VA – The Ethnomusicology Experience, Pt. 3 (Ready Mix Records)

Release Date:
January 29th 2021 (Beatport Exclusive)
February 12th 2021 (Worldwide)

Ethnomusicology is the study of music from the cultural and social aspects of the people who make it. It encompasses distinct theoretical and methodical approaches that emphasize cultural, social, material, cognitive, biological, and other dimensions or contexts of musical behavior, instead of only its isolated sound component.

The term Ethnomusicology is said to have been first coined by Jaap Kunst from the Greek words ἔθνος (ethnos, ‘nation’) and μουσική (mousike, ‘music’), is often defined as the anthropology or ethnography of music, or as musical anthropology.

During its early development from comparative musicology in the 1950’s, Ethnomusicology was primarily oriented toward non-Western music, but for several decades has included the study of all and any musics of the world (including Western art music and popular music) from anthropological, sociological and intercultural perspectives.

Stated broadly, Ethnomusicology may be described as a holistic investigation of music in its cultural contexts. Combining aspects of folklore, psychology, cultural anthropology, linguistics, comparative musicology, music theory, and history, Ethnomusicology has adopted perspectives from a multitude of disciplines.

Traveling all around the world to discover new sounds has led us to curate our third of many ‘Ethnomusicology Experience’ various artist compilations.

For Part-3, we have assembled a squad of talented producers who have delivered exceptionally breathtaking music. In no particular order, the compilation welcomes Dustin Rosata (USA), Hedowiec (Poland), Mike Leon Sound (Greece), ELO (Germany), Ephlum (Algeria), Akuba (Turkey), Ahiram (Sweden), BiGz (Lebanon/Canada), Khaaron (Hungary), Jean Vayat (Ukraine), Sumsuch (UK), Mooglie & Sasson (FR) (France), DJ Queto (Turkey), Pano Manara (Greece), Ivory Child (South Africa) and Tigran (Armenia – Hungary).

Casomado – Walk Away (Friskybeat Records)

Miguel Leiva is Casomado, an up and coming producer and DJ based out of Montreal. Casomado has settled on a multi-faceted house music sound to move feet and souls alike. His new single, “Walk Away,” was inspired by Casomado’s travels in South America earlier in the year. Starting with gentle, emotional chords, the tune comes together with a subdued house rhythm and ‘80s-style bass line. The melody, inspired by a classic disco track, compliments the inspiration and musical vibe with precision. The Lyrics are an intimate reminder of the possibility of love … and if we’re not careful, how easily love can turn to loss. Sweet and sensual vocals bring it all together like icing on a cake. It’s a lovely slice of deep house, ready-made for mixes, DJ sets, and back-to-mine sessions.
