Antropoceno - No Ritmo da Terra - from Brazil, an amazing fusion of musical styles and traditions
“No Ritmo da Terra” is the second chapter from a trilogy of albums inspired in the work of Ailton Krenak. Articulating the “Ancestral Future” as an aesthetic project, the album incorporates Ailton’s philosophy through its sound design, manipulating Brazilian Folk Music elements and field recordings from the Amazon rainforest with futuristic electronic techniques from genres like Post-Rock, Glitch and Avant-Garde Metal. With lyrics in Portuguese, Tupi and Yoruba, the album recontextualizes Candomblé and Capoeira chants through an idiossyncratic sound palette developed to create a dialogue between ancestrality and futurism. As an imediate need in the face of climate change and other end of the world omens, the Ancestral Future challenges antropocentric views of the world that conceive humanity as an organism separate from the body of Earth. Through the recovery of resistance technologies developed by the cultures that remained attached to the planet as a necessity of survival from the erasure of subjectivities in the colonial process, “No Ritmo da Terra” promotes an ontological realignation with nature.

Antropoceno - Ayaba Oxum
La humanidad está dejando una huella tan profunda en la Tierra que muchos científicos hablan ya de una nueva época geológica: el Antropoceno. Plásticos, residuos industriales y señales nucleares serán rastros visibles durante millones de años. También lo será la pérdida acelerada de biodiversidad provocada por nuestras actividades. Un recordatorio claro de que el futuro del planeta depende de las decisiones humanas de hoy.
El impacto de la humanidad en el planeta ya es irreversible.

🤯 Словаки відстріляють 350 ведмедів через напад одного, до якого люди самі підійшли.
"Ми не можемо жити у країні, де люди бояться ходити до лісу" — заявив премʼєр-міністр країни Роберт Фіцо.
На його шовіністично-популістичну риторику вже відреагували місцеві природоохоронні організації, які шоковані планами вбивства чверті ведмедів у країні – пише ВВС. Наразі в Словаччині проживає близько 1300 ведмедів. Плани відстрілу вже погодили.
