VA - Twenty Years Deep - a 20th anniversary retrospective of Gilles Peterson's label Brownswood Recordings

Brownswood Recordings mark two decades of boundary-pushing independent music with Twenty Years Deep, a limited-edition compilation celebrating the label’s rich, global catalogue and enduring influence. Founded in 2006 by broadcaster, DJ, and cultural tastemaker Gilles Peterson, Brownswood has spent the last 20 years championing forward-thinking artists who sit just left of centre: rooted in Afro-diasporic music, but never confined by genre. Twenty Years Deep is a snapshot of that journey: a carefully curated collection spanning the label’s early breakthroughs, cult classics, and defining moments. Twenty Years Deep brings together tracks that reflect Brownswood’s long-standing commitment to artistic freedom, musical lineage, and future-facing sounds. From deep jazz explorations and dancefloor mutations to global collaborations and genre-defying hybrids, the compilation captures the connective thread that has defined the label since day one: trust in artists and belief in music that lasts. Rather than a greatest-hits exercise, Twenty Years Deep functions as an archive and a statement documenting how Brownswood has maintained its own point of view. By following a highly instinctive approach to A&R the label has shaped music culture, introduced new voices, and built a catalogue that continues to resonate well beyond release cycles.

Don't mind the anatomy, I'm barely figuring this whole thing out HAHAHA but for one of my drawing practices I wanted to make a scene of a story I'm writing, it's a mixture of the world of Epic with the world of How To Train Your Dragon <3 <3 <3

@morpheus-tt is the responsable one for fueling this wonderful idea, I love my friend <3 <3 <3

Antinous' dragon is a female Skrill and his final design it may not be very clear here, but it's the one of my own

The Night fury with Tele is sweet old Argos <3 <3 <3 Baby takes the protagonist role here as well HAHAHA <3 <3 <3 and Telemachus' physical design in the story is fully described as Soonsoonii's one

Ekova was a French-based musical trio, headed by American-born Dierdre Dubois, who originated the name. "Its roots are in echo, and ova, signifying the feminine side," she explains. "But it's not supposed to have a literal meaning, just a beautiful sound. I wanted a word I'd never heard before."

Much of her vocalizations share the linguistic experimentalism/artistry of the group's name, with occasional Celtic, English, and Persian utterances floating in between largely nonsensical syllables, as well as influences from Irish and English folk music.

During its existence, the group consisted of American singer and cellist Dierdre Dubois, Iranian percussionist and clarinetist Arash Khalatbari, and Algerian oud (oriental lute) player Mehdi Haddab. wikipedia.org

As long as you are standing, give a hand to those who have fallen. Persian Proverb

"Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself." ― Rumi

"If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?" ― Rumi

mirror = your mind, your spirit, your soul, your consciousness.

"The art of knowing is knowing what to ignore." ― Rumi

Ignore what? Every rub.

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." ― Rumi

"We carry inside us, the wonders we seek outside us." ― Rumi

wonders = the peace of mind, the satisfaction, the contentment, the joy, the happiness, the wellbeing, the non-egoic Love.
