Naujawanan Baidar - Naujawanan Baidar, Vol. 1 (2018)

Naujawanan Baidar - Naujawanan Baidar, Vol. 1 (2018) The debut recordings from Naujawanan Baidar, the latest project of The Myrrors founder N.R. Safi. With roots in the now-endangered sounds of 1970s Afghan cassette culture, Naujawanan Baidar filters the traditional music of Safi's paternal heritage through a labyrinth of buzzing drones, tape manipulation, and fuzz-drenched psychedelia. Traditional folk instruments (both acoustic and home-amplified) like the rubab, armonia, sorna, and tabla twist and melt into blown-out electrical storms, proving that one does not necessarily need guitars or any other standard western instrumentation to channel the trance-like energy of rock and roll. Had the dusty backstreets of pre-war Kabul birthed an experimental music scene paralleling German's krautrock movement, one can imagine that the results might have sounded a little something like this. These tracks were cut over the course of 2017 as a sort of sonic notebook, documenting the evolution of the project as it first took shape. Though the majority were originally conceived of as nothing more than demos or impressionistic sketches, the spontaneous and ramshackle approach of the tapes was eventually deemed more than befitting the spirit of the project. Keep an eye out for a second volume (coming soon on Radio Khiyābān) as well as the first taste of proper Naujawanan Baidar studio recordings. credits released November 24, 2018 all songs written recorded and produced by N.R.Safi recorded straight to tape in tucson arizona and nambe pueblo new mexico on tascam 4-track and edited in eindhoven netherlands with Parisa Eshrati (A1), Kellen Fortier (B1, B2) Dedicated to the memory of Mohammad Daoud Safi Здесь вы можете слушать онлайн mp3 бесплатно и без регистрации.
