Italian based project Vito Lalinga (Vi Mode Inc. Project) is back with his new album 'Guru in the Jungle'. In this new release the artist exposes nine brand new and freshly produced tracks under the fundamentals of afro and funk. 

The album has an elegant vibe through all nine tunes, from warm and organic tones, to fusion style and grooves with fat beats and an overall jazz and latin vibe. What is not missing, but mostly dominates here, is the modern deep funk style cooked up well with African and Latin root genres. 

'Guru in the Jungle' gives a pleasant way to listen, feel, breathe and get a groove on with deep and energising songs constructed under a modern mid tempo dance floor concept.

Guru in the Jungle

2. Vito Lalinga (Vi Mode Inc. Project) - Nzuri

Singer and producer Brazen Rule comes from the city Lira in northern Uganda. He won the Pearl of Africa Music Awards for Northern Artist of the Year, was given 4 times the title as best producer at the Lango Entertainment Awards and was also chosen best northern Reggae artist of the year. He made himself a name as one of the most humble artists in the north because his lyrics are centered about the everyday people that hustle from day to day to earn a living, the market women, the single mothers or the orphans that were raised after the war in the north. 

Ancient Astronauts connected with Brazen Rule in 2017 when DOGU was part of the Rhythm Is Life Tour 2017 in northern Uganda and Brazen was one of the attendees of the workshop in Lira. For the final compilation of this tour he recorded the lyrics for “Bad Muje” to an older beat by Ancient Astronauts and Poldoore. And that version of “Bad Muje” became a big hit in northern Uganda and now people call Brazen Rule “Bad Muje” since that day. It is a saying for an older respected person, one with experience and skills.

But that original version of “Bad Muje” was never officially released. It only came out on the free download compilation of the Rhythm Is Life Tour 2017 that is available on Bandcamp. So for the upcoming label compilation “20 years Fantastic Freeriding” Kabanjak and DOGU of Ancient Astronauts decided to produce a new riddim for the song and give it a proper official release. And here it is!

Introducing Lavashark, an LA based trio channelling a live analogue sound that borrows from the Illinois blues of Muddy Waters, as much as it does to the maverick electronica of Aphex Twin. At the heart of the group lies their live performance, a place where raw synth lines and brooding vocals form a safe haven away from the digital age.

++++++++++++   INSTRUMENTAL VERSION   +++++++++++

ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS' musical journey which took off with „WE ARE TO ANSWER“ and continued with „INTO BASS AND TIME“ now enters another sphere: The duo's all-new remix compilation „THEMES FROM TOMORROWLAND“ rounds up a strong circle of producers from all corners of the earth for dedicated interpretations of both albums' retro-futurist grooves.

Whether hailing from the US (DDAY ONE, NICKODEMUS, MAKER), the UK (DIESLER), France (AZAXX, HUGO KANT), Greece (CAYETANO, FLECK, KILL EMIL), Slovenia (JK SOUL) or the ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS' homebase of Germany (PROTASSOV, RAZOOF) – the featured remixers have all been chosen for the friendship and admiration they've shared with the 'nauts.

Based on the ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS' original material recorded with notable voices such as AKUA NARU, ASPHATE, AZEEM, BAJKA, MONSOON, RAASHAN AHMAD or THE PHARCYDE, the remixing artists present their soundscapes, ranging from dubby DOWNTEMPO GROOVES through eclectic JAZZ BREAKS, hefty DUB and DANCEHALL or slamming DRUM & BASS to downright HIP HOP.

The single new ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS track on „THEMES FROM TOMORROWLAND“ is its opener alongside rapper ASPHATE and cuts from DJ TOUCHNICE of the US crew MAXILLA BLUE: „THE ENEMY WITHIN“ is setting the scene for the album's innovative, colourful spectrum of grooves and sounds which is, in the end, so ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS.

Production duo ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS have announced the release of their latest single, ‘Tebamanyi feat. MoRoots’ on the 6th of November. The single is taken from their groundbreaking Afro-European album ZIK ZAK, which will be released on the 22nd of January 2021 via Switchstance Recordings and features a variety of rising African musicians. The album was preceded by the noteworthy Kampala Fire EP and the single Ziinga Zanram. 

Ugandan born and London based MoRoots is a fast-rising singer, songwriter, composer, saxophonist, classical pianist who is currently making waves across both continents. The songstress has been supported by several publications including Bella Naija, New Vision, The New Times, Chimp Reports, The Observer and Sofar Sounds.

ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS find inspiration in a variety of styles, including the likes of Madlib, Apollo Brown, Clutchy Hopkins, RJD2, King Tubby, Lee Perry, Dubmatix, Stone Love, J Dilla, Augustus Pablo, Midnite, DJ Premiere, Pete Rock and 9th Wonder. However, ‘Tebamanyi feat. MoRoots’ sits closer to the likes of the production stylings of Thievery Corporation, Kruder & Dorfmeister, the haunting string work of Portishead and Quakers (Katalyst) the while the vocals call to mind the powerful likes of Amy Winehouse and Mary J. Blige. 

Radiating with strong feminism and bold vocals, ‘Tebamanyi feat. MoRoots’ is made with deep grooves that keep the listener entranced. An “in-your-face, I-don’t-care”  attitude opens the single. However, instead of allowing this rhythm to dominate the single, there is a deep sense of refinement and precision within the vocals that is only further accentuated by the production stylings of ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS.

ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS tell us a little about the joys of working with MoRoots, “She has such an amazing voice and her lyrics are just pure honesty, nothing played or acted. She is just being herself. None of that fake artist character created for the world of Instagram and such, she is pure artistry and a phenomenal voice in one person.”

Ancient Astronauts - Tebamanyi feat. MoRoots

The Ancient Astronauts are Kabanjak and Dogu, a bulletproof production and DJ duo hailing from Cologne, Germany. The phenomenon of “ancient astronauts, “a belief that extraterrestrial beings visited Earth in ancient times to mingle and trade ideas with early human civilizations”, isn’t an alien concept to these Ancient Astronauts.  The cross-pollination and mash-up of ideas, sounds, styles, and a collaborative spirit are their modus operandi.
Although, the long-time friends are quick to admit that they are not followers of the German music scene, Kabanjak notes, “for us music is and will always be an international phenomena”, and Ancient Astronauts are certainly not afraid to draw on influences from international artists and styles.
Self described as a “mash up of the distant past and far future”; these time travelers´ music is a mystic brew born out of an eclectic mix of ideas, sounds and styles. 
Already having remixed and collaborated with AM & Shawn Lee, Nickodemus, Fort Knox Five, Ladybug Mecca (Digable Planets), Zion I, The Pharcyde, Azeem, Analogik, Subatomic Sound System & Anthony B, Bajka, Vieux Farka Toure, Raashan Ahmad, Bajka, DJ Brace and Tippa Irie, the Ancient Astronauts always link up with a quality selection of sonic collaborators. 
 “At an early stage we realized that we are both big music heads so we started running parties in our hometown together”. Those parties became the catalyst for a production team that never forgot its roots. They specialize in diversity loosely glued together by a single thread. Like a good party, you don’t just listen to the music, you experience it. 
In 2001 Dogu of Ancient Astronauts started his own label Switchstance Recordings, which was developed as a way of allowing them total musical freedom. The label soon gathered momentum and built up an impressive international fan base. Switchstance Recordings is now famous in international club circles for the integrity of its production and style.
