Anatolian Weapons - Ghost Dancers, June 2019


Listen Later

A new instalment of our Mixtape series with a psychedelic selection by the hand of Anatolian weapons.
Athenian musician Aggelos Baltas has been producing music for almost a decade, with his Fantastikoi Hxoi project and the more recent Anatolian Weapons, this last one conceived as a way to bring together his influences in krautrock and EBM - two seemingly mismatched concepts- with the polyrhythmic percussion and wailing tones of Greek folk music serving as their unlikely bonding agent.
His most recent publication under the Anatolian Weapons moniker, the excellent 'To The Mother Of Gods', is an album made in collaboration with Greek folk musician and composer Seirios Savvaidis. Savvidis contributed stems of ten songs, which Baltas deconstructs and rearranges with an appreciation of the ancestry of their lineage and of the deceptively ancient eerie, droning qualities inherent in the style. Baltas shares that this album was one of these projects that flows very naturally; he felt so inspired by Seirios' original material that this is one of his favourite projects to date.
This mix, Ghost Dancers, it's [as always] a leftfield, psychedelic mix striving to combine the organic and electronic.
