DE GREEF MIXTAPE SERIE #1: Drache Musicale

In an ongoing search for radio transmissions broadcasting the full potential of music and sounds, discovery by cassette is a first. The Drache Musicale radio show is on RADIO PANIK 105.4 FM in Brussels. Hosted by FrontChaud and Miss Sirocco, a curation of everything that is good. The show is live on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of the month at 17h-18h UTC. Replayed on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month 10h-11h UTC



Released on Tanuki Records in an edition of thirty. Copies quickly sold out. There was no download originally, but Tanuki Records has offered a limited time download on their bandcamp page. This show is titled "Piano à Pouces", diving into sub-Saharan African rhythms and branching out with worldly beats. Strong influences of metal tongued instruments plucked in traditional styles, accompanied by beautiful vocals. Described as "Likembe / Sanza / Mbira / Kondi / Kalimba / Marimba", from the Drache Musicale website. The Tanuki Records cassette is also a hybrid of the radio show. Listening to the soundcloud version of "Piano à Pouces", some of the narration by FrontChaud and Miss Sirocco has been edited. This provides a more concise musical edition via cassette. 

#1 Drache Musicale is the first edition in the De Greef Mix Tape Series. Much love went into the presentation, with individual paper pouches wrapped and sealed with the Tanuki dressing. Printed card stock inside with artful details. 

Hopefully more cassettes will be issued in the De Greef series. For now enjoy the sounds on Tanuki's bandcamp page. The next live broadcast of Drache Musicale will be on Monday, May 13th.
