FARMERS - Yaar Kahlon (prod. Sznny)

A reworking of David Hasselhoff's 1990 recording of 'Freedom For The World' written by Paul Anka.
Made in response to the continued COVID lockdowns and government control in Melbourne, Australia.

FREEDOM FOR THE WORLD [COVID LOCKDOWN PROTEST] (2021)

Liberté !

Voordat de coronacrisis alle aandacht opeiste waren de boeren een prominent en terugkerend thema in het maatschappelijk debat, zo ook in deze podcast. Of het nu ging om stikstof of dierenwelzijn, de meningen waren doorgaans even fel als verdeeld.

Recentelijk werden zij wederom het middelpunt van de aandacht toen uitlekte dat er verregaande plannen bestaan om Nederlandse boeren te onteigenen. Voor Sven aanleiding om de problematiek rondom het onderwerp eens opnieuw te behandelen, want voor hem staat de boerenstand als laatste écht gewortelde groep in de samenleving symbool voor de menselijkheid die in het huidige tijdsgewricht zo ernstig bedreigd wordt.

De Nachtwacht (Unmute Us)

Power

Taken from This is What Europe Sounds Like (The Battleground Sounds, 2021), by Joel Schalit. Mastered by Raz Mesinai.

1. Arab Refugee Chant. Berlin, March 2016.

This is the torso version of "Live at Occupy Wall Street 2011-2012" a longer work which deploys sound (unedited, homopolyphonic, oracular) to examine social, material, and utopian paths towards a just society.

Much like my first cycle of protest "symphonies" (N30: Live at the WTO Protest 1999, Two Secret Wars, et al.), this work blends the pertinent sonic materials of social change: topical field recordings, combative audio, earwitness testimony, and other oracular sonic documents.

You will hear sonic phenomena not usually heard in music, film soundtracks, or live performance:

- "The People's Microphone" is the human repetition and acoustic amplification of announcements designed to contravene New York's onerous noise ordinances. It is one of the few sounds to reveal space and depth vividly in an urban soundscape.

- Cooperative non-synchronous performance which includes marching rhythms out of sync due to distance or ongoing movement (Charles Ives would have been delighted!) as well as autonomous chants and verbal exclamations by simultaneously present protesters. This seemingly random convergence and divergence is reminiscent of orchestral intermissions.

- Urban soundscape of wide dynamic range and timbre: Sounds of protest fuse with what we expect to hear in the urban soundscape such as car horns, vehicles zipping by, road noise, fleeting conversations, etc.

Disparate yet concurrent performance abilities: Drummers and chanters of varying abilities and levels of attention rarely conform to predictable, song-like structures or established expectations of musical technique. As with primal societies, the physical space and unique context shape the performance unpredictably.

This work also embodies aspects of phonography, which:

- Does not conform to established, commercially driven ideas of "quality," technique," "fidelity," and subject matter.

- Liberates the forbidden elements of field recording including mic handling, hiss, narrow frequency response, distorted proximity effect, haphazard directionality, drop-outs, device self-noise, glitchy edits.

- Erodes the erroneous idea that recordings objectively represent one "reality."

- Employs varied and varying recording fidelities expands the palette of procedures and techniques and deploys various and sometimes multiple microphones and recording equipment

- Affirms the inevitable influence (and presence) of the recordist and recording equipment both in the field and in the studio

Live at Occupy Wall St 2011-2012 torso version

Words of Colour & Bristol Libraries present a panel discussion on the theme Politics, Power & Protest, with Muneera Pilgrim & special guests
(Please scroll down for links, including reading recommendations)

Based on the theme of  Power, Protest and Politics in the  BBC 100 Novels That Shaped Our World longlist, 'Power, Protest & Poetry' was a series of online literary events  with international poet Muneera Pilgrim, encouraging participants to create works in response to the books and our times. 

In this podcast episode, we share with you the final event, 'Power, Protest & Poetry: The Bristol Edition'. It took place online, on Thursday 8th April 2021, and was a panel discussion on the theme Politics, Power & Protest with Heather from Words of Colour (see description below), Muneera Pilgrim (see bio below), and special guest Colin Ward, from the Bristol Radical History Group (https://www.brh.org.uk). There was also a reading of selected poems from the workshops, plus a special performance from Muneera Pilgrim. 

What does it mean to have witnessed the pulling down of the Colston Statue, and the 'Kill The Bill' protests? What does it mean to live in one of the most segregated cities in the country? If you were given a platform, what would you write?

By its nature, this discussion was more political than our usual content, so just to remind you that any opinions expressed here are not those of Bristol Libraries, but rather the views of whoever was speaking.

Muneera Pilgrim is a Bristol born international Poet, Cultural Producer, Writer, Broadcaster and TEDx speaker. She co-founded the Muslim Hip-Hop and spoken word duo Poetic Pilgrimage, and she is a co-founder of Black Muslim Women Bike. 
She regularly contributes to BBC 2’s Pause for Thought, she is a community artist with In Between Time, and alumni associate artist with The English Touring Theatre where she is writing her first play. Muneera’s first full poetry collection will be released late 2021 with Burning Eye books.
Muneera has written for The Guardian, Amaliah, Huffington Post, The Independent, Al Jazeera, Black Ballard and various other platforms. She has been featured across the BBC network, as well as Sky News, Sky Arts, and Al Jazeera. In 2015 a documentary about her former group Poetic Pilgrimage was commissioned by Al Jazeera, “Hip-Hop Hijabis has been screened several times since.

#17 "Power, Protest & Poetry: The Bristol Edition" with Words Of Colour & Muneera Pilgrim

Give Me My Life Back!

Under Our Only Sun - (scratch demo)

My heart beats time with the waves on the beach
feet feel cool with the forest underneath 
rock of the mountain puts strength in my bones
My breath flows strong like the winds that blow

Take a break from the towers and the city streets
Skip a stone for me when you’re playing by the sea
Count every grain of sand that slips through your hand
when your fires burn low  remember if you can

When we see the world as it was meant to be 
without its flags and power, we’ll come together united as one, for our finest hour 
Voices across every nation getting louder and louder
Under our only sun, fires are burning from every watchtower

How can we stand up fight for a cause 
If everything thing you try just breaks the law
We can all fall victim to the same illusion
That we’re somehow removed, that we’re only human

Seek the hand of a brother you haven’t met
Give them some love they’ll never forget 
If you find yourself in the middle of the chaos
Have some faith that the whole damn thing ain't lost

When we see the world as it was meant to be 
without its flags and power, 
we’ll come together united as one, for our finest hour 
Voices across every nation getting louder and louder
Under our only sun, fires are burning from every watchtower

Light a fire, raise your voice, take the torch, you have a choice
