journey from digital reggae over tropical balearic vibes to boogie and wave

the second chapter in petit singe’s travel through akash ganga comes in the form of four remixes curated by members and friends of the haunter records extended family. they all applied their peculiar agencies and experience to the original recordings. danse noire boss and spiritual explorer aïsha devi combined elements from all the tracks of the album with her own production to assemble “necromedia”, a powerful take on the sidereal source material. haunter veteran weightausend delivers a psycho-dub version of the frantic “oxo”, while zuli (of vent and uiq fame) deconstructs the same track turning into a kind of post-human and post-colonial beat he labeled “astrogangsta”. the final track is an alteration of the album’s finale “27.09.87” by canadian experimenter jesse osborne-lanthier, who let it mutate like a self-sufficent biodigital organism, opening it up for new experiences.

off the back of their first ep release, super fun bumper editions trends, which received support from the likes of xl8r, thump, future classic, and bradley zero, beats of no nation is now gearing up for its second release by the chord memory band. chord memory band is a recent collaboration between michael medlycott (from the band vulture street tape gang) and dom bird (bonn co-founder and member of the live disco 4 piece mitzi). at the end of 2016, michael and dom caught wind of a cave, nestled beneath a sacred mountain, deep in the australian outback. the rumours described a cave filled with nocturnal animals and ancient flora, but more importantly, a stash of vintage synthesizers and drum machines. guided by whispers and caught up in the mystic mystery of it all, the duo set off with a dusty four-track tape recorder in an attempt to capture these mythical cave vibes and place them on a record. michael and dom surfaced several months later, with four recordings and no memory of what had occurred. these recordings became their synergistic third eye ep – an analogue journey into the spiritual world, with one simple message, the answer is inside.

nice price deal !!! a journey where techno enters a land of shadows and rarefactions, escaping images, dark suggestions. where gravity becomes a relative concept, uncertain, and where cinematic refractions count as much as the dance floor rules, in a continuous encounter. it is time to get involved. after plenty non trivial satisfactions, at the end of 2013 comes the time for federico to higher the stakes. he leaves the clockwork project for a solitary one. the richness of past experiences, the years in new york (and in musical and retinal education). a musical background that goes from the sharp and geometrical hip-hop of gang starr to the spirituality of basic channels techno dub, passing through the visionaries of radiohead and to the complex lightness of matthew herbert. now, all this brings the will to give life to a new sinuous, fascinating and profound creature. millennium ep 2014. five tracks that create space, that map an itinerary, that breathe deeply.

formed in the early 70s, the sounds of liberation was a group of philadelphia musicians. the sounds of liberation mixed jazz, funk, free jazz and spiritual jazz into a harmonious celebration of sound. with their infectious music they even found themselves playing long side kool and the gang at the 6th annual miss black america pageant. an incredibly rare record reissued for the first time on cd. this reissue was transferred and re-mastered from the original audio tapes and includes never before seen pictures
