📜Önünü alamıyorum bu kör gidişlerin yollarda

Herkes bir yere gidiyor önünü alamıyorum

Çaresiz direniyorum bu dönüm noktalarında kimse elini uzatmıyor

Bir gürültülü yaşamağa gidiyor dünya boşalan bir deniz gibi

Bu sesler ormanında kaybolan bir çağ bu.

Nereye gitsem hep apartmanlar çıkıyor önüme

Alıp başımı duvarlara çarpıyor bu yollar

Gidip gelmelerim bu dar sokaklarda

İnsanların koşup dolduğu bu dar yapılarda

Bir kısır döngüye girmek için bütün çabalar

Biz bunun için mi geldik.✨

Symphony for Palestine in Een os op het dak Concertzender

Zondag 2 juni presenteer ik de 62e aflevering van Een os op het dak op de Concertzender, vernoemd naar mijn boek Een os op het dak: moderne muziek na 1900 in vogelvlucht. Sinds de vorige aflevering is de wereld er bepaald niet vrolijker op geworden. Rusland begint terrein te winnen in Oekraïne, en Israël heeft inmiddels een groot deel van de Palestijnse bevolking uitgemoord. Gaza wordt nog…

I saw this really fun looking music game, and I wanted to do it too, so here it is!

Put your music library on shuffle, then list the first five songs that come up in a poll to let people vote for which one they like the most! Then tag Tumblr friends to keep the game going!

I am tagging @eastern-bluebirds, @offthephones @tunneldweller @queerangelic @lizarddad and whoever else wants to do this!

Oooh 27 & 29 for the AO3 wrapped Q’s please!

Hello, friend! 💜 Thank you so much for this ask!

27. What do you listen to while writing?

I have loved seeing other people's answers to this one, so much variety! For whatever reason, I usually can't listen to music with words when I'm writing--I think because I get deep in my own head thinking abut rhythms and cadence and word pairing and then I can't focus. 😂 But I do love the Planet Earth soundtracks and music by Kayhan Kalhor (especially the Night Silence Desert album) for writing. (And thanks so much to @silverbrume for suggesting the "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" soundtrack, this is a new favorite in the rotation!) Separately, I have, uh, extensive playlists (with music that has words!) for my blorbos/pairings that I like to listen to on my commute or working out, as a way of thinking about the characters, and I'm always taking recommendations for those! 😁

29. Favorite line/passage you wrote this year?

Oof, this was a delightful excuse to go back and scroll through the things I've written this year, thank you! I think, in the end, it might be this passage, from Bad Thing Twice:

Q meant to ask if it was really that simple, but the words stuck in his throat. Instead, he reached for Bond’s hand, bringing it up so he could study the lines of his palm. He knew his hand almost by heart—he’d looked at a scan of it over and over as he’d figured out how to encode the Walther to it, how to make the gun respond to Bond’s touch, and Bond’s alone. Now he knew how it felt on his body, the calluses on its fingertips, the strength of its grip, and he imagined for a moment that he’d been similarly imprinted upon, altered past the point of return. But Bond was looking down at him, his expression tender, waiting for Q to decide what he wanted, and there would be no inevitability here that Q didn’t choose for himself.

This came toward the end of my first foray into writing (ok, only very slightly more explicit) physical intimacy between Bond and Q, and I was a) nervous about it, and b) really conscious about wanting the emotions to come through, too. I wanted to use details from their world (canon, even!) to try to convey what this moment in the fic meant to Q, and then to complicate that a bit by reminding him that he has a choice, after all. I hope I achieved that, here--I really enjoyed writing it!

Thank you again for this! This was so much fun!

A collection of electronic recordings uncovered from the archives of the National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad capture a moment of self-discovery where Western drone and minimalist music segued with classical Indian forms. The New York improvisational stalwart Relative Pitch unearths Evan Parker’s first ever visit to the Big Apple, when the saxophonist played solo at the influential loft jazz venue Environ. Through torn bits, toiling consonants, tempestuous islands and teetering psychedelics, Roomful of Teeth continue to dismantle traditional notions of ensemble singing. And the quintet of Keir Neuringer, Tcheser Holmes, Aquiles Navarro, Luke Stewart and Camae Ayewa as Irreversible Entanglements offer a scorched take on ‘Nuclear War’ by Sun Ra, carrying us right into the fiery heart of the action with charred-black banter then out the other side as all of our trifling concerns fuse with the posterior or flicker like fading sparks and embers in the rear-view. Tracks by Zeena Parkins, billy woods, María Dueñas, Kayhan Kalhor, Toumani Diabaté, Klein and Delphine Dora also feature in the latest roundup.

