"Without strong indigenous life, cultural life, foreign domination cannot be sure of its perpetuation"  – Amilcar Cabral
 
NıCOLETTı AUDIO's second release is a sound piece that Sandra Jean-Pierre produced to accompany the group exhibition 'not before it has forgotten you' (Apr–May 2022), curated by Caroline Drevait and Estelle Marois.
 
With extracts from tv commercials for skin whitening soap, France 24 channel, and an excerpt from the show "I love Lucy", Jean-Pierre's sound work reflects on the disappearance of a strong 'indigenous cultural life' (Amilcar Cabral). Using Marasa methodology, the work is based on an excerpt of Rasheed Araeen's essay, 'Preliminary notes for a Black Manifesto' (1978, 1), as well as musical interludes drawn from Mati Diop's film 'Atlantiques' (2009). 
(1) Audio recording produced by Metroland Gallery.
 
Sandra Jean-Pierre is an artist and curator, co-founder of Marasa Tapes, whose main aim is to provide a space for artists and researchers whose work addresses issues of power imbalance, the colonial fracture within systems of representation in art and culture, intersectionality, strategies of resistance, appropriation, reappropriation, retribution, utopias and parallel worlds.

NıCOLETTı AUDıO 2: SANDRA JEAN-PIERRE, UNTITLED, 2022

Living Room n°42 ~ @joelod

q. pls introduce yourself

I’m Joel, I’m from Aveiro, Portugal and I work as web developer. I’m passionate about discovering music from any genre, specially artists from different decades that were overlooked in their time.

q. is there a story behind the mix?

I wanted to do something that I felt it was a good addition to the great Living Room catalog. So I had the idea to pay tribute to the late 00s and early 10s ambient/drone cassette culture. So you can expect a very warm, lo-fi and sometimes psychedelic mood.

q. what's the best way enjoy your mix?

I would say either with headphones or speakers, on a calm Saturday morning, with a nice breeze coming through the window.

q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

Probably my turntable, a vintage Philips 212 that my father restored with solid wood. It’s very modest but looks nice and works like brand new.

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

After moving this year, I’m finally building a small workshop + studio to do some crafts and record some music. I’ve recorded a few things in the past, mostly guitar based ambient, nothing too serious, and I’m looking forward to start again where I left.  

I also make regular mixes Rádio Paranóia, taking also care of the radio website.

Living Room n°42 ~ joel od

MBE Series founder Giovanni Napolano continues his research of the Mediterranean, offering up his own personal Porta Del Mediterraneo.

Unfolding along two sprawling 15 min sides, Napolano stitches threads of chopped & screwed folksong with a discrete dub strategy, seamlessly leading the mind down labyrinthine ginnels of his imagination in a sort of uchronic regression session where the ghosts of the past inform the present. In the process it humbly speaks to Naples’ position at the frontier of the current migrant crisis, and necessarily takes a standpoint against Italy’s resurgent, nationalist fascism, revealing the beauty and energy of its indigenous mixture of peoples, rather than erecting borders between them. 

Taking his native Naples as a locus of Mediteranean culture, Napolano plunges the port city’s palimpsest of energies embedded by successive waves of Greek, Northern African & Eastern migration to discover an underlying, rhizomic connection and commonality linked by dub and hip hop as a contemporary iteration of folk music. 

Under its titular, mythical metaphor for the fall of Babylon, and usage in Rastafari culture, ‘Le Macerie Di Babilonia’ imaginatively examines a sense of self via a historic lens, drawing on Napolano’s upbringing in the chaotic port city and his autodidactic research into the rich mosaic of Napolitan heritage, to model how a folk class solidarity and shared character, with its own rules and rituals, has emerged from its syncretic milieu. 

Variously a treatise on provenance; an impressionistic tale of the European north meets a global south; a dub-abstracted, allegoric, ethnomusicological collage; ‘Le Macerie Di Babilonia’ is a fascinating and immersive listen that presents its maker’s dilated world view at its most mesmerising.

Limited Edition LP & Digi out 27th October.

Paralaxe Editions is based in Barcelona, and Ylia (a.k.a. Susana Hernández) has long been one of the city's most well-regarded musicians. A classically trained pianist who came of age DJing breakbeat raves in Andalucia, she easily maneuvers between disparate scenes and styles; she's as comfortable dropping electro and techno records as she is performing alongside experimental flamenco artist Niño de Elche (she's a member of his touring band).

Following her appearances on labels such as Lapsus and Hivern Discs, Dulce Rendición is Ylia's first full-length effort, a cinematic collection of meditative and richly melodic tracks that largely grew out of her intimate live sets. Weaving together analog synths, field recordings and fragments of her own voice, much of the music was directly inspired by her dreams—and more specifically, the seemingly impossible sights and sounds that populated them. Working to recreate their lingering silhouettes in the light of day, Ylia oscillated between moments of deep introspection and playful fantasy as she settled into the hazy space between sleep and consciousness.
