SYSTEM108 PODCAST 019: RAMBAL COCHET

Next up on Calypso, Aristidez takes us on journey dipped in Peruvian culture through the streets of his hometown of Lima.

Rumbling tribal percussions and ricocheting vocals, harmony and rhythm, light and darkness all come together with the chaos and spirituality of the country which permeate the tracks. “Nada Nada” is the kind of mantra that gets people through the morning in cities of grey and clouds, “Reyerta” is a nod to the rough conditions of Latin American cities going through hard times and the third original track “Evoca” is a blend of the two, the rupture point where peace and violence meet in a cathartic release of energy.

On the other side of the planet, russian jokesters Simple Symmetry amp the tempo up with their remix of “Nada Nada”, prodding at the unanswerable with their question: what happens after death?

Aristidez is the co-founder and curator of the much loved Casalocasa parties which have brought the likes of Matias Aguayo, Hunee, Ron Morelli, Kim Ann Foxman, Jacques Renault, Manfredas, Thomas Von Party, Hugo Capablanca, Fabrizio Mammarella and many more to Lima since 2012.

With Casalocasa, Aristidez has emerged as an important figure in the Lima scene. An increasingly busy touring schedule has seen him perform across Latin America, in the like of Videoclub in Bogota, Calle 9+1 in Medellin and Mono or M.N. Roy in Mexico City. His remixing skills have been called upon by Markus Gibb and his productions have landed on Mexican label Disque Discos, Peruvian imprint Discos Aquelarre and a Café del Mar compilation.

PREMIERE : Aristidez - Nada Nada

In this first days of 2019 we have the fantastic new track from Discos Capablanca's Golpe De Estado - 'Liquido'...
When we say 'new' this is a track which has existed in some shape or form for a decade, a production from Hugo Capablanca and Oklo Gabon was reportedly rejected from a label for being too weird.  A decade on Marc Piñol heard the track, was blown away by it and asked Hugo to remix it.
The result is a shonky New York influenced lo intensity houser chock full of live instrumentation.  Bongos, sax, flute and freejazz which would not sound out of place in a Kenny Dope or Louie Vega set, think Nu Yorcian Soul remade in the Catalan and you are somewhere near close, but not close enough. 
Do yourself a favour, hit play melt away.

PREMIERE | Golpe De Estado - Liquido (Marc Piñol Remix) [Discos Capablanca] 2019

DJ Sundae says about this mix that «there’s nothing special about it, except that I really enjoyed doing it.». We’d like to maintain that it’s certainly special to us. With a span of just under an hour, the mix is perfectly balanced: A deep dive into the mind of one of France’s most dedicated record collectors and DJs. DJ Sundae has just released the superb Alexis Le Tan proto-trance compilation on his label Idle Press. Together with fellow Frenchman Julien Dechery, he compiled «Sky Girl», a bewitching éducation sentimentale of heartbroken soul and ethereal folk. Be sure to check out DJ Sundae’s monthly show on NTS with Cosmo Vitelli.

Soulection Radio Show #395 ft. J.Rocc (Dilla Tribute)

B1 - Controlling Transmission

C3 - Bring Back The Light (Part3)

D1 - Lush  E-Motion

"A Brand New City portrays an out of body experience, a sleepwalk through imaginary streets and utopian spaces. It was both inspired by Raymond Scott's lullabies for babies and Cosmo's frequent insomnias."

Berlin-based DJ, producer and label head of I'm A Cliche Cosmo Vitelli fuses elements of krautrock, pop and post-punk on the four track record and exhibits a maturity in his production, a reflection of his inventive studio work since moving to the German capital two years ago. The first single from the LP to be released is opener 'A Brand New City', his collaborative effort with Fantastic Twins.

Holiday in Panikstrasse Pt. 1

PREMIERE: Cosmo Vitelli Feat. Fantastic Twins - A Brand New City [Malka Tuti]

Cosmo Vitelli hasn’t slept since 1973. Instead, he’s replaced slumber with the tireless exploration of electronic music, sharing his finds as an accomplished DJ and label manager as well as an esteemed producer, with heaps of records, remixes and edits under his belt. With his upcoming two-part LP on Malka Tuti, Cosmo brings forward his more diverse and somehow mature musical side, combining elements of post-punk, krautrock, electronica and pop on this first of 2 four-track records.
The premiered track "Die Alraune" we find Cosmo collaborating with Sebastian Lee Philipp (of Die Wilde Jagd fame) to show his more post-rock/krautrock side.

PRÈMIÉRE: Cosmo Vitelli - "Die Alraune" (feat. Sebastian Lee Philipp)[Malka Tuti]

The alarm rang loudly, reverberating on the wooden bedside table. A sliver of sunlight crept through the curtains casting a bright strip of light across the room. She hit the clock beside her with a huge thwack knocking it off the table and on to the floor. A loud sigh left her lips; the morning was her least favourite time of day. She scrunched her eyes as she hiked herself up and made a move towards the window. The light poured in to the room as she drew the curtains back. It was time to ease into it.

Formally operating as Sage, All City Records affiliate Lee Kelly has shed his former guise in favour of his birth name for his forthcoming EP. Layers Of Identity marks the eighth release on the First Second Label, a sub label of Dublin's All City, following releases from DJ OK, Minimal Violence and Der Opium Queen. Across five tracks he works with shimmering synths, at times introducing broken drum work, claps and crisp snares, for a release that evokes a real sense of nostalgia.

PREMIERE: Lee Kelly - Ezzzz Into It [First Second Label]

Hailing from London, Sean Johnston is one half of the infamous "A Love From Outer Space" duo alongside Andrew Weatherall and also part of Hardway Bros.

Last month he finally released some new music under the moniker of "A Mountain Of Rimowa" on american label 2MR. (avail here ==> https://amountainofrimowa.bandcamp.com/album/a-mountain-of-rimowa )
Nothing but pure fire in that mix !

Jennifer Cardini - 11 November 2019

MACRO M59: https://macrorec.bandcamp.com/album/veiki

'Veiki' is a foray onto new rhythmic ground for machine-based dance music. While its sounds appear firmly grounded in contemporary techno, its pulse is neither based on the 4/4 tradition nor on the breakbeat continuum. The metres employed here are distinctly asymmetric – i.e. they never add up to binary entities. With patterns of 7, 9 or 11, they offer possibilities for dislocating the centre of gravity in ways not available to binary rhythmic fare. Thus this may represent one of the few systematic efforts to move slamming machine techno onto an alternative rhythmic foundation: Real broken beat.

In the mix: Veiki

Dawn had broken and the sun was beginning to rise beyond the hills. Burning reds and ambers illuminated the countryside; a natural wake up call for the inhabitants of the area, who were few and far between. Here, the skyscrapers, the cars and the whirring sirens of the city were a distant thought, almost an unimaginable reality. The farmer looked out over his land and smiled; this was his livelihood, his santuary, his whole lifes work. He'd never known any different...

In 2015 German group Die Wilde Jagd released their second body of work into the world in the form of Morgenrot. The group have forged their own brand of heady new wave and kraut, through blending live instrumentation and electronics. Minimood have picked up the track as part of their multidisciplinary fusion series and secured a strong horde of producers to put their own spin on the track. The remix package is incredibly varied from the fast paced, club-focused reimaginations of Rude 66 and Ancient Methods to floaty, ethereal and downtempo reworks from Roman Flugel, Steve Bug and Fangschuss.
