We’re incredibly excited to announce the upcoming release of EXIRE by RAGAMATIC. 

EXIRE combines classic Hindustanic ragas with otherworldly sounds and rhythms to create a soundscape unique to both West and East. 

EXIRE will be released later this spring as a limited-run cassette and digitally everywhere. Ragamatic is classically trained sitarist, Reiner Heidorn of Germany.

I told ya I would come back to Ragamatic ;)

It just so happen that they are very prolific on Soundcloud these last days, and they have a cool story.

Let’s see : 

For the “Hypnosis” album (which got us all hooked up), Ragamatic was a duet, composed of electro-musician-professional-surfer Mario Niemuth and classically-trained-sitar-player-multi-instrumentist-painter Reiner Heidorn.

Now Reiner Heidorn works solo, as Mario Niemuth went back to Mexico to see the waves. The project still has the same motto, though : Short Indian ragas excerpts that /sing/ for electro pieces.

Did you know that the classical training of sitar players is only done by master-to-apprentice training and takes 4 to 6 hours a day of practice? It explains why one of my first thoughts on the Ragamatic project was “damn, this music has an incredible sensibility in its musicality” : he basically spends more time creating sounds than sleeping, gosh.

Hallo Weilheim! Ring me a bell if you tour in München :)
