Work, eat, meet, repeat. A record of its own kind, hovering between dystopian reflections and confessional lullabies. Driven by strong lyrics and disrupted by rough heavy distortions and gentle sweeps, Afar dismantles every idea of genre and style. Always present, never in doubt, completed by two fantastic remixes from @Caleesi and @Michael-Mayer-Kompakt. »Rational Ecstasy« is an exceptional journey of unforeseen turning points.

Somewhere Over The Brainbow # 2 - ∆ ƦƟƬƬƩ ∆

“Concerned Burners”, the brittle but punchy opening track of RSS Disco’s album “Mooncake” gets a mind-boggling remix treatment. In charge are Keshavara, the band with the most kaleidoscopic approach to pop music in Germany right now. The result is a song that’s super colorful, funky and full of aural surprises. Music that escapes genre and boundaries - multi layered, frisky and uplifting. 

Track 1: RSS Disco - Concerned Burners (Keshavara Remix)

What a year!

Just when it felt like there was already enough drama going on for a whole century in a tiny decade, things became worse and more confusing by the hour. A sadly too well known Russian dictator started invading Ukraine in early 2022 and as of the years end is not showing signs of retreat. 

The time to not be political has clearly come to an end and so we set out to empathize with our sisters and brothers that have lost their homes, ripped their lives apart and express our condolence to those that have lost their loved ones. There is very little in our power to help, but with this compilation we try to raise at least a little money to help those in need. 

Since we're a record label and not an NGO we decided to forward 100% of the profits to Blindspots e.V., an organisation dedicated to help distribute material donations and evacuate people from embattled cities. You can read more about their work here:

We're thankful to have so many talented artists who are willing to support this cause and hope you will enjoy this colourful spread of musical expression.

Humbly,

Drosssel

Lasch — Appa

Drawing inspiration from nature, the song “Leafhopper” began with an audio sample of the insect whose name inspired the title. Through experimentation and improvisation, the track evolved to incorporate tropical rhythms, jazzy influences, and a strong melodic theme brought to life by Detroit saxophonist, Jake Shadik.

FROM THE ARTIST:
“I'd like to share how I inspired me to create tracks and why Felicette.
Felicette is the first cat to visit space. Electrodes were implanted into her brain to control her condition during the flight. Upon her return, Felicette was taken to CERMA, where she was studied for two-three months.
Unfortunately, she was euthanized to continue her research. This story makes you wonder about the cost of scientific advancement, and how we treat animals in their quest for new knowledge.
I wish her name was never forgotten first release will be dedicated to her
that's why my
All tracks belong to space theme.
We just have to wait for the full release
Thank you @kosa.musica for supporting my idea. The album photo depicts my cat and @tar.jak And thanks to the guys @pangolea, @tagahma for the remixes”

VOS 007
Jiony shares an exotic voyage blending in a variety of elements that create a rhythmic cadency. It is complemented by melancholic melodies to form a dark but jazzy atmosphere.

Jiony is the co-founder of a Mexico City based label VAA. There’s a certain diversity from which Jiony’s music takes place - from nu-jazz to tango, going through trip hop, funk and sometimes cumbia. His live acts are multifaceted. In its simplest version, he plays live sets using an APC controller, and also adds instruments and live looping - even a complete band.

"His contribution to the musical world ranges from his own productions extracted from his guts to improvisation sessions that challenge the performer." Thump

A Voyage of Spirits by Jiony ⚗ VOS 007

Ahau & Arkay Koo were called by the jungle and gifted to hear and to retain its sounds. In Paoyhàn, Loreto Peru, where the Ucayali River flows, it’s where their story begins.
The retrieved sounds, chants, and stories were transformed into magical music. 
With the release „Sonidos del Amazonas“ Ahau & Arkay Koo would like to draw the attention back to its origins: The Jungle. 
Families are forced to flee from the jungle, to study and to adapt to the society far away from it, leaving mother Nature with less guardians and further giving more freedom to the industry to salvage her. Mining, deforestation and palm tree harvests are the biggest hazards, that the precious jungle has to face.
Giving away a part of their winnings of this release, they are establishing an example, that we all should follow.
Safe mother Nature and its wonderful miracles, that we so often forget!

Ahau & Arkay Koo - Kambó (Original Mix)

Ritual music for people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

As one of the founders of Voodoohop, Thomash has sparked innovation on the electronic scene. Through his multidisciplinary art collective he has caused great impact on the Brazilian underground music scene which over the years caused waves internationally. South american elements mixed with contemporary electronica are the essence of his work creating the feeling of being in a comfortable psychedelic dream.

Guided by a hedonistic attitude that stimulates individual and joint freedom of expression, his sound is a clever and unpretentious mix that combines slow melodic techno, krautrock, synthesizer layers, psychedelia, dub and ritualistic tropical rhythms.

Born in Germany, he lived in Brazil for 10 years which allowed him to absorb the exotic multicultural latin roots and combine them with the precision and minimalism of german electronic music.

Curiously, he also has a degree in artificial intelligence, which allows Thomash to create
a unique style full of oddly spaced percussion and detuned synthesizers working within their own logic, as if in a machine-learning universe.

Using his programming skills he developed tools that allow him to harmonically mix acoustic samples with live synthesizers and drum sequencers resulting in a unique hybrid between live and dj set that is always pulsing, changing and evolving.

Previous gigs include tours to Japan, South America, the USA, Canada and festivals such as  Sónar São Paulo, Melt! and Fusion, Lethargy and Wiener Festwochen..
