Esa and I (along with Shingai Shoniwa) arrived in Cuba in Feb 2014 to perform live at the inaugural Havana World Music Festival. Partly inspired by Mala’s 2013 album ‘Mala in Cuba’, we managed to book a couple of days of studio time in Havana, hosted by the Laboratorio Nacional de Música Electroacústica.


On the Saturday evening, we were invited to perform at “Villalon” - a weekly free party open for all and regularly attracting crowds of 2000+. A big soundsystem is erected in a public square and the local house DJs play music for 4 hours or so every week. We would be the 2nd non-Cuban act  (after Mala) to perform and, as we were due to play live as well as DJ, were required to be interviewed in order to ensure we would be the right fit for the party. 

Having past this ‘test’, word spread by text message that we were playing so we turned up to find well over 4000 people had turned up, a lot of them wearing British flags in support (a sight we’d never seen before!). The gig went well and over the course of the day and night, we met a whole host of local musicians who we invited to the studio later the week. 

We didn’t know who we would see at the studio but were pleasantly surprised that a handful of the musicians we’d met had made it – amazing talent on trumpet, vocals, percussion and keys. In the evening after the first days session, I chopped up some of the percussion and trumpets we’d recorded and made a simple loop. When we returned the next day, I gave the loop to Eric Alejandro and asked him to come up with a vocal for it. 

We’d agreed to appear on Cuban Music Television later that afternoon so were limited with time. With only ten minutes to go of the final session, Eric said he’d come up with the lyrics for the loop. So we set up some mics and played the loop for six minutes. He recorded the vocal in one take and absolutely smashed it. We managed to beg for another ten minutes of studio time so we could record a second take and ended up being able to add trumpets too. The track became ‘Die Bailando’, a 12 minute Rhumba-jam. 

Many thanks to everyone at the Institute, to the British Council, British Embassy and to the musicians who performed on the release. In particular, Julian, Rhys, Will @ Lake of Stars Festival, Hugo, Usmani @ Casa Vitrales, Erlend and everyone at HWM, Teresa, Shingai, Eric, Yissy, Jorge, Julio and everyone at the LNME.

Brian d’Souza / Auntie Flo Dec 2014.

The Highlife World Series is a collaborative series of releases by UK-based Brian d’Souza aka Auntie Flo and Esa Williams. The first three parts are to be released in quick succession in early 2015, beginning with Cuba, followed by Kenya and finishing with Uganda. Each release features original songs produced in collaboration with local musicians. All proceeds from each release will be sent back to the respective countries in order to fund further musical production costs in years to come. We will also be seeking various ways to distribute the music in each country so the music is freely available for the musicians to use at home.


Mother Theresa (Clip)

“From the very first beginning we knew that this song is going to be the album opener. Audego's stunning voice lets you slip into the album like a perfectly fitting, cosy jacket!” - Michael Fakesch und Chris de Luca (Funkstörung)

Funkstörung "Fall Into You (feat. Audego)"

Kindness Mix Nº2 (Night to Night)

Amazing how well Dancing In The Corner goes over the Drop It Like It's Hot beat. 

Dancing Snoop Mashup

Super not-secret summer business from the Lobster family. Four luscious, beach-coasting, jet-skiing tracks inspired by the soul of Detroit via Manchester producer Hidden Spheres.

Vocal tracks that undulate with 'mmm's and 'uuuh's for the real deal summer feel. Sweeping Rhode lines, organic percussion to make the thumbs raw and those deep, woofing basses that just keep on giving.

Hidden Spheres going for the jugular. Melting the sun like butter on a roasting-hot lobster.

Never been so inside it
When I give in to you
Never been so existing
You can't know unless you feel it

Come back
Body's aching
From the want and the waiting
I get this pain when you're leaving 
Never felt this before
Never felt this before

Is it written on my back?
Take it back and then let it go
Let it go
Is it written on my back?
Take it back and then let it go

Every day is the day that you save me
Light into darkness
Cut on the sharpness of you

Never been so inside it
And fallen into ya
Never been so resisting
You can't know unless you feel it

Come back
Body's aching
From the want and the waiting
Coming down with a sickness
Staying in control
Steady and in control

Is it written on my back?
Take it back and then let it go
Let it go
Is it written on my back?
Take it back and then let it go

Every day is the day that you save me
Light into darkness
Cut on the sharpness of you

I want to love you, baby

After a successful run of singles on Tru Thoughts in 2014, Titeknots is back with brand new club cuts to launch his new label Press Something Play Something.

In a short time Titeknots has made large strides, putting his mark in the House scene with a sound that blends cut and paste rough and ready Hip Hop production techniques with House tempos. Finding a delicate balance between musicality and functional dancefloor production, the previous Titeknots releases instantly grabbed the attention of some heavy hitters in the club world. Check out some of their reactions below:

• Todd Edwards – “This is one of the most solid EPs I’ve heard in a while”
• DJ Zinc - “This stuff is great”
• Dimitri From Paris – “A fresh breeze just refreshed my sore ears”
• Friend Within – “Sounds fresh and not like anything else about at the moment”

This new material continues where those 2014 releases left off. With the new tracks drawing from a varied sound palette and demonstrating a desire to play around with traditional club track structures. 

“Buzzard Walk” is a calling card for the Titeknots sound. With his original string parts chopped and layered until they sound like a loop lifted from a record, they sit on top of a driving drum track and solid bass, carrying a piece of pastoral English beauty into the club environment.

This feels like a nice time to share this unreleased track, as February 14th traditionally represents the beginning of spring, growth and flowers. The Day Of Love was originally March 12th... but Flowers became Love, and Love became Flowers.
