DOWNLOAD ZIP SOUNDCLOUD

Two lost & found lofi nuggets from the Jahtari vault, appearing on 7″ floppy disc for the very first time.

Arcade Addict” is the original Dub cut of Mikey Murka‘s “Sensi Addict”, a version of the sweet Ujama classic that came out as a Jahtari Net-7″ in 2006. Sprinkled with field recordings from early 80s Arcade Halls (done by kids with a walkman) this little oddity never made it to vinyl until now.

Proper Tings” on B is taken from a home made video from 2012, originally made to show the capabilities of a DIY Synth project using a Commodore C64 home computer sound chip, the growly SID synth.

Sounds are made from scratch, sequenced out on a MPC – and the ensuing Dub jam turned out to be a lucky shot, eventually shaping up as Paul St. Hilaire‘s “Who Goes There“. There’s a raw, beautiful 8bit magic to this Dub, finally making it to wax for the first time.

Experimental Deephouse Afro-futurism album by Dub poetry free spirit Jasmine Tutum and OG Jahtari crew disrupt & Rootah as The Other Others, oscillating between spaced out soundscapes, floaty hoovers and heavy movers.

Tokyo-born, grown up in Jamaica and living in Germany (with various stops in-between) Jasmine’s wild biography translates into sonic territory with this LP, drawing inspiration from Grace Jones and Theo Parrish, newworldaquarium and Roger Robinson alike.

Coming on vinyl LP and as limited glow-in-the-dark tapes edition!

Supported by Initiative Musik gGmbH with project funds from the Federal Government Commisioner for Culture and Media.

BANDCAMP



Six Black Hole jazz dubs by Cosmic Threat, coming together in one truely epic album straight from the astral echo chamber.

Jammed over various sessions in an empty Leipzig club during lockdown, Kiki Hitomi, disrupt and bass clarinet black belt Volker Hemken (from Gewandhausorchester Leipzig) are keeping the track structures in constant warp mode, psychically locking in with the machines and freely exploring all the sonic territory inbetween Sun Ra and Prince Jammy.

This highly hypnotic spiritual sequel to Kiki Hitomi’s ‘Karma No Kusari‘ (2016) comes on red vinyl and with hand-painted artwork by Ellen G.

 


‘Cosmic Threads’ was commissioned by Gewandhaus zu Leipzig as part of ‘Two Play To Play’. ‘Two Play To Play‘ was designed by Karen Laube and Matthias Krähenbiel and is produced and presented by Gewandhaus zu Leipzig. Vinyl funded by GvL Neustart.

Probably the very first proper Jahtari tracks ever made, those two raw gems from a Net-7″ from 2004 are finally appearing on vinyl through Turtle Isle Records.

Two really cool Rootah and disrupt lofi jams on some Wackies riddims (probably), with a cracked Ableton Live… Lots of love for this one.

Sonic Fiction tape by disrupt on Zonedog, giving nods to tales like Fallout, Wasteland or Mad Max.

Gritty loops and eroded synth-scapes tell the story of a trip across a world without water: a journey through parched and wind-swept lands, dried-out riverbeds, past vast garbage dumps, following the hydrogen fuel veins across the Big White, in search for that crucial part to fix your communities’ water pump: ‘The Water Chip’.

Each tape comes with hand-painted cover art by Ltd. Candy, each with a unique color scheme – photos can’t fully capture it.

Only 77 tapes for the world! Don’t sleep or you’ll weep!

Incl free Bandcamp download code!

‘…lost contact with scientist team looking into the energy signature on Psylos Prime. Just entered orbit, on my way to investig… SYSTEM ERROR—‘

Last words from seasoned psychonaut Disrupt, and the beginning of ‘Under Triple Suns’, a gripping SonicFiction paperback novel, cut to holo-disk for the very first time.

Dubbed-out loop clusters, foggy melody nebulas and hazy layers of alien field recordings are held together by otherworldly off-the-grid rhythms, shaping the experience into an highly immersive sonic tale of crash-landing on a mysterious planet.

Out on the Jahtari-sublabel Zonedog the album follows the trail of previous space exploration endaevours like ‘Omega Station‘ and ‘The Recreation Room‘. Coming with beautiful vintage-SciFi water color artwork by Ellen G.

— SIGNING OFF…

DIGITAL (free download!)



Nerdcore Dub versions from ‘The Secret of Monkey Island I & II’ adventure game soundtracks (1990 / 91), the forgotten Voodoo-Reggae classics from the floppy disc age.

The original game soundtracks by Michael Z. Land, in all their uncanny 16bit-Soundblaster FM-synth glory, were a massive influence for Jahtari (weird computer game reggae!) – but could those soothing and somewhat wimpy tracks be translated into a Heavyweight Dub context, something that might work on a sound system?

Well, here are our attempts from around 2005 / 06: Meanwhile Deep Beneath the Island. Sixteen haunting tracks, optimized for guzzling grog, by Gamle Harlev Orchestra & Bo Marley, John Frum, Volfoniq and disrupt. Finished cuts, various dubs and plain demos, raised from the Undead, just for the torment of your ears!

OG artwork by Kristian Nordentoft. Available as FREE download on Bandcamp – and as limited tape run with alternate ‘Head of the Navigator’ cover!
