ECLIPSE CULTURE - help me to banish the most sacred part of myself (XQU027)

Waiting for the Crash Edit

With a body of work that goes back to 2007, Amerindian Aymara producer, poet & composer Elysia Crampton produces work that pulls from a broad range of sources, from traditional Andean to free jazz & noise music, and touches on personal themes of Latinx culture, LGBT communities & Christianity. The result is a high concept & emotionally potent form of digital sound collage that has influenced a generation of producers online.

Label Mix 012 comes from @slagwerk, a vanguard of the new digital experimental music landscape. Founded by Otis Dehaes in 2017, this Brussels-based label and event series represents a fusion of love, dedication, and an uncanny knack for discovering and nurturing underground talent, while embracing an ever-evolving digital ethos.

Otis’s ear has taken Slagwerk 18 releases deep, cementing the label as a hub for experimental music that’s so delightful to listen to, the term “experimental” almost feels wrong, but it isn’t. “Some people might hear some consistency in the output, but I have not necessarily intended it that way,” Otis told Nina. 

Releases from artists like Money Lang, Color Plus, Ange Halliwell, Dasychira, and many more have cemented Slagwerk as a destination for internet music heads looking for a fix of strange, warm, and beautiful music that defies easy categorization. Otis said his Nina label mix “recaps the label’s different emotions throughout the years.”

You can collect the mix for free on Nina: https://ninaprotocol.com/releases/slagwerk-nina-label-mix-012

Nina Label Mix 012: Slagwerk

Summer 2023: I have a dream where I am looking out at the vastness of the ocean and notice something on the horizon. I don't remember if I am traveling on a boat or just floating over the water, but I go straight towards the mass. As I get closer, a forest of drowned trees begins to emerge. The ocean is deep here, it's like an extremely deep swamp or estuary. I immerse myself into the forest of limbs and begin to feel that the sticks are similar to gravestones; a graveyard. 

"I've seen you before" is song written in reference to the dream, but before I found this picture in a family photo album. Not only does the picture almost perfectly mirror what I saw in my dream, but its qualities are outstanding in that it is red (no other picture in the piles of photos had this degraded hue) and the location is undefined (no writing or indication of where this boat is / the photos that were with it did not give any reference to it).

New York City based multifaceted musician and artist Drumloop releases “Limiting Mindset” on 12” LP on Psychic Liberation on May 1st, 2024.

Emerging from the freezing sea, a winged automata ascends over  Mount Erebus and the ice shelves below. Like an arrow aimed at the heavens she flies towards the atmosphere, caught by gravity's kiss. Held, inches from the interstellar sublime, aching for release. Negotiations with divine emissaries. She's accepted into the twinkling astral entropy of soundless void. Breathless in the endless womb of stars. Phantom echoes of the language of unknown metals. Internal depths exposed, exalted and reabsorbed. Returned, whole and warm. Softly descending. Imbued with ultraviolet, embraced by blue depths, returned to the liquid core. Succor for the oceans of grief.

“Limiting Mindset” is sublime. Closer to a sacrament than an album. A divine transmission intercepted by Antarctic listening stations. I am reminded of the depths plumbed by Porter Ricks, of the tundra cool of Thomas Köner’s solo works, the tapestry of Tim Hecker’s emotional fractals and Autechre at their most interstellar. One could draw these comparisons, but Drumloop clearly inhabits her own unique space. A piercing emotional resonance permeates the entire proceeding. It’s like listening to a conversation between fathomless and private internal spaces with the endless astral entropy that surrounds all things. Each song stands beautifully on its own, while remaining integral to the whole. Transmutation as song. You will not leave unmoved.

Today, I want to speak with you about coronavirus
And what it means for you
And your family.

While changes need to be made now
This is not 
How we will live forever.

Our children
Will return to school.

People
Will return to work.

We will gather
At the places of worship,
Concerts,
And sporting events again.

I urge you 
to stay connected
To family and loved ones

Through the video chats,
Phone calls,
Social media,
And other safe technologies.

Please be sure 
To follow
CDC guidelines
Which can be found at coronavirus.gov
Or cdc.gov
Along with other information
And resources.

Stay safe
And remember
While many of us are apart
We are all 
In this together.

------------------------------

Money is a widely accepted form of currency.

It's a beautiful thing when people can come together and accept money from each other, I just love it.

I'm always wondering,
In a situation like this,
When we all gather together—

Not at a friends apartment,

Rather through the video chats,
Phone calls,
Social media,
And other safe technologies.

How much money there is
Among us.

$300
A million?
1,269 dollars?

How much money is in your bank account?

How many of us by a show of hands have loose coins in our pockets?

Please be silent so that we can count precise dollar, pound, euro, and other currency amounts
And attribute a sum to each individual.

------------------------------

How many words
Do you know?

What are some of them?

Acorn
Spinach
Birthday party
Beach towel

Absolutely
Walking
Serendipity

Pick your poison:
No more peace and quiet for the wordless.

------------------------------

I. Products. 
(1) Grain market with its various subdivisions. E.g. seed market: rice, sago, potatoes etc. This very important economically; at the same time market for production and for direct consumption. 
(2) Colonial-produce market. Coffee, tea, cocoa, sugar; spices (pepper, tobacco, pimento, cinnamon, cassia lignea, cloves, ginger, mace, nutmegs, etc.). 
(3) Fruits. Almonds, currants, figs, plums, prunes, raisins, oranges, lemons etc. Molasses (for production etc.). 
(4) Provisions. Butter ; cheese ; bacon ; hams ; lard ; pork ; beef (smoked), fish etc. 
(5) Spirits. Wine, rum, beer etc. 

II. Raw Materials. 
(1) Raw materials for mechanical industry. Flax ; hemp ; cotton ; silk ; wool ; hides ; leather ; gutta-percha etc. 
(2) Raw materials for chemical industry. Potash, saltpetre ; turpentine ; nitrate of soda etc.

III. Raw materials which at the same time instruments of production. 
Metals (copper, iron, tin, zinc, lead, steel etc.), wood. Lumber. Timber. Dye-woods. Specialized wood for shipbuilding etc. Accessory means of production and raw materials. Drugs and dyes. (Cochineal, indigo etc. Tar. Tallow. Oil. Coals etc.) 
Of course, every product must go to market, but really great markets, as distinct from retail trade, are formed only by the great consumption goods (economically important are only the grain market, the tea, the sugar, the coffee market (wine market to some extent, and market in spirits generally), or those which are raw materials of industry: wool, silk, wood, metal market etc.) 
To be seen at what point the abstract category of the market has to be brought in.)

bus045: VISIO – Century Cameo

see your world in a grain of sand
heaven in a wild flower
hold infinity in the palm of your hand
an eternity in an hour

i'm so bored i'm so bored
i could die die i could die
some things are not meant to be found
some things are not meant to be found
wheres your 
head at?
wheres your 
head at?
