Estelle Remixed by Harald Björk, Anton Kubikov, Sam Willis, Wesley Matsell

Kranglan Broadcast presents three very unique dreamscapes - stories that are diffuse and hard to place in the real world, drawn in such perfection to make us believe they actually took place. The artists this time are two solo artist from a pair of duos - Anton Kubikov (SCSI-9) and Sam Willis (Walls) both with albums out on Kompakt. Willis is also a part of Allez-Allez known for their rave anthem “Defeatist” and remixes of Fever Ray among others. And then last but not laziest Wesley Matsell that we know from Border Community and Studio Barnhus! It is lovely to work with people we know isn't it?

The Russian shaman Anton Kubikov open his secret window into outer space, the bottom of the Artic Ocean or - are we actually inside the head of an old sailor that long ago sailed the seven seas... Now he silent watches the waves calmly roll under a moonlit night in this melancholia, cinematic vocal dub.

In the next chapter Sam Willis pulls the rug from underneath our feets, are we falling? or are we actually flying?. Infact it feels like we are completely still and it's the world that is twirling, things moving in uncertain yet mechanicly precise directions. We are watching the world from inside the eye of a whirlwind, constantly moving, progressing towards euphoria, with bells of glory and off it fades, out of our mind and leaves us with a warm feeling in our bellies and a smile on our lips.

Wesley Matsell sums it all up, telling us the truth of how the world actually was created - painting a perfect portrait of an ancient dawn progressing in ultra rapid motion. The sun spread its beams over a vast landscape surrounded by mountains and valleys. And when suddenly the journey is over, our master throws a stone on the watery surface above our heads and blurs our vision with the most gentle waves.

Kranglan is a part of the Nacka nature reserve southeast of Stockholm. It is distinguished partly by the beavers that suddenly moved in along the lakeshores, partly by the two giant broadcast masts that every night turns the reserve into a never ending light show by spreading its beams in the sky.

When artist Harald Björk was to come up with a name for his record label it was not hard to choose.
