ltd repress - trio ternura (or tenderness trio) consisted of two sisters, jussara, jurema and their brother robson. their father, umberto silva was a revered brazilian songwriter and recording artist who introduced his children to the music world at a very young age. after performing some songs on broadcast television and at festivals early on, their father umberto and brother, beto scala wrote a gira for the trio to record. the song is a tribute to nature, spirituality and mindfulness. the hommage is made through a form of cantico (chant) or saudação (salutation), aimed at invoking an orisha named oxossi. otherwise known as saints, orishas are the deities worshiped in the afro-brazilian religion of candomblé. african religion and culture have had an undeniable impact in brazil, especially in music and on artists with african roots as its rituals were often accompanied by music comprising highly percussive drumming. as a result, a gira, an homage to a candomblé deity recorded in 1973 involves mesmerizing polyrhythms from the very first few bars and throughout, followed by the sisters soaring vocals and impeccable instrumentation. its a song that they can really identify with, in their own words it has the dancing, the expression, the lyrics and musical relaxation - something very brazilian. originally released on polydor in brazil, fully licensed and remastered from the tapes - mel012 comes forth in its 7-inch original vinyl format and digitally, b/w trio ternuras stunning version of gato barbieris last tango in paris and is accompanied by the first bilingual melozine.

venus volcanism ist die musikerin und elektronische künstlerin rena rasouli. sie präsentiert ihr erstes solo-mini-album -rizitiko- auf optimos unterlabel -weaponise your sound-, das traditionelle volkslieder ihrer heimatinsel kreta als grundlage für diese arbeit verwendet.

rizitiko entstand aus rasoulis these mit dem titel -die musikdarbietungen im traditionellen dialekt konzentrieren sich auf die heilfähigkeit des klangs-. die lieder wurden von folk-troubadours kreiert und gesungen. als rasouli diese werke erweiterte, kam er auf die idee, dass der melodische gebrauch der stimme die älteste therapieform in der menschlichen kultur ist. dieses primäre und rituelle material war mit elektronischen und natürlichen umgebungsgeräuschen verflochten. die resultierenden kompositionen drücken die allgegenwärtigen empfindungen und emotionen aus, die eine schlüsselrolle im heilungsprozess spielen, während sie eine intensive verbindung zum kollektiven unbewussten vermitteln. traditionell von männern gesungen, gibt es zahlreiche gründe zu der annahme, dass viele der songs ursprünglich von frauen kreiert wurden. sie mit weiblicher stimme zu singen, projiziert eine andere herangehensweise an die traditionelle wiedergabe - eine, die der eines schlaflieds näher kommt.

uzelli kaset was established in 1971 by muammer and yavuz uzelli in frankfurt, germany. their music resonated not only with the longing that gastarbeiter (guest workers) felt for the homelands and families they had left behind and the melancholy brought by their difficult living and working conditions in germany. uzelli kaset was soon more than just a music company it became a companion to turkish workers living far from home.
