Be Svendsen gets set to release the enchanting Twilight in Tankwa on Rebellion following his successful remix of NU’s Man O To on sister label Crosstown Rebels. Remix treatment comes courtesy of Berlin native Nico Stojan.
Twilight in Tankwa is a mystical and musical journey that Be Svendsen explains “is the result of decades long intimate relationship with outdoor rhythmic dance experience. The foundation of the track is rooted in a synth hook from the early 50s. The vocal, inspired by a barbershop quartet, work to give it the character of a true desert hymn."
The remix comes from Nico Stojan who twists a fresh melody into the original over driving undertones. Having honed his musical style as resident at the infamous Bar25 in Berlin, he has also released on labels like Highgrade, Connaisseur and Upon You records.
Equally alluring, second original track Scarecrow was brought about by AYAWAKE who wrote and recorded the vocals. He generously passed on to Be who honored it as the crown work of his cowboy-tech-tribute to the Ennio Morricone soundtracks of the late 60s.
Be Svendsen aka Lasse Bruhn Svendsen broke through into the international scene in 2014 with a series of productions and enchanting live performances at some of the most avant garde places to play on the earth, such as BOOM festival, Fusion, Burning Man, Symbiosis, Rainbow Serpent and AfrikaBurn.
Be Svendsen is the newest member to add his culturally rich productions to the Label of Earthly Delights. Offering us a beautiful 3 track journey in ‘Nabia’ EP. With recently taking over the charts with the famed remix of NU «Man o to» on Crosstown Rebels and his Rebellion debut, this EP is a blissful continuation of his signature sound and works. With support from the industry titans, such as Damian Lazarus and Lee Burridge, Be Svendsen is becoming a household name for the fans of the genre. Which genre? Well in the words of the artist himself… “…instead of limiting the genre to a certain style of chants, instrumentation or area, I would prefer to just call it Organic.”
His tonal creativities begin with ‘Decoy’, a journey of nomadic tendencies where delayed melodic riffs hover mythically over a measured kick and resonant bass. Drawing inspiration from Middle Eastern musical traditions, Be Svendsen injects moments of discord and resolve into this transcendent blend of music and nature.
Title track ‘Nabia’ is another original and the second in this flavored adventure. After developing an underlying percussion line brimming with organic tones, he inserts loose melodic phrases. The track opens up your mind to dream of the desert, open skies and freedom to dance inside
