Solstice III
Multi Culti return with an expansive 8-track mini-LP showcase timed for summer solstice celebrations.
Artist: Various Artists
Genre: Electronica
Label: Multi Culti
Release date:
The a-side kicks off with the musically-gifted Mytron’s genre-defining title ‘Shisha House’, Italian Ayala teams up with Abrao on ‘Magia,’ Jamie Paton slices up the low-slung, serpentine ‘Sub Ritual,’ and Xanga & Zebulon deliver a literal love letter to the ‘Coca Leaf’.
B-side action begins with Ecuadorian newcomer Kunturi, whose ‘Eclosión’ portends a new wave of Nicola Cruz inspired, folkloric techno, Italian duo Future Island (Oltrefuturo teamed up with treasure island) rock an impressive slow-mo trance dub on ‘Wide Music II,’ Aiku debut out of Germany’s Harz mountains with ‘Fried Acid,’ while Argentine wizard Balam finishes the journey off with the incense and sitar laden ‘Caravana.’
While they may dabble in orientalist tropes, these are not mere Tulum-chasers out for shamanic DJ duty. This is avant-garde folk-Tronica that tows the limbo line and once again asserts cult supremacy in the great Psychonautical odyssey.
About the artist
“Because there’s so much more globalization, influences run deeper across cultures, so you get different kinds of mutations and variations on traditional music.”—Thomas von Party The way they explain it, DJs and producers Thomas von Party (from Montreal) and Sydney’s Angus Cruzman (a.k.a. Dreems) are on a mission to “multiply your mind.” Multi Culti, their globetrotting, New Age-leaning, psychedelic/electronic music imprint embraces folk instrumentation and the mystical traditions of world cultures. The duo joined forces in 2013 after discovering they shared mutual love for the esoteric—in both dance music and the wider culture—as well as a fondness for the energy of global dance parties. Today, they continue their intrepid quest for illuminating sounds to soundtrack meditation, dancing, tripping, or healing.
