Epic 32 Track comp of exclusive tracks curated and compiled by Mumdance (also available as a limited edition 5-track vinyl sampler, and a mixed cassette) featuring a colossal haul of tracks from Space Afrika, Caterina Barbieri, Chevel, JK Flesh, Abyss X, Sleeparchive, Mumdance & Logos, Peder Mannerfelt, Nkisi, ZULI and many others...
Shared Meanings comprises 32 exclusive tracks, drawn from a panorama of contemporary electronic musicâpioneers, emerging talents, brand new producersâbrought together by Adamsâ curatorial ear. Itâs the natural next step from Radio Mumdance, the far-reaching radio project that saw Adams play back-to-back with some of his favourite artists: Nina Kraviz, DJ Stingray, DJ Storm, Surgeon, Ben UFO, Josey Rebelle and many others. Across a 97-minute session, Shared Meanings draws from the ideas and inspirations Adamsâ gained across those 40 weekly shows.Â
The sampler 12â includes Mumdance & Logosâ massive âTeachersâ alongside zingers from Nkisi, Peder Mannerfelt, Caterina Barbieri and Space Afrika. On a dance tip, Mumdance & Logos pay tribute to a Chicago convention on âTeachersâ, listing a roll-call of influential UK artists, DJs, labels and clubs in a style most famously deployed by Daft Punk, while Nkisi comes fiercely correct with the swingeing Congolese techno rolige of âKinegaâ, and Peder Mannerfelt does his inimitable, mutant rave thing on âOver My Faceâ. But theyâre only one aspect of the mix, leaving the plonging modular navigation of âMolecular Illusionâ by Caterina Barbieri, and the golden ambient deliquescence of Space Afrikaâs piece to speak to the contrasts and breath of Mumdanceâs mix and his lushly dark vision of modern dance music.
