Dronica #59 - Dronica Meets Penelope Trappes

Nicola Serra, founder of East London's experimental music festival Dronica, presents new and archival material.

In this episode, Dronica meets Penelope Trappes.

Deva in Sanskrit means "heavenly, divine, anything of excellence". It is this mantra, sublimely interpreted within Alice Coltrane’s track Deva Deva, that I wanted to be the focus for my mix. The state of the world right now is beyond words. I hope that the music within this mix can remind us all to hold onto Love and show us that it still exists.

The first hour I have collated artists who inspire me to continue to look to the light. The last half is my Mother’s Blood album.
I believe it is the power of creativity that unites us all in life. I dedicate this mix to the people of the Ukraine and to world peace.
