about

Between the Zuri brannt riots and the Needle Park catastrophe, two events that occurred in the eighties in Zurich and that have been underlined in the previous two DDP releases, have unfortunately backlashed in today’s world yet have also been sublimated by others in various cultural endeavours.

On a different note: “The edible seed of the cashew fruit is native to tropical climates that is rich in tryptophan, a neurochemical that our bodies turn into serotonin.”

These two subject matters, seemingly unrelated, have been channelled into one person — coinciding to make room for relief from a transformed dystopian-like era. Found from this dark period is a modern-day character that brings to the surface these once very present issues. The music and topical form that occur within this release have been created by Don Kashew, a self-described troubadour who acts as a supplier of your favourite natural antidepressant as well as an eternal fanboy to music from the past, present and future.

Don Kashew can be found either helping the Zurcher community or spinning records regularly in der Kern. The anecdotal form that this edition takes shape is the fact that Don is a city council whose department is to aid in the organisation of the clean up from the consequences of the aforementioned sociological issues. Don Kashew refutes these questions with sounds that evoke feelings of longing for another world captured in a modern time. Don Kashew’s music also refers to the irony of capitalistic studies and of the monotonous dullness that life presents. With these two aspects, merged together in a swirl, the music within this release is at the time whimsical and ironic, mature yet underlined with childlike humour. This compilation of past works is a reflection of Don’s sound development, affected through time and change, environment and empathy, diligence and insouciance, carefully packaged and influenced by his creative procedure.
