EXCLUSIVE! Ellington Ratliff on his heartthrob status, 'awesome' relationship and why he dropped everything to join R5 | LAGoss

A meeting of minds and bodies on a heady percussive trip with no clear destination, captured live at Espacio Cultural El Tanque in Tenerife. With both imaginary and lived in tropical sceneries coalescing the two units, both Tenerife's Lagoss and Kampala's Abagwagwa (aka Nihiloxica) find a common thread to disentangle throughout different cartographies. As if it was bound to happen. As it did. Taking Abagwagwa's relentless barrage of polyrhythms as a starting point to jammin' excursions that never falter into self indulgence, brimming with ideas and spirits pulled from East African traditions, Free Jazz cosmologies, Dub tactics, urban sonic warfare and different strains of psychedelia through a vast array of drums, percussion, flutes, skewed synths, ecstatic vocals and electronic processing. Blessed with the xamanic drumming of João Pais Filipe on two tracks and feeling equally indebted to both bands' vision all the while commiting to a newfound sense of wonder, 'Island Slang' is a celebration that's truly alluring in its search for some sort of 'Universal Consciousness' - to quote Alice Coltrane - for which we're now invited to tag along. You are all welcome. All track by Lagoss and Abagwagwa (aka Nihiloxica) except track 1 & 2 featuring João Pais Filipe ABAGWAGWA (Nihiloxica) Henry Kazoma, Henry Isabirye, Jamie Mwanje, Peter Jones, Jacob Maskell-Key LAGOSS Gonçalo F.

👉👉👉 Friday 9th October 2020 👈👈👈 The third evening curated by Discrepant for maat Mode uses the possibilities of the “4th World” concept as a trigger to explore a forever-mutating sound world that depicts alternate civilisations and dimensions: a utopian/dystopian parallel free of North/South concepts of poor and rich; a total breakdown of the cultural status quo; atypical dimensions. Featuring Lagoss (new project by Gonçalo Cardoso, Mladen Kurajica & Danni Tupper) and Star Searchers (latest Spencer Clark monicker). 5 eur admin with museum ticket. ------------ “Fourth World” is a term that describes the possibility of music in truly global terms, beyond First World, beyond Third World, beyond classical, beyond pop, beyond any genre. Initiated by trumpet explorer extraordinaire Jon Hassel back in the late 1970s, Fourth World is a mutant combination of ancient and futuristic, a kind of contemporary folk music from “unknown and imaginary regions”. #discrepant #maat #maatmode2020 #lagoss #starsearchers #spencerclark #discrepantrecords #livemusic (at MAAT - Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFt2iPQFEDg/?igshid=1kziu2o3wyp2p
