Annie Mac – BBC Radio 1’s Stories 2014-06-16 Oi! Brazil

“Annie Mac looks at a meeting of the best of Brazilian sounds coming together with the best of the UK Underground.
UK artists Mikill Pane, Happa, Afrikan Boy and duo Jus Now collaborate online with four Brazilian acts: IFA Afrobeat, Soraia Drummond, OQuadro and A.MA.SSA to create four new tracks which bring together the most exciting underground sounds coming out of Brazil and the UK.
The eyes of the world are on Brazil this Summer, with the soundtrack of tropicalia, bossa nova, samba and worldwide pop sensations.
But what is the sound of the Brazilian musical underground? And what does this soundtrack tell us about life for the nation’s young people?
This is an explosive moment for Brazil, not just socially, but musically too, with emerging bass, hip hop and experimental folk scenes.
Oi! Brazil introduces us to some of the real, raw sounds of current music being made in Brazil.
The rules are remade as fresh sounds are created, seeing traditional genres fused with bass culture, afrobeats, electronica and more.
This new breed of sound lends itself to a consciousness that explores both Brazilian and global citizenship – all whilst having an amazing party!”

Fanu + Mumdance – Solid Steel Show 2014-06-20

“Solid Steel (20th June) Fanu is our guest in Hour 1, an electronic music artist and DJ from Finland, who has been releasing music for many years,
plus remix duties that include Bill Laswell and our own Amon Tobin. In his own words;
“In addition to making/pushing/DJing broken beat music and running my label, Lightless, I’ve been working on loads of hip hop in the past 1.5 years, some of which will start to surface soon on Redefinition Records under my FatGyver alias. Hence, instead of going all electronic with the mix like I most often do, this time I wanted to go for the theme, “hip hop to D&B and back”. Hip hop and drum and bass used to have a lot in common, after all, and their aesthetics can be very similar.”
We welcome Mumdance in Hour 2 who has his ‘Take Time’ EP out now on Rinse. He had this to say about his mix;
“For my Solid Steel episode I wanted to make a weightless mix of drone, new age, dark ambient, shoegaze & experimental music. In my mind the prime listening situation is with headphones on, ideally looking out the window on any sort of transportation, or walking around on foot. Its music for travel. Over the hour it runs through a number of different emotions, arranged to let your mind drift as the scenery and sounds wash over you.””
