The Eleusinian Mysteries (Ancient Greek: Ἐλευσίνια Μυστήρια) were mystery religious rites celebrated annually at the shrine of Demeter in the ancient Greek city of Eleusis. The mysteries depicted the myth of Persephone's abduction from her mother Demeter by the king of the underworld Hades, in a three-stage cycle; the descent (loss), the search and the ascent, with the main theme being Persephone's ascent (άνοδος) and reunion with her mother. The Eleusinian mysteries, like Orphism and the Dionysian mysteries, have their remote roots in protohistory, from Cretan, Asian, Thracian traditions, enriched and integrated into a new religious horizon.

Tracklist: Gigi Masin - Still Venetian ambient. Taken from 2014 compilation album "Talk to the Sea". Memotone - Eusapia Loving the balance between electronic and acoustic sounds. Depeche Mode - Barrel Of A Gun (Underworld Soft Mix) One of the two remixes published in 1997. The Hard mix is a testament to Underworld's raving skills. Oneohtrix Point Never - Trance 1 Taken from Brooklyn based producer's "The Station" EP published in 2018. Afterlife - Take Me Inside feat. Danni Minogue (Christophe Goze Mix) Kylie and Danni are a bit like Beyonce and Solange: the less popular one is the one who ends up doing the most interesting things. Roseaux - Mè Ni Wè (feat. Blick Bassy) This 2019 song by French trio benefits from the sumptuous vocals by Cameroonian-born Blick Bassy. Mellow. MARTIN $KY, Oatmello - Different Pages My favorite style of lofi hiphop. Weldon Irvine - Ghetto Lament A moving song by unsung hero Weldon Irvine, recorded live in 1977. Among the first recorded appeareances of Marcus Miller (who was 18 at the time). Joe Henderson - Black Narcissus We don't need to explain the importance of this tune in modern jazz, do we? Pharoah Sanders - Astral Travelling Back when Lonnie Liston Smith was still working on his trademark Fender Rhodes sound. Dedekind Cut - Virtues Airy. Arvo Pärt - Für Alina (Arr. Pat Metheny For 42 String Guitar) Taken from Pat Metheny's latest album "Road to the Sun" published in 2021. Bill Evans - Solo (in Memory of His Father) I've been wanting to include this 12-min improvisation included in "Live at Town Hall" (1966) in a mix for a while. Now's the time. Apple Podcast

Please enjoy the first mix of 2021 - a selection of astral electronic sounds. I've never been a sci-fi fan - up until my favorite blog Wait But Why published a series on Elon Musk and Space X. Also it seems like there's a lot of talk about alien revelations being the next big thing to expect after the pandemic - hence the inspiration for this mix.And to celebrate the new year, I'm introducing a personal commentary for each track.

Tracklist: Alan Hawkshaw - Sky 2Taken from the legendary 1979 album "Frontiers of Science" by British composer Alan Hawkshaw. A deep dive into 70s sci-fi soundtracks. I had no doubt that this was going to be the perfect opening for this mix. V-Vm - The Death Of Rave 090V/Vm is none other than British composer Leyland James Kirby - better known as The Caretaker. In 2006 he released a monster release of 200+ compositions intended as a requiem to the golden age of rave. It sounds dark, spastic and beautifully haunting. Stars of the Lid - GasfarmingOne of the quietest tunes of 2001 drone classic "Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid". William Basinski - 4(E+D04(ER=EPR)First heard on a Ryuichi Sakamoto mix for Warp Records. Astral. Gas - Pop 4Circular. Sawako - Cloud No CrowdClassic reverse moods from this Tokyo-based female composer. In The Branches - GravityEndless guitar. Mr. YT - SouvenirThe only beatless track included in the excellent 2017 "Brand New Day" EP. Amba - MoonbathingThis track probably needs no introduction, but it's a good reminder of the uber talent of mr Tom Middleton. Neuronphase - RawdustI wasn't sure whether to include this or Sawdust - essentially the same composition with some added drums. The progression sounds dangerously similar to Linkwood's "Love Lost". Missing Soul - Regard (Ron Trent Remix)Ron Trent is infinite Larry Heard - Summertime BreezeI had my Larry Heard passion moment around ten years ago. While the first half is as exotic and mysterious as it sounds, the sudden change in chord progression around the 3 min mark feels like a warm hugh from a distant friend. Apple Podcast

Corsica One is turning 2 years old! I want to express my gratitude to all listeners as well as old and new friends including the very talented magrosi65, Lauge and Calm Pills who delighted us with their special mixes. Shout out to Radio Raptz who has been hosting my Kimchi shows. Here's to you a special 2-hour mix featuring highlights from the last 12 months. Comparing this year's mixes to the previous ones, I realized that the sound of Corsica One has been evolving. A lot of the exotic, "world" vibes have gone, leaving room to a more urban landscape. I guess that the pandemic and the impossibility to travel gave me no other choice but to look for inspiration in the streets of my city.

Santana being one of my early heroes I've been meaning to record this mix for a long time. Most of the music featured here is taken from what I consider to be his best and most inspired albums: Caravanserai, Welcome, Lotus, Illuminations (with Alice Coltrane), Love, Devotion, Surrender (with John McLaughlin). I was always fascinated by his conversion from rockstar to devout follower of an Indian guru, and his coincident shift towards jazz. I should probably credit my interest in eastern philosophies to him as well. Tracklist: Carlos & French Journalist - 1971 Interview Santana - Dance Sister Dance Santana- Going Home Santana - Singing Winds, Crying Beasts Carlos Santana & Alice Coltrane - Angel of Air / Angel of Water Santana - Yours is the Light Santana - Incident at Neshabur (Live) Santana - Song of the Wind Carlos Santana & Mahavishnu John McLaughlin - Let Us Go Into the House of the Lord Santana - Aspirations Santana - Mantra Carlos Santana & Mahavishnu John McLaughlin - Meditation Santana - Aqua Marine (Live) Santana - Waves Within Carlos Santana & Alice Coltrane - Angel of Sunlight Santana - Welcome Devadip Carlos Santana - Song for Devadip Carlos Santana - Blues for Salvador Apple Podcast

Here's something different for Corsica One listeners. I've always loved bands such as Casiopea and Yellow Magic Orchestra and I was introduced to City Pop few years ago through a mix by Ed Motta which opened my ears to a whole new world. So this 90 min selection gathers my favorite city pop classics (so far), along some jazzier numbers. And despite the temptation I didn't include Plastic Love. :) Tracklist: Yuji Ohno and Masa Matsuda - Midspace Action Taeko Ohnuki - 4 A.M.
