A twenty-four-minute wig-out you can dance to - wild baglama improvisation and mystical male-unison singing, atop the propulsive mass of a Berlin half-stepper, with turbulent detours into dub, radiophonics and psychedelia.

TRACKLIST 01. Kime Ne 02. Ricardo Villalobos Mix 1 03. Ricardo Villalobos Mix 2 INFO Stunning music from Istanbul! A twenty-four-minute wig-out you can dance to ž wild baglama improvisation and mystical male-unison singing, atop the propulsive mass of a Berlin half-stepper, with turbulent detours into dub, radiophonics and psychedelia. ˜Kime Ne™ means ˜so what™, ˜what™s it got to do with you™. The song adapts verses from the seventeenth-century poet Kul Nesimi, wistfully invoking the Melami strain of Sufism as a touchstone of humility and tolerance, in dark times. ˜Insanlar™ means ˜humankind™... ˜The Human Beings™. RV™s mixes are expert, taut and hard-grooving. 2 is the more agitated and dubwise. Nearly an hour of music, on three sides; the fourth is etched with Katharina Immekus™ lovely artwork. Knockout stuff, honestly.
