EZZYLAND (Dubai/Chennai, India) Sidharth Ezhilan blends colorful storytelling as ìEZZYLANDî. The Dubai resident migrated to the motherland earlier this year on a mission: to raise the bar and change the game in the growing indie music scene so as to eventually make India one of the hottest music destinations in the world. He never refrains from left-field quintessential commentary on the current state of music and it's consumption. He's been carving a niche for himself amidst an international audience by bringing his unique sound from the future into places that are stuck in the past. He's proving influential to generations of both homegrown and overseas artists by putting out bodies of work that are way ahead of it's time. He is a curator of alien music; a seamless radio station from the 31st century. The music is riddled with elements from a plethora of soundcloud subgenres and experimentation. His tunes have made the rounds in TuneIn Radio stations for many mornings and have recently garnered quite the attention on Spotify. EZZYLAND played at the Future Theory Festival 2017 @Razzberry Rhinoceros in Mumbai. A few other notable venues include Antisocial Mumbai, Social Bangalore, Antisocial Delhi and the Boxout HQ. He hosts his monthly radio show "ZZY" on the boxout airwaves where he educates listeners with gems from across the underground spectrum for an hour. After overcoming months of personal struggles earlier last year, he released a very personal and his most mature concept album to date, titled, "DEPS X ANXIES". Wild City declared it an understated classic. The hour-long interview with Border Movement is a must read for any nihilist.

Turkish born German resident Nene Hatun, delivers an intense and darkly beautiful selection of tracks for mix #119. Classically trained musician and producer Beste Aydin is currently in India as part of Border Movement’s tailor-made BMR residency program. Born in Istanbul, raised in Turkey and currently residing in Berlin, Beste’s background is as varied as her music. The artist spent 7 years studying piano and composition in Stuttgart before making the bold move to electronic music, which (as she describes in this interview with Kunal Bambawale on Border Movement) was “more like a rebellion than a transition”. Aydin’s disinclination for upholding a status quo is apparent in her moniker; the name Nene Hatun originally belonged to a 19th century Turkish freedom fighter who fought in the war against imperial Russia. But beste makes it clear that the reasons behind adopting the epithet weren’t nationalistic or political. Rather, Nene Hatun is her identification as a woman who isn’t afraid of questioning the norm. That defiance makes itself apparent in Nene’s music, which is a genre-shifting amalgam of drone, industrial, psychedelic, vocal, dark wave, noise, experimental and techno. It also translates into her ruthlessly power-packed mix for Wild City, which features heave basslines, driving, aggressive beats and haunting melodies. If you’re expecting sparkling melodies and pretty vocals, you might be in the wrong place. Think pitch-black warehouses that pulsate with frenetic beat and bass way past dawn...

POOLcast 010 - Dinelka For this edition we have a remarkable story to tell. Almost 8000 km behind several seas, vast deserts and frozen mountain ranges a young man discovered electronic music, found a label called micromod music, came in contact with an initiative of Border Movement, Ableton, the Goethe Institut and got the chance to spend the summer in Berlin. This young man is from Colombo, Sri Lanka and is named Dinelka. Unexplainable, how an ocean of possibilities leads to a new brother in spirit. So it seems ironic that an ‘ocean’, which he had to overcome and now tears us apart, is the best metaphor to describe his musical work. Like the sea you will explore more than the surface reveals. Under shimmering shades and noisy billows unfolds vivid life. You find familiar and exoctic sounds, sometimes glitchy distorted and sometimes with soothing harmonies. And if you go for ground dive where deep grooves of unique pattern emerge, you will find the full weirdness and beauty of his extraneous sound worlds. Dinelka’s POOLcast 010 is the perfect example for this comparison. After your first step into it, bubbly sounds flowing around you, everyday noise merge with piling waves, every minute drag you further outside. And before you realize what is happening, you has entered an unusual and extraordinary world where you can't predict what you discover next. Hold your breath, it’s a long and exciting trip. ------------------------------------------------------------ Dinelka https://soundcloud.com/dinelkaofficial https://www.facebook.com/Dinelkamusik/ ------------------------------------------------------------ The POOL Berlin - POOLcast http://thepoolberlin.de https://facebook.com/poolcastberlin/ https://poolcast.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/thepoolberlin/ https://mixcloud.com/ThePoolcasts/

