Drifting Clouds [Gang of Ducks]

Three months after the release of Vuelo Nocturno, Umoja has solicited from their contemporaries for an elaborate project: Vuelo Nocturno Remix EP. This time the gloves are truly off; genre categorization is non- existent, reinterpretation of the original works is their sole aim. 

Staying true to their mantra of ‘Unity’, the sunshine duo have elicited remixes from the likes of Prace, Oby Nine, El Búho, Bleepolar, Dany F, Deela and Signs Of Ignorance - all phenomenal artist-producers in their own right. Vuelo Nocturno Remix as a body of work is substantially varied in style, arrangement and composition. The EP takes on a conventional approach with each producer responding to a musical idea instigated by Umoja. 

Vuelo Nocturno Remix EP is INI Movement’s 13th release out on all major online music platforms as of 2nd December 2013.

Umoja - La Piragua (Safari Utrecht Remix)

For the first time in more than a decade, Paul St. Hilaire (AKA Tikiman) presents a solo album – 100% Tiki. 

Over his 30-plus year career, St. Hilaire has become one of dance music’s quietly legendary figures. Born and raised in the Caribbean island Dominica, he moved to Berlin in 1994 and has lent both his voice and his musicianship to some of the most iconic electronic music from the German capital – and beyond. Renowned for his collaborations with Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus (AKA Rhythm & Sound), he has also appeared on records with Deadbeat, Rhauder, Larry Heard aka Mr. Fingers and Stereotyp (G-Stone Recordings), amongst others. 

However, few know the extent of St. Hilaire’s compositional and technical mastery. From his home studio in Kreuzberg, which includes an extensive collection of vintage hardware, self-built instruments and notebooks scribbled with endless lyrics, he has created a vast archive of material spanning ambient dub, avant-jazz, lush techno and lovers rock. 

Tikiman Vol. 1 is a heady, downtempo tour de force of patois metaphors on education, displacement and personal vs. global histories, as is evident on slippy album opener “Bedroom in My Bag”: Mister, mister / Where are you going? / I’m heading for a faraway land / What are you having in the bag in your hand? / Help us to understand / He said, I’ve got my bedroom in my bag. 

Overall, the album’s lyrics reflect on life between Berlin and Dominica, specifically St. Hilaire’s hometown of Grand Bay, where he has worked with various musicians famous for the island’s different genres of carnival music. St. Hilaire himself always favoured the island’s more “discrete” music, developing a sonic synergy between two different geographical strains of groove and minimalism, and combining them with foundational Caribbean mixing techniques, which provide the basis for his songwriting and distinct baritone. 

Tikiman Vol.1 offers a rare insight into St. Hilaire’s complex artistry, from the eyes-down grooves of “Little Way” and the guitar-heavy digi dancehall experiment “Keep Safe,” to the subtle hypnosis of “Ten to One” and the softly crashing synth waves of closer “Three and a Half”, evoking not only beaches but also coasts and borders. It’s a fitting expression of both the breadth of St. Hilaire’s work, as well as his history as one of the few black, Berlin-based artists who, despite remaining largely overlooked, has influenced the city’s electronic music culture since its beginnings.

Kynant Records was founded in 2015 by Richard Akingbehin, a British-Nigerian radio programmer (Refuge Worldwide), music writer and DJ. Originally specialising in deep techno and featuring artists such as Cio D’Or, Terrence Dixon and Donato Dozzy, Kynant has since launched a sub-label Kynant EX which focuses on ambient, dub and experimental electronics.

A1 Track of my latest record for Berlin based @nummer .
This one is really new actually, just done last year. Most of the drum sounds are synthesized which I'm quite happy about...otherwise what can I say, it's an Amphibian lair kind of vibe, hope you dig it. (:

Marco Shuttle - Ritmo Elegante 
Spazio Disponibile (Spazio019) 12"
release date: 20 Jan 2020

marcoshuttle.bandcamp.com/album/ritmo-elegante

Marco Shuttle is very much part of the Spazio Disponibile label family: he's put out his Systhema album and various EPs with Donato Dozzy and Neel in the last couple of years, and now the Eerie boss serves up more of his immersive techno excellence.

He starts off in slow motion, with the roomy ambiance and slightly spooky dub of 'Ritmo Elegante.' Of course it's a track carefully filled with little sonic details that make it a very real place to be. 'Arpex' then switches things up with a super urgent, super supple acidic techno rhythm thats overlaid with a widescreen arp that sapiens space and time, and 'Stairway To The Milky Way' is a half time stepper though some trippy sci-fi jungle before 'Qatarsi' rides on a floating groove as sound effects pan all around you and traps you in a state of trance. These are expressive, hard to define and excellent electronics once again from Marco Shuttle.

On Board Music follows on from its debut compilation with The Meaning Of Time Pt II. This edition comprises seventeen tracks spanning a global range of scenes and musical styles, a sonic document of this unique time. In true On Board style, the music finds a thread amongst the deepest realms of techno and ambient. We are grateful to the inspiring artists involved, some regulars to the label and some new names. 50% of the proceeds will be donated to Sea Watch, in aid of the important work they do conducting migrant rescue operations in the Mediterranean Sea.
