Flore
Flore’s ‘Rituals Remixes 1 & 2’ were born out of the success of last year’s ‘Rituals’ album. These tracks are imbued with a focused and powerful reverie that bear testimony to her long and compelling career.
The dynamic French producer talks about her journey as a female musician/DJ, personal challenges, becoming the first woman in France to become an Ableton-certified trainer & going back to her musical roots. She also shares her influences and some rudimentary advice, while herself being an inspiration to all.
Jinniyah
Gio Makyo’s newest album “Shade” in the avatar of ‘Jinniyah’ explores the melancholy of loss and the concepts of zen & space through a unique mix of chillstep and downtempo trance. Inspired by the literary & cinematic works of romantic poet and politician Lord Byron & surrealist filmmaker David Lynch, and the fearlessness of author Arundhati Roy, the hauntingly beautiful and ethereal music of Jinniyah can transport you to a moody and mysterious world.
Symbolico
Very few artists that I know of are as enthusiastic and enterprising about their music and life’s mission as Symbolico. The soul-child project of Or-Ron Stern from Israel, the Symbolico sound is a surreal amalgamation of ambient vibes that bear the promise of magic and mystery, with groovy tribal rhythms which take us back to the humble developmental beginnings of human culture and cutting edge technological production.
