They are currently working from a gas station supplying herbal medicine to thousands of refugees passing by every day. Herbal medicine is widely known and used in Europe and they reported some women crying at the sight of Valerian tincture on arrival. You can read more about their work here.
This compilation Is dedicated to Ellen Percival aka DJ Mooncup who passed away suddenly on Friday 6th May 2022. It is just one of the countless projects and heartfelt manifestations of creativity, activism and love of plants and humans that emanated and continue to emanate from their being. We love you so much. Nothing compares to you.
All people on this comp have a connection with plants and mushrooms that runs deeper than we could fit on this 2hr 50 minutes of herbal dreamscapes and poisoned lucid haze. This female and non-binary line-up acts as an adaptogen to the patriarchal imbalances that poison like venom and can result in pointless wars and destruction. And so we remedy with an Attorlaðe, “poison-hater”. A herbal spell that purifies and lets feminine and non-binary voices be heard.
Artwork featured on the t-shirt and cover design was drawn by Ellen’s friends. Ellen was a botanist and mycologist who would point out and describe in great detail the properties of any plant they came across. May we all strive to learn more about plants and mushrooms to make the world a better place.
"This herb is called stune, she grew on stone,
Stands against poison, stands against pain,
Strong she is called, she stands against poison.
She avenges herself on the malignant one, casts out poison."
