The River Voices – Çorovodë, Albania | May 2017

From Remix-Culture‘s Bandcamp site:

“Recorded live in May of 2017 by Hatim Belyamani and Bajram “Kafu” Kinolli in Çorovodë, Albania.

We are a non-profit organization celebrating musical traditions in harmony with digital remix art.

Our mission is to inspire people to reconfigure their relationships with other cultures, communities, and individuals, through film and musical experiences, both live and virtual.

Otherwise we are lost.“

It seems like a noble effort by Remix-Culture.  I look forward to hearing more from them.

Ilir Lluka – Twelve Years of Nihilism

Ilir Lluka, a composer out of Tirana, Albania, is one of the best active experimental musicians in the Balkans.  He works in the mediums of electroacoustic music, electronic, drone and sound art.  From his Bandcamp site:

The title of Ilir Lluka’s new digital album “Twelve Years of Nihilism” refers to his period of creativity and musical productivity of Ilir Lluka. The artist considers himself a realist but agrees that his feeling of pessimism about mankind can somehow come close to the semantic concept of the nihilist when regarding it from the object of inspiration point of view. The four tracks of the album play an obscure soundtrack for moods that are at times suffering but dilated over time as in a precise perseverance in philosophical reflections that perhaps will never have a definitive solution and answer.
