    About this Episode

    Celebrating my first two weeks in UK for my new life with a brand new Eclectic Soul ! Hoping there won’t be any problem for me to stay here with that Brexit thing, cause this country is probably the best home for my music. We got three tracks from last Mac Miller posthumous album. I can get emotional when I listen to him, thinking he’s gone so soon. Plus he went away on my birthday. Feeling connected. Tycho plays as the second track, his last release being the first music I was listening on my headphones in UK. I remember walking at night to the underground at the end of the Northern line, under a light rain. I love this dreamy feeling when walking around a new place, not knowing at all what’s after the corner of the street. Michael Kiwanuka’s last eponymous album (he used just his last name) is what I was listening last night while doing grocery. Fantastic release. UK’s Elsa Hewitt returns in the show with her “experimental dream-pop” and the track Mermaid. I’m in love with her sound. I’m looking forward to see her live soon around here, and attend to the CDR event in London where she’ll be the guest in April for an artsist talk + production workshop. Towards the end, you’ll hear a track of mine that I did quickly on January 24, using a free sample pack. I just edited a few things to play it in the show to my better taste. The last two tracks are unreleased bits from my man Nectvr that might very well be signed to my own label Kamînar Records.Get exclusive mixes and support the artists on Mixcloud Select : https://mixcloud.com/costals/select

    So here we are. This is the first of my instrumental-only series. You'll find many tracks played in Eclectic Soul and some new ones.

    I just moved in a farm for a WorkAway experience. I was supposed to find a part-time job in Bristol from mid-March but the Universe probably wanted me to end up where I am right now. I'm precisely in Congresbury, 20km south-west of Bristol.

    I am giving 4-5 hours a day from Monday to Friday in exchange of accommodation and food. It's interesting to be in this day job situation after nine years. Work at the farm starts at 9am so I wake up at 5.30 to do my morning routine including creating a new track. Then I work about 1.5 hours on finishing music before feeding the animals and go on with the tasks I'm requested to do.

    I got my daily routine on a sheet and calendar app so my day and is well organised and I can be satisfied of my progress at the end of the day. It's nice to start the mandatory not-so-fun work with a sense of accomplishment so early in the day.

    I'm staying in a caravan on my own and I love it. This space is inspiring to me.

    I don't know how long I'll stay here, cause my values clashes with the farm's activity (they gonna get sheep to sell their meat). Plus, not least, my host is quite inconsiderate and seems to have partly the Diogenes syndrome. I thought about it because she shares similar traits with my sister who apparently has been diagnosed for that. It might be a consequence – for my sister – of her falling from the fifth floor when she was five years old. Anyways, won't go to deep in this here.

    I'm already looking for another WorkAway opportunity with purpose like collective creative work and permaculture. I got a couple leads. I'll probably walk from one place to the other. Approx. 10-12 hours. Might also ride my mini-cruiser board. So that means I must leave behind me some stuff, at a friend's place in Bristol. And have him ship me some of those things.

    My plan is to stay in the UK until the end of September. Then the idea is to move to Southern Italy in my homeland for a year, after stopping a while in Switzerland and France to meet family and friends.

    I'm working daily on finishing new tracks to be released in the coming months.

    I had the joy to discover that they did a TV adaptation of my favourite books, the tetralogy "Les Jeunes Filles" written by Henry de Montherlant. There's that, many video interviews and a few plays to watch on ina's streaming platform madelen. This is a goldmine. Enjoy 3 months free now.

    Special mention for Bonobo this month, as the massively influential album Black Sands celebrates its 10 years. I play one track from that album as well as a bonus track from the Black Sands Remixed album.

    Many tracks from two of the best albums of 2019, by the enigmatic band Sault and maybe the best female hip hop artist right now, Sampa the Great. I'm glad to say I'm opening the show with a track of mine, relesed in my last EP on my brand new label Kamînar Records. I'm relocating to Bristol or London by the end of the Winter, let me know if you live in UK ! Get exclusive mixes and support the artists on Mixcloud Select : https://mixcloud.com/costals/select
