AFTA-1 - Intro Dream: A track from 09 I never “finished”.

Played it at my first Boombox performance, but this is the only evidence of it I could find. The original file is hiding from me.

So, It is yours. With Love

Enjoy

HTRK - “Bendin’” (by ghostlyintl)

HTRK’s Ghostly International debut Work (work, work) is a flat-lined study of desire and submission, sentimentality and dysphoria. The London by way of Berlin and Melbourne art-rock duo (pronounced “Hate Rock”) finished the album’s production while grieving the sudden loss of founding member and bassist Sean Stewart to suicide in March ‘10. And while that tragedy has certainly found its way into the music’s bottomless sonic void, Work (work, work), written from 2006-10 in Berlin and London, is about much more than abject darkness.

rashidzakat:

Christine Sun Kim is a deaf performance artist who explores the physicality of sound in her art. Her lo-fi experimentation explore the ownership of sound. The hearing assume ownership of sound in a way that leaves out the consideration of ownership.

This was made by the Selby…whose work continues to get better and better.

From FRKWYS Vol. 8 feat. Blues Control & Laraaji on RVNG Intl. (FRKWYS08)

igetrvng.com

For the eighth installment of their collaborative, generation-gap-closing FRKWYS series, RVNG Int’l have united Philly noise rockers Blues Control with mystical zitherist/composer Laraaji, whom you might remember from his work with Brian Eno in 1980 for Ambient 3: Day of Radiance. In keeping with the concept of the series, the three musicians got together in a studio, jammed for several hours, shared notes, and edited down the resulting improvisations to a finished Vol. 8. “Awakening Day” opens the album with a breath of fresh air at sunrise. The synthesizer drones so often relied on in this nu age of ours give way to warped swells of electronically modified guitar, zither, and marimba— refreshingly organic in character despite the liberal application of effects and acoustic manipulation. Both Blues Control and Laraaji are seasoned explorers of the present tense in music, effortlessly blending their varying approaches to the Now while allowing each component to exist freely, without an ascribed linearity.

Mia Doi Todd — Canto de Iemanjá by Vinícius de Moraes and Baden Powell (by Grace Oh)

Video for Mia Doi Todd’s version of “Canto de Iemanjá,” one of the original Afro-Sambas by the great Brazilian songwriters Vinícius de Moraes and Baden Powell. The song appears on Mia’s new record “Cosmic Ocean Ship” and on the new “Red Hot + Rio2” compilation.

Iemanjá is the Orisha or Goddess of the Ocean in the Yoruba, Candomble, and Santeria traditions. She represents divine consciousness, healing unconditional love, feminine creativity and the essence of motherhood. The video pays homage to the rituals that take place in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil at the Praia de Iemanjá every year on February 2nd, her special saint’s day. Devotees bring flowers, watermelons and perfume for the Goddess and make altars for her on the beach. These offerings are then taken out to the Ocean with prayers and wishes alongside the statue of the Goddess in a small boat. The belief is that if the offerings are accepted by the Ocean and do not tumble back to shore, wishes will be granted.

Directed and edited by Grace Oh with choreography and dancing by Kimberly Miguel-Mullen and costumes by Mia Doi Todd, the video aims to capture the sacred essence of these rituals and celebrate the majesty and mystery of the Ocean which is currently so endangered by global warming and pollution. Shot in Baja California on the Pacific Ocean, the video is an outpouring of love, devotion, community and creativity, in honor of Iemanjá.
