A higher plain of consciousness is chartered during ‘Imbongi’, the new collaborative single between breakthrough Moroccan musical prodigy Jalal Ramdani, and UK afro house activist Mr. Silk. Featuring Africa’s majestic vocalist Lizwi, and with remixes by two afro house heavyweights, Enoo Napa and FNX OMAR, this compelling EP gets a long awaited release on BLOND:IDSH’s ABRACADABRA label.
 
The duo already released an infectious blockbuster last summer, “SESA”, that stole the show and was heavily supported by Keinemusik and Black Coffee.
 
The Imbongi, in African tradition, is a composer and orator of poems praising a lover, a chief or other
figureheads, and on this fresh production, positive musical magic is teased from every pore, as Jalal and Silk’s hypnotising production lets Lizwi’s vocal soar high above the transcendental groove. Speaking about the collaboration, Jalal divulges “Imbongi came about when myself and Silk were running afro-house events in London during the end of 2019, so the idea of a collaboration surfaced in between these events. The goal was to showcase a track where we blend the modern groove of house music with the traditional touches of our African heritage (I grew up in Marrakech, and Silk has African origins). We finally decided to materialise the project in my London studio in June 2020 during lockdown. It was done quickly, 3 to 4 days, as there were no distractions due to lockdown. The vocals are in Zulu language and portray a poet, the Imbongi, who recited all his love poems to his lady. We sent the original to Enoo and FNX, who gifted us with masterpiece remixes a month later.”
 
Remixes come courtesy of Enoo Napa, who has impressed via previous releases and mixes for Madoras, King Street Sounds and Go Deeva Records, and also a version from FNX OMAR, another Moroccan mastermind, whose credentials include remixes for Stereo Productions, Spinnin’ Deep and MoBlack Records.
 
Jalal Ramdani has also released music on Madoras, Connected and Moblack, amid this recent tour in Latin America/Art Basel, and upcoming performance in the legendary BPM festival.

Veteran DJ/producer and music engineer Emanuele Esposito joins MoBlack, delivering the latest chapter to the label’s vast-evolving saga. Narrated through South African vocalist Mavhungu's riveting balladry, “Tuwani,” a plea for solace and surrender, journeys to deep, tellurian rhythms and introspective symphonies. Swelling intuitive melodies, penetrating instrumentals, and astral riffs, MBR480 – “Tuwani” or “Leave Now”  is a testimony of deliverance, an unremitting passage through the limber currents of House and the curative cadence of musical poetry.

The Angels And Shrii  - Feeling Good {HMWL}

Music to make people dance with big smiles on their faces. With a penchant for strong groovy base and melodies with "a nice bit of tension", Arkadyan and Demayä set about work on their collaborative E.P. Esperanza: “In an early mix of the title track, we used a sample of Manu Chao’s voice, saying ‘esperanza, esperanza’, but a chance encounter in Dubai with mezzo soprano vocalist Yana Mann changed the course of the E.P. Inspired by the trumpet melody and the beat, Yana Mann came up with a vocal line and the result was a one-shot success. One enlightening taxi ride with Jean Claude Ades later and things started falling into place. The result is a miniature collection of “octopus rhythms”, with organic percussion and electronic beats jostling for attention with a plethora of live instruments and on-the-road pocket-mic field recordings.

An all-star cast assemble for the latest single release on BLOND:ISH’s Abracadabra label, with Band&Dos collaborating with Aaron Sevilla on the production, and featuring Toshi on vocals. ‘Sobe’ breezes through with hypnotic percussion and emotive melodies, as Toshi’s vocal performance is a sweet as the sun!
Venezuelan duo Band&Dos have been responsible for some sizzling releases on Triangular Recordings, Hurry Up Slowly and Tortuga Tribes, and on ‘Sobe’ have teamed up with Aaron Sevilla, the Mexican DJ & producer who has lit up the Afro House charts with prodigious tunes for TRANSA, Sunset Gathering and Nervous Records.
Speaking of this new collaboration, Sevilla explains “Band&dos and I were talking about collaborating for a long time and we decided that when we do it, we should do something really important, so we decided to bring someone as important as Toshi, the number one singer in the Afro House scene, to do the vocals. Lyrically, the narrative is along the lines of ‘I won’t make a fool out of myself, I'll never take advantage of myself’ which we think is a very strong message”.