Sri Lanka’s SMPRSN (alternate alias Daffy Maestro) is the next selector to contribute to our growing music division here at Wild City. The Kandi based artist, known to his peers as Gihan Senevirathne, has been making tunes at home since the late 90s. He put out his debut four track EP ‘Home’ on Soundcloud under the name Daffy Maestro in 2013, playing with lo-fi, bass centric electronic sounds with a touch of experimentation. He came into the spotlight as Daffy Maestro in 2010, after he began contact with Border Movement and Colombo based DJ, producer and label owner Asvajit. The last year has seen him play live in his country and also recently in Mumbai for the Border Movement Sound Lab, where he performed and collaborated with acclaimed Indian and German acts including Sandunes, Aqua Dominatrix, SnowShoe and Sasha Perera, Toto Wolf and Oren Gerlitz - together known as Perera Elsewhere. Senevirathne’s Wild City Mix echoes the streamlined auditory aesthetic of SMPRSN which explores the dark contemporary bass and future garage inflected electronica that hs influenced the artist. You’ll notice a lot of familiar names and possibly familiar tunes in this star studded mix, which, with featured artists like Nosaj Thing, Burial, FlyLo, Amon Tobin and so many more, can really do no wrong. SMPRSN’s mixtape begins with some warm 80’s synth jams courtesy Come Truise and gets progressively dancier and at times, darker, with some stellar electronic compositions. Its sound takes a bass heavy turn midway with The Bug’s taking over, then moves on to the splintered beats, ghostly samples and earworm vocals of Burial and Ghostek and ends on a surprising ambient note with Need A Name. We recommend a good pair of headphones for this one. Tune in, you’re going to like it.

20 year old Bangalore based producer Nathan Menon’s collaboration with Tom Day resulted in what is possibly the single most beautiful track released in 2013. Picked by Border Movement and the #1 artist to watch out for in 2014 completely off the back of 'Love Is Rare, "Menon displayed tremendous vocal ability: a falsetto unironically comparable to Justin Vernon or Jai Paul." Apart from the EP he made with Tom Day, Menon’s output has almost been exclusively via sporadic uploads on SoundCloud. A few mixes, collaborations and tracks that are in effect enough to have us expecting something pretty interesting from this young kid. We've spoken to him in depth and know that there's some special collaborations on the way, as well as some new production that he's hopefully going to be ready to debut by the end of the year. Until now, we've managed to source a tasty little precursor and insight into the sonic mindset of Monsoonsiren. Like Monsoonsiren himself, the mix is difficult to define, only heightened by his decision to include one of his own productions at the very end. In just 35 minutes, Menon moves through a lot of music, maintaining a fairly straight cut vibe. And despite all of the music's familiar elements, there's still no one else out there who sounds quite like him, when taking into consideration his choice of samples and tracklist. “So, here’s my bipolar mixtape. Put on some headphones and eat some Parle-G." - Monsoonsiren For a tracklist and further info, head over here: http://www.thewildcity.com/EN/music.xhtml/article/5766-wild-city-078-monsoonsiren

We just can't stop ourselves. We're slipping deeper and deeper into the Pakistani underground and are only emerging with raw, sharp and just brilliant electronica. Alongside our compadres Border Movement, we've talked enough about the growing scene across the border, with the likes of Forever South. One of the artists on their roster is Daniel Arthur Panjwaneey a.k.a Alien Panda Jury (more on him here). An active musician within Karachi's booming underground music scene for over 12 years (primarily as a bassist for indie outfit //orangenoise), Alien Panda Jury is essentially an experimental electronic solo project by the seasoned musician. "Being a musician and songwriter there's times where you feel an urge to get your individuality out onto something. To me throwing on a housey beat with ambient pads, eastern classical vocals and percussions sampled and manipulated with a grinding bassline mashed up with occasional over-saturated acoustic guitars... is normal. It's also just so much fun to be able to throw everything in and go nuts to a point where it all makes sense in a way." - Alien Panda Jury Influenced by classic psychedelia, industrial, electronic and eastern/regional sounds, his music is an infectious mix of melodies and a unique beat-programming style. It only took us one listen and we just knew, we had to source a mix. And boy, did he deliver. Running through 17 carefully selected tracks over 1 hour it successfully exhibits his varied (yet very UK) taste in music. Opening with the 2562's raw 'Flavour Park Jam' it gently moves into more trip-hoppy territory before settling with the likes of Warp's Bibio and Ninjatune's Yppah before picking up again. As an added bonus it runs through 6 of his own productions, alongside some from fellow Karachi based producers Dynoman, Toll Cane and 6LA8. He even sneaks a bit of Clark and Burial in there. Can we blame him? For a tracklist and further info, head over here: http://www.thewildcity.com/EN/music.xhtml/article/3114-wild-city-044-alien-panda-jury
