* background info on "Democracy in Haiti" Mixtape
http://nomadicwax.bandcamp.com/track/democracy-in-haiti-mixtape

Serving as the sister project to the upcoming Nomadic Wax documentary film,
"Democracy in Haiti," the Democracy in Haiti Mixtape highlights the political,
cultural and social issues facing Haitian youth after the earthquake that
struck the country in January 2010. The third film in the "Democracy In ..."
series, "Democracy in Haiti" presents to audiences Haitian youth who have been
active in the rebuilding of their country. In Haiti the youth make up the
largest percentage of the population, yet, their voice is often ignored in
discussions of political importance.

Serving as an outlet for Haitian youth to bring forth their voice, "Democracy
in Haiti" spotlights several young artists who have taken active roles in the
reformation of Haiti's cultural and political stature. Lena Jackson, the
Nomadic Wax Director of Photography for the "Democracy in Haiti" film, recently
returned to the country to document the events of the second round presidential
elections and further capture the voice of Haitian youth on film. "Democracy in
Haiti" helps audiences understand the important role Haitian youth must play in
the foundation of Haiti's political and social future. Featuring talent from
Haiti and the Haitian Diaspora around the world, the Democracy in Haiti Mixtape
brings together a diverse group of hip-hop artists contributing verses that
emphasize the socio-political issues currently facing Haitian society. As the
audio backdrop to the "Democracy in Haiti" film, the Democracy in Haiti Mixtape
encourages Haitian youth to stand up and take part in the successful rebuilding
of their nation's society.

The Democracy in Haiti Mixtape is mixed by DJ Nio of Zero Plastica and produced
by Magee McIlvaine of Nomadic Wax, Vox Sambou and DJ Nio. Mastered and
engineered by Dan Cantor of Notable Productions.

International Communications Manager

Last Date: May 8, 2011

Tostan is a Senegalese-born non-profit organization dedicated to educating and empowering Africans who have had little or no access to formal schooling. Tostan's community-led programs have resulted in thousands of villages deciding to abandon the practices of female genital cutting and child marriage, increase formal education of children, use problem solving and literacy skills to generate income and further develop local economies, and incorporate regular healthcare. This vibrant organization is rapidly scaling its successful model across Africa. In order to raise its profile with partners and global stakeholders, Tostan has created a new position for an International Communications Manager.

Reporting to the Director of External Relations, the International Communications Manager leads and mentors a dedicated team raising Tostan's public relations, marketing, communications and brand to the next level.

[creative-radio] [info] BANGKUTAMAN “Catch Me When I Fall”

 

Semangat
kebersamaan di single kedua

"Catch Me When I Fall"

 

Bangkutaman mengangkat semangat
kesetaraan, kebersamaan, kesetiakawanan dan saling tolong-menolong yang hampir
punah di warga perkotaan lewat single kedua mereka.

 

 

Jakarta [26/01/11]-Setelah single "Ode Buat
Kota" yang sempat jadi hit di beberapa stasiun radio di tanah air, termasuk di
crowd panggung bangkutaman di beberapa kota di tanah air,  kini trio folk rock tanah air ini kembali
melepas single kedua mereka bertajuk "Catch Me When I Fall". Lagu ini mengambil
urutan di track 10 dalam album penuh bangkutaman kedua, Ode Buat Kota yang
dirilis Jangan Marah Records. Adapun lagunya sendiri, seperti yang ditulis di
liner notes album Ode Buat Kota, lebih menyiratkan cerita tentang
semangat kesetaraan, kesetiakawanan dan tolong menolong yang hampir punah di
lingkungan perkotaan. Lebih dalam lagi, lagu ini membicarakan soalan humanisme,
yang kian lama kian hilang karena tidak adanya kesadaran bahwa umat manusia di
dunia adalah sama, tanpa mengenal hal-hal seperti Suku, Agama, Ras dan Adat
Istiadat. "Menjadi Humanis adalah mustahil di perkotaan, Mustahil jika
masyarakatnya tetap memakai topeng egoisme. Semua saling sikut, saling
tekel,"ungkap W.Nugroho, yang menulis lirik lagu ini. Ceritanya sendiri berangkat
dari semangat kekeluargaan yang dibangun bangkutaman dengan keluarga besarnya,
yang mana terdiri dari tim manajemen, kru, fotografer, sampai 'Rekan', sebutan
dari fans bangkutaman. "Pada awal band ini terbentuk juga dari semangat
kebersamaan itu tadi, susah dan seneng sama-sama,"ungkap gitaris J.Irwin.
Semangat tidak pandang kelas itu juga yang kemudian diaplikasikan dramer Dedyk
dalam profesinya sebagai pengacara. "Saya tidak membeda-bedakan klien, intinya
saya harus melayani masyarakat,"ungkapnya.  Sebuah bukti bahwa semangat-semangat yang ada
di Catch Me When I Fall tadi benar-benar tidak sebatas lirik, namun juga
tercermin di sikap dalam kehidupan keseharian tiap personilnya. Dan kami harap
semangat kesetaraan, kesetiakawanan dan kebersamaan yang tercermin dalam lagu
Catch Me When I Fall ini bisa tercermin dalam diri pendengar musik di tanah
air.

Bangkutaman
adalah band yang terbentuk di Jogjakarta tahun 1999. Diawaki oleh W.Nugroho
[bas/vokal/harmonika], J.Irwin [ gitar/vokal], Dedyk E. [dram], sepanjang karir
mereka, mereka telah merilis 2 studio album, 2 album kompilasi, 3 buah EP,
serta 4 single kompilasi. Saat ini mereka berada di bawah naungan Jangan Marah
Records.

[creative-radio] Art Threat | Paint & piano reflect Mideast resistance

 

Art Threat | Paint & piano reflect Mideast resistance
Uprising by Sundus Abdul Hadi & Stefan Christoff

* view painting & download piano track at:
http://artthreat.net/2011/04/uprising-sundus-abdul-hadi-christoff/

Artists have been deeply involved in the grassroots uprising across the Middle
East over the past months. In Cairo, where music and song built unity at Tahrir
square as the Egyptian people challenged the dictatorial Mubarak regime,
imagery of the revolutionary ideas that are driving the protests has been
created, posted and remixed across the internet, imagery that will certainly
inspire generations in the future.

In celebration of the profound artwork emerging from the Middle East at this
time of struggle, we present Uprising, a collaborative work mixing painting and
piano. Uprising is an attempt to both cherish and communitcate the libratory
spirit of the contemporary protests across the region, a spirit that stands
with the people on the streets and against the foreign intervention currently
taking place in Libya that sounds horrible echos of colonial pasts.

Uprising is a mixed-media painting by Sundus Abdul Hadi in collaboration with
her sister Tamara Abdul Hadi's photography, in which her flying figures grace
the work. Visuals go hand in hand with my piano composition. Uprising is
inspired by the recent uprisings around the Middle East and aims to contribute
to the growing body of incredible artistic reflections on the current
revolutions happening across the region.

The youth of Tunisia and Egypt have moved the youth of Libya, Iraq, Palestine,
Morocco, Algeria, Bahrain and other countries in the Middle East through the
strength of people power, a deep hope for a better future, and an empowered
sense of self and community. Today's uprisings build on a long history of
popular movements in the region in past centuries, from the uprisings that
challenged European colonial rule, to the ongoing uprising against Israeli
apartheid in occupied Palestine. Ultimately, this painting is a poetic
rendering of Arab youth journeying into a brighter future, souls that have lost
their lives in the fight for collective freedom taking flight, and the living
struggling to make the impossible possible and ultimate deliverance ... if not
