Once a month on solipsistic NATION I showcase a label that is putting out such amazing music that I am compelled to share that music with you.
On today’s show we’re going to listen to select tracks from artists on Bak$hish Music. Bak$hish Music isn’t so much a label as a collective of like-minded artists modeled after Hakim Bey‘s Temporary Autonomous Zone (the socio-political tactic of creating temporary spaces that elude formal structures of control).
Bak$hish Music first popped up on my radar when they were kind enough to send me Cloucycle‘s Cumulus album (a project by Greg Hunter, Mauxuam, Master Margherita, Lingua Lustra and Ishq. Cumulus was such a fantastic album that from that point on I always kept an eye on whatever Bak$hish Music released and I have yet to be disappointed.
Like I said, when I find a label (or collective, in this case) that I love I want to share that music with you so I invited Maurizio and Moreno, Bak$hish Music’s co-founders, to talk about their endeavour. Arranging this interview took some time due to our conflicting schedules. At one point they were jamming with Robert Rich (check out his live set here) and then later they were performing at the Boom Festival. I’m thrilled to finally have them as guests on solipsistic NATION and share music from Bak$hish Music with you.
You can freely download nearly all the tracks featured on today’s show but I encourage you to support the artists by sending some cash their way.
Join us again next week when we’ll do it all over again. But completely different.
