Kapibara return to ABRACADABRA with a new single, ‘Ithemba’, featuring an arresting vocal delivery from Oluhle.  The young French DJ/producer Dorian Craft (Flying Circus/ Glasgow Underground/Stereo Productions) serves up a deep and hypnotic remix.

“After the Mina EP, which we released in 2020 on Abracadabra, we wanted to continue the good feeling we got from this collaboration.  We wanted to amplify the beautiful voice of Oluhle with our music again, and so we came up with our new single, ‘Ithemba’”.

“The meaning of the word ‘Ithemba’ translates as ‘hope’ and is very apt for the positive message in the song, as Oluhle delivers a superb vocal performance around this theme.  
We chose the Cobra for the release artwork because of the symbolism, representing protectiveness and strength.  Hope you enjoy our new single and the great remix that Dorian Craft has delivered”.

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.

Producing an intoxicating blend of Afro/Latin, deep and tech house sounds, French  artist Drush teams up with Oluhle (herself no stranger to Abracadabra) for his  latest release. Having previously released on labels such as Malone’s Hurry Up  Slowly label and the Hong Kong based Calamar Records, Drush tees up the spiritual and warming single ‘Nyakalo’. 

“I produced ‘Nyakalo’ whilst I was on vacation in Spain. I love the work of Oluhle for many years and I always wanted to make a track with her, she has a great soul and  sings with a heart that I love, so I contacted her to work on the track with me. Moojo  sent the track to Viv (Abracadabra) who liked it and played it for the first time in her  Antartica mix, she contacted me straight after to tell me she wanted to sign the  track. I love her productions and the work she does on Abracadabra, so I didn’t  hesitate to accept that proposition!” 

Breaking out of the Parisian electronic music scene, Drush held his first DJ  residency in the French capital at the young age of 18. Since those formative years,  the DJ and producer has clocked up shows across Europe and beyond, fuelled by  his love of dance music and culture that began with a passion for hip hop, soon to  develop into a strong connection to electronic grooves.
