It is our pleasure to announce an exciting collaboration born out of the resounding success of UMAY and BASHKKA's iconic EP, "Maktub." Together, we are thrilled to unveil the culmination of BASHKKA's initial vision: the release of a meticulously crafted vinyl edition, complete with fresh and iconic remixes courtesy of some of her closest comrades and confidants.

Ever since its electrifying debut in February, "Maktub'' and its mesmerizing title track, 'Act Bad,' have set dance floors ablaze across the globe. This explosive track earned the esteemed title of Top Summer Hit from Germany's venerable Groove Magazine, leaving us with no choice but to bestow upon it the grand physical manifestation it so rightly deserves. This offering is tailor-made for the discerning vinyl aficionados, dedicated collectors, and music connoisseurs who have fervently championed both this release and the incomparable talent of BASHKKA throughout the year. Graciously funded by the generous support of Initiative Musik, we have not only breathed life into this iconic release but have also empowered BASHKKA to co-direct her very first music video, in collaboration with the visionary director Valentin Noujaim, based in Copenhagen.

Within the grooves of this vinyl masterpiece, you will discover four exquisite remixes thoughtfully crafted by BASHKKA's esteemed friends: Roza Terenzi, Hyperaktivist, Sedef Adasi, and Akua. This illustrious ensemble perfectly encapsulates the essence of the project—an impassioned homage to the tight-knit community of allies and pioneering femme leaders who remain steadfast in their mission to challenge prevailing industry norms and dismantle the barriers that have long hindered marginalized communities' path to success. As each contributor works tirelessly on their own endeavors, they collectively construct vital support systems that foster sustainable growth and uplift those in need within our midst.
With an exceptional team standing firmly in our corner, we eagerly anticipate unveiling a treasure trove of delightful surprises that this release promises to deliver. Stay tuned for tantalizing hints and immerse yourself in the tangible embodiment of BASHKKA's iconic creation. This limited edition vinyl will be available from Friday, October 13th.

Thanks to everyone involved, from production, direction, helping, creating, advising and compiling. We further extend our heartfelt gratitude to Initiative Musik for their generous support in making this dream a reality.

your destiny is revealed"

In a time beyond time when the boundaries between dimensions were screamed louder than a
cosmic loom, the entities Property and si’nedd emerged into existence. They were forces of
nature, not bound by physical laws but intertwined with universal essence. Property, the
embodiment of structure and form, was the stabilizing force in a world of chaos, while si’nedd, a
radiant entity of light and potential, sparked a dynamic touch. The people of the land, who lived
in the vast plains of Feld and the sun-drenched deserts of Liwa, watched in awe, coining this
phenomenon the shining regeneration of renewal and unity, all in accordance with the 8th
hexagonic chapter of this endless belief.

Today, the power unleashed in their encounters reverberates through the fabric of reality,
causing ripples that can heal. The wise ones of the ancient world, adepts of the I'Ching, are fully
aware of this feat. Consulting in the sacred texts of I’Ching, we begin to understand the
necessity to Unite, to bring forces together in harmony rather than to conflict. Not everyone has
to understand the intensity of Property and si’nedd's connection. In the quiet village of Adevo,
nestled between the mountains of Belan and the forests of Skai, the people experience both
Dolor and Noxa—pain and harm—when forces are unbalanced.

There – the nearby fields, the Ventu winds blow gently, Onie flowers are blooming, symbols of
hope and healing, whispering that with unity comes the potential for the construction of the great
temple of Belan.

As the cycle of encounters continues, the villagers begin to understand the deeper rhythm of the
book. They realized that the union of Property and si’nedd isnot merely an event but a
process—a weaving of existence that neither begins nor ends with the measurement of time.
The wise leader we call Somni, slides in to remind us of the following teaching we hold so dear
to our hearts: "We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern which was weaving
when the sun went down is weaving when it comes up tomorrow." With this, the people of
Adevo, Liwa, and beyond now embrace the blend of creation and destruction.

We open our eyes –

In the heart of Adevo, within the temple of Belan, there stands a mysterious mirror, said to
reflect not just the physical form but the very soul of those who gaze into it. Yes, you – yes, me.
This mirror is believed to hold the secrets of unity, for when two stood before it, their reflections
would merge, revealing a single, harmonious entity. We are reminded that "holding together
means uniting," a principle that is echoed in the teachings of the 8th hexagram. It has been said
that only through true unity can the forces of Property and Si’nedd be balanced on a string of
harmonic madness –
In moments when life moves quickly and the pace of existence is overwhelmed by threats, the
mirror offers a stillness, urging those who look into it to slow down.

"The way does not speak," the elders whisper, "but in its silence, it guides." It is in this quietude,
this space of reflection, that the villagers are discovering their inner guidance, learning to
navigate the complexities of life by holding together, united in purpose and spirit, even as the
world around them swirls with the chaos of change – or rather, the Book of Change.
