Acid Paui and I had so  much fun recording this cover of Springsteen's I'm on Fire.  Acid Pauli  then mashed  it with Lake Powel's stunning "Bright Eyes Dirty Hair" as he mixed his Get Lost 5 compilation.  A tune ever present in my sets this year. 

Lake Powel,  "Bight Eyes, Dirty Hair" and "I'm On Fire" feat. Eduardo Castillo

Psalms 131

Packed with detail and carried by dreamy guitar riffs Billy Caso's (@billy-caso) brilliant interpratation of Ninze's (@ninze) 'Old Chap' unfolds very quickly and paints images of a forgotten, distant wildernis.

Stavroz - Talabout EP (LUL009)

∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿∿

Waking up in the middle of the night, feeling the gentle touch of moss on your bare skin and overwhelmed by the eery yet calming atmosphere of unknown surroundings. A location no one ever goes to, a destination unreachable by common means, but a place blurring the lines between having a dream and a state of mind. Welcome to Talabout.  

Stavroz managed to create a wholesome, comforting soundtrack for a place, which no words can describe. Take a rest, lay down, close your eyes and listen to a story told in an orchestral fashion, with such profession and ear for details like Luise never heard before. We are deeply impressed and thankful alike to be able to present this musical masterpiece. A heartly welcome to Stavroz, everyone.

Album Description: 

Terminal Caribe is the newest album of Santi & Tuğçe who weave timeless, borderless melodies with global, dance floor rhythms. Similar to their previous releases which take listeners on a sonic adventure all the way from the coasts of the Black Sea to the Parana River, Terminal Caribe presents a peculiarly personal, yet undoubtedly universal odyssey exploring the deep interrelations between music, movement, and memory. Named after a bus stop where the duo had the initial inkling for this album, Terminal Caribe serves as the point of departure for an entrancing journey through a wildly varied world of sound. Soulful melodies, captivating harmonies, colorful orchestration, polyrhyhmic percussions and marimbas, and deep bass lines combine with heartwarming vocals and the sounds of sea to tell a tale that is at once epic, melancholic, spacy and irresistibly groovy. 

Santi (from Asunción, Paraguay) and Tuğçe (from Istanbul, Turkey) left their homes to follow their dreams of music and have been road companions and musical partners for more than a decade. They collaborated on two full length-albums, four EPs and numerous singles which captivated listeners worldwide. With their 2016 EP El Regreso del Gallito, “Santi & Tuğçe rewrote Paraguayan folklore” (Thump Vice, Brazil) and with their Songs for My Grandmother, selected as one of the best albums from Turkey in 2017 by Beehype, they remade Turkish classics for contemporary audiences. Drawing on their eclectic background and constant pulse for innovation, Santi & Tuğçe once again reinvent an unpredictable and enticing soundscape of the Caribbean and beyond.

No Return - Lyrics:

Time to leave this island again 
Our ceaseless search for new shores began 
Like many restless wanderers before 
Who reached this land with a thirst for more 
We longed for water to grow our budding hearts 
Knowing our time has come, we lovingly depart 

Many days we stumbled along 
Many waves we rode alone 
Many nights we pondered upon 
Distant sands to build a dream on 
Like many restless wanderers before 
Who reached this land with a thirst for more 
We longed for water to grow our budding hearts 
Knowing our time has come, we lovingly depart 

Many days we stumbled along 
Many waves we rode alone 
If you ask “why tell me this”, allow me to explain 
I don’t need no sympathy, but I do want a friend 
Like many restless wanderers before 
Who reached this land with a thirst for more 
We longed for water to grow our budding hearts 
Knowing our time has come, we lovingly depart

DESCRIPTION:
Every song has a story to tell. This song tells the story of the wind, the breath of the universe. The wind is elusive and full of mysteries. No one knows where she comes from, where she is going or what she brings. In these volatile times that we live, we dedicate this song to trees whose breath nourishes our world.

All proceeds from this track will go to 8 Billion Trees Foundation that plants trees and rescues animals around the world, especially in the Amazon and whose mission is to "change the world one tree at a time".

LYRICS:
Ella no precisa preguntar
Ni pedir permiso al llegar
Tiene secretos, nadie sabrá

Cuando pasa tiembla el matorral
Y el bosque no sabe olvidar
Los tallos recios, se quebraran

Suena por el mar, llanura, arboleda, río
Moldeando serranías al sonar
Suena por el mar, llanura, arboleda, río
Moldeando cataratas al sonar

Santi & Tuğçe - Respira (KYBELE Records)

I really enjoyed to work with this velvet voice and his soulful brazilian guitar, amazing musician @castellobranco from Rio De Janeiro. Our new single came out 5th of June with 22nd catalogue number from my own record label @kanto_records

I would be honoured to dedicate this song to global solidarity against racism and it’s last iconic trigger George Floyd. I wish this flame brings us to the better world, without corrupted fascists governments, without inequivalent human and animal rights.
