original compositions instead of transcriptions and arrangements. This little symphony was an immediate success and still belongs to the repertoire of many bands. We thought it was high time to publish a new edition with a full score.

Sinfonie Concertante - Gerard Boedijn

The first single for an upcoming EP coming out Summer 2025!

Brighter Side of Darkness

1995 found the three Bruce brothers on holiday in Es Mal Pas. Their hotel patrona came with a message that there was a phone call for ‘los tres moretones’... Some confusion ensued; ‘the three bruises’? Finally, the penny dropped.

The 10th vinyl release on Tokyo/HK-based label Palms & Charms comes from three brothers; label founders Barnaby and Samuel Bruce (AKA Canebrake), joined by brother Max Bruce (AKA Max Essa). All three brothers have been making music for decades, but somehow this is the first time they’ve written and produced original music as a trio.

Side A of the 7” features the original version of A Lo Hecho, Pecho; a chugging, percussive celebration, with a joyous horn line. On Side B, the El Triángulo Remix, courtesy of Quinn Lamont Luke, builds beautifully from hushed synth-pads-at-dawn, through bubbling percussion, to dubbed out trumpet-from-beyond.

Finally, the digital release comes with a bonus remix: the Dominic Dawson Dub Flex. Mr Dawson works his dub magic, to create an immense dubby chugger of epic proportions. A Lo Hecho, Pecho; stick out your chest when faced with adversity; in other words, don’t cry over spilt milk :-)

Mani Schmah is a Franco-Gabonese music producer, beatmaker and the creator of Electropical — a vibrant fusion of electronic music and tropical rhythms. His sound blends rare samples, tribal percussion, organic textures and hypnotic grooves, offering a sonic journey across continents and eras.
A self-taught artist with a passion for digging and reworking, Mani started by flipping old funk, afro and bossa nova tracks into fresh and powerful edits. His remixes and original compositions quickly caught attention on social media, where he shares his creative process with humor and authenticity.
His breakout track "Figue de Guinée", a smooth and sunny bossa nova-inspired anthem, has surpassed 3 million streams on Spotify, becoming a defining piece of the Electropical movement.
With the album SAWASSA, Mani deepened the exploration - sampling vintage African songs from Meiway, DJ Arafat and Awilo Longomba, while showcasing traditional instruments like the Kenyan harp and the Bwiti bow from Gabon.
The result is a raw and colorful tribute to African heritage, blended with modern electronic vibes.
Driven by a desire to make people dance and connect, Mani has performed in bars, clubs and music events in Gabon, Israel and France, bringing his unique sound to the underground scene.
Now he keeps expanding the world of Electropical — a genre full of bass, soul and sun.

Solare unifies in his person -and his esthetic- diverse tensions: contemporary music and tango argentino, South and North, composition and performance... The stylistic elements of his musical Oeuvre include a tendency to aphoristic, a quote of unbribable melancholy, a dose of irony and humor (related to the surrealistic absurd), and an aspiration towards sublimity. Solare considers that art music and light music are not irreconcilable extremes, but poles in a force field, and moves himself comfortably between both points with a very personal "musical bilingualism". In Solare's Work, these differences can -may- coexist without contradictions.

Focus on the brighter side of darkness.

I'm just a public servant who likes to explore music, connect with different artists and make mixtapes on my free time. 

The pandemic forced me to find some creative to do to stay sane. So I got a Denon Prime Go in quarantine, started putting tracks together, and here we are.

I love jazz, funk, disco, City Pop, wave music, anything cool, futuristic, chill and up beat. House head since the 00's. Future Funk freak since 2017. 

Thanks for checking me out, and welcome to Nite Patrol. Hope I can get you to dance. 😎🌙
