about

A yearly local roundtable for Netlabel Day with a slight change of methodology: instead of a compilation of finished tracks by local artists, we sought the contributions of sounds and layers created from, and inspired by, proposed samples of various xenophobia-adjacent speeches, resulting in a half-hour collage, a sonic adventure into noise, beats, space, and dark ambient drone.

Lagging behind (but soon to come!) is a printed zine with an essay by Miha 'Ntoko' Blažič titled "Protecting the European way of life".

"[This ...] is crucial for understanding xenophobia. [The construction baron] urges the state to intervene and enact agreements and laws that will allow him access to [immigrant] workers under certain conditions. Their residence permits are to be tied to their contracts for as long as possible, so that they are constantly threatened with deportation. Their access to social services should be severely restricted and tied to various conditions (like language tests), so that they cannot survive a day without working. Family reunification should be restricted, because children and wives make the labour force more expensive and tend to take them out of the social seclusion of the workplace. And it goes without saying that the foreign workers should have no political rights and should be kept away from unions as much as possible. They must be monitored, survellied, and kept under control. All these are bureaucratic methods by which the state guarantees the capitalists the conditions for higher profits through super-exploitation. In short, it is a state system of unequal labour rights, distributed on the basis of workers’ nationality. This is the basic function of the border."

— Miha 'Ntoko' Blažič, from liner notes