Vancouver Folk Music Festival returns for the 46th year with an impressive line up

The 46th annual Vancouver Folk Music Festival returns this July 14-16 at Jericho Beach Park, thanks in no small part to audiences’ huge support and a groundswell of support. The 2023 edition of the Vancouver Folk Music Festival carries on the great legacy of musical excellence and eclectic discovery the annual summer tradition is renowned for bringing to the park.  From July 14-16, some of the world’s finest traditional and contemporary folk, world and roots music artists will spend the weekend bringing their works to friends, fans, appreciators of music and those who love the magic of this festival are invited to gather again to celebrate.

I think this year everyone appreciates this iconic festival a little more. None of us take it for granted. For the VFMF, “folk music” is an inclusive term that encompasses as broad a range of roots-based music from around the world as you can imagine. The beauty of this festival is that it brings such an extensive range of artists together for three days of connecting with each other, inspiring unique collaborations and making lasting memories for the amazing gathering of folks that unite every year to celebrate life, community and music. That tradition continues this year with these artists, and we welcome everyone back to the park this summer to be part of this joyful experience.” Some 40 music acts from 10 countries, 6 states and 8 provinces will be found performing on the Festival’s three daytime stages and an evening stage over the summer  weekend. Additional artists will be announced shortly. The festival’s gates open at 3pm on Friday, July 14, and music runs on Saturday and Sunday, July 15 & 16 from 11am to 11pm. This year's lineup includes a number of acclaimed artists known to many in the festival’s audience, including: Arizona’s Tex-Mex outfit Calexico, women’s music icon Ferron, the multi-faceted Joachim Cooder, the award-winning William Prince, and two genuine music legends, Joe Henry and Albert Lee. Music from around the world takes centre stage at the festival as well, including a towering figure in the world of traditional Persian music, Kayhan Kalhor and, among other international visitors, three groups who live for the music of the dance. From Italy’s Kalàscima, teaming up at the festival with stunning singer, Andrea Ramolo comes the passion and energy of the tarantella; the Cláudio Rabeca Quartet with special guest, Serena Eades play forró, the popular dance music of Brazil, and; we’re exciting to share the remarkable collaboration in the Melón Jiménez & Lara Wong Flamenco-World Trio. From south of the border, a number of artists are slated to bring the sounds of the US to the Jericho stages. Including one of zydeco and Cajun music’s great accordionists, Cedric Watson, who performs with fiddler Jourdan Thibodeaux; East LA’s Las Cafeteras’ son jarocho tunes will sure to bring folks to their feet; and folk music treasure, Aoife O’Donovan, brings her beautiful voice. Emerging artists are also on the roster including the Berklee College vocal trio and internet sensations, Tiny Habits; a strong and clear voice for social justice, Tré Burt, and BC’s own hip hop adventurer, Ruby Singh and The Future Ancestors.

Malian kora master Toumani Diabaté has died, age 58. His solo kora albums are amazing showcases for his technical virtuosity, melodic ear, and ability to draw three voices out of the instrument.

Although he found great success, including two Grammys, in duets with Malian guitarist nAli Farka Touré and also worked with other African artists, Diabaté collaborated and recorded frequently with an extremely wide range of international artists, redefining "fusion": Björk, Ketama, Taj Mahal, Béla Fleck, Damon Albarn, and Kayhan Kalhor.

His overarching goal was to erase the artificial statal boundaries imposed by imperialist colonial powers and unite West Africa culturally.

Here his is live with Ali Farka Touré playing the leadoff track from their first, Grammy-winning album:

And here's his Songhai collaboration with flamenco ensemble Ketama and bassist Danny Thompson:
