Dea - Mesopotamia (Mameen 3's Rai Not Raimix) [Sound Station Strategy Premiere] by Fauve Rec & Radio published on 2021-06-12T23:44:23Z “Music is a borderless language” This is our gargantuan motto at Fauve Records. With this mission statement arose a new project called 西 WEST & 東 EAST. Born from the desire to link the world of the West & the East. The idea was to ask two artist/band to collaborate on a split EP, with one original track each and finally to remix each others’ work. For Volume 1, it is with humble esteem that we present you to Mameen 3 from Belgium/Morocco and Dea from Indonesia. We are extremely happy to launch the new series with this extraordinary collection of retro-futuristic club music. First up is Mameen 3 with their original title “Dada Glitter”. A hypnotic burner that feels like the instrumental B-side of a fitness instruction song made by Ziad Rahbani's grandson in 2043. Wake up in utopia and find yourself high on XTC on a glittery Bellydance rave under the Moonshine of Djerbas beaches. An absolute sparkler faithfully signed: soFa & Cheb Runner. On remix duty of the previously mentioned track is the Indonesian future legend called Dea. After getting his hands on a vintage vocoder he pulled out all its magic blessing onto this stripped-down oriental-future-groover. A highly forceful bassline and effectively simple punchy beats do justice to this cosmic vocoder-funk gem. With lush chords and modestly well done modular toms, he puts the cherry on the cake. A masterpiece in a back-alley illegal trafficking vibe with intimate curiosity! On the flip side is Dea’s original piece “Mesopotamia”. Just when you thought you’ve travelled enough in this EP, the shaman takes it a step further by landing you on a planet where all genres live together in harmony. Classical, space odyssey, salsa, middle-eastern, you name it, the influences are endless. With a clean yet effective 4x4 analogue-sounding pulse, he handles a multiverse of emotions that will take you on the best drugless trip you can experience. Last but not least, Mameen 3’s “Rai Not Raimix” finishes the EP in style. Re-inventing the genre-less track by giving it an aspect of a sorcerer marching band. Amidst airy FM trumpets, off-groove claps and enthralled choirs the duo brings along the final smoky touch of this treasury of oddities.
