spring has sprung... which means bbq season is here! our annual grill-orientated tour is in full swing and as no dirtybird bbq would be complete without some tunes, this year s soundtrack is dirtybird bbq: secret ingredients . we kept it stacked just like our bbq plate, with music from dirtybird shiba san & will clarke, dj glen, sébastien v and seumas norv.

tetsumasa’s debut ep “asa” on his own saidan label. solid sounds between savage broken rhythms somehow feels urban, flat and texturally dry. various sound components such as dub, noise, bass music and ambient are mixed within and thus creating unique sound world. it is expectable from his irregular beats that one of his music roots is abstract hip hop. “asa ep” has a remix from mogano, the owner of berlin label arboretum. tetsumasa doesn’t need a concept. this is his own sound pieces you can experience a variety of sensations.

emotional response and golf channel come together to release a special collaboration between montezumas rache s christian pannenburg (record loft) and jan shulte (muller/ bufiman) and legendary krautrock guitarist dominik von senger (the phantom band / dunkelziffer). a meeting out of the love of vinyl, where panneburg hails von senger to source phantom band rarities and an idea of working together was born. following the success of the percussive heavy debut wu du wu on second circle, the return to the studio for christian and jan shulte and this resultant ep is a true coming together of cross-generational minds. unfolding across 3 songs of subtly and beauty, mood, structure and atmospherics form in a post-balearic meets psychedelic haze. lilting piano start before dub bass and dominik s refrain melts its way in rheinfahren. voids open, minds expand, felds walked, oceans crossed, seas parted, wind pushes against the face, rolling hills, cloudy skies, sun, sand, love, lost, found, deeper and deeper it goes in to your soul. the uber flow continues at a slower pace with tangerine (krauter mix) taking things down but carrying the interplay between artist s continues as if made for each other. guitar hooks in multiple layers, finger clicks, pots n pans vibes gently taking you from formentara to tisno, malibu, tulum or wherever your heart lies restful. finally, guten morgen bromio is the (bro)mance to end any affair. hip hop roots, jan s mouth-harp underlaying, dominik s licks and christian s dub fx laiden spector commandments shuffle together until group vocals bring them finally to completion. a wonderful ep bringing together 3 artists and 2 labels for the love of music

„spectral decay” is a collection of musical reflections about the paradoxical contemporary state of humankind, whereas its own technological, social, cultural and economical development seems to entrench the possible points of a structura downfall. the narrative of „spectral decay” starts with heavy, mesmerizing industrial vibes. due to the notable sound design techniques of japanese artist tetsumasa, his hefty piece „nex” evolves into a harsh but still amazingly cinematical music sculpture. subsequent mid-tempo composition „onzour shayatini” by meer dynamically follows the dark, experimental path of drone and noisy structures. violent accents smoothly lead to the deconstruction of drum & bass patterns and turn into strident 90s metal riffs. the track progressively penetrates obscure subterranean abysses and becomes a perfect introduction to the next theme by yuji kondo – „hades”. in greek mythology hades was the ancient god of the underground kingdoms, darkness, death and metals. therefore, kondo’s music piece turns into an infernal portrayal of the underworld where tenebrous layers of bass frequencies, raw textures and drexciyan sounds build up an enormous and lasting tension. side b begins with the track „anthropocene” produced by arboretum co-founder – mogano. the whole composition refers to the present geological epoch we live in, characterized by environmental pollutions, depletion of fossil fuels and accelerated urbaniza- tion of the world. it is a deeply conceptual soundscape of a powerful system, that incorporates both – the destructive forces of technology and the infinite energy of the whole universe, that interweave in a devilish dance of post-techno, breakbeat and dub tones. thereafter, ~raw in his piece „poly bios” pictures the interference of human structures in the nature. creating a mosaic from indus- trial and tribal, organic sounds, he tells a mystical story of fear, hope, escape and primeval instincts. the narration concludes with an atmospheric composition of nwrmntc – solo project of ana quiroga from experimental ambient duet lcc. „beyond” is a boundless, spectral reflection on collective human consciousness, where haunting vocals evoke a recon- dite, ineffable pain, leaving the listeners in a profoundly meditative state. laura polan&#769,ska

eine musikalische achterbahnfahrt, die desert blues, jazz und rock verschmilzt und dem embryo-gründer christian burchard gewidmet ist.

in the years following the world war two, japan developed one of the most insatiable, dynamic and diverse markets for jazz. for a crucial period of little over a decade - from the late 1960s to the early 1980s - japanese jazz culture progressed at an astonishing rate, producing an extraordinary array of artists, recordings and record labels that created some of the most forward thinking and impressive jazz to be committed to tape. this amazing journey is explored on ‘j jazz’.

a quest for form which is never static and accompanied by two constants - repetition and reduction. reduction requires repetition in order to make the intangible tangible for man. this repetition also stimulates our perception and helps us find an inner self while illuminating towards the primal thought. another synonym for *intangible* is *not human* - for the most reductive of primal thoughts, sprung from fractal chance, does not deal with human beings but with a formal language that is universal, drawing from the innermost, and only becomes tangible in accidental, fortuitous moments.
