Petit Edit d'une chansonnette qui, à mon goût, manquait de baaass.

Untitled #1 - Ocelote Rojo (Alizarina Edit)

Brooklyn's singer/songwriter/force of nature Wolkoff has teamed up with renowned NYC producer Atropolis to share their heavy new track “He’s A Lizard” (SoundCloud). This single is for all you Valentine's Day resistors and survivors of love gone awry.

The two approached the song as a stylistic homage to the spirit of dancehall; with a syncopated 1/16th note rhythm that sets the stage for staccato horns and short stabby chords to accent the mesmerizing kick and bass.

At more intimate moments, Atropolis harnesses the production through dreamlike synths. A fan of using clinking coins and smashing glass for claps in his drum kits, he accents the jam with shattering bottles which carries its own symbolic weight in the context of Wolkoff's uneasy lyrics and composition.

Wolkoff, the eponymous e-pop project from Brooklyn’s own Joanie Wolkoff, is fresh off a prolific 2016, which saw the release of her critically acclaimed debut album Without Shame (SoundCloud + Spotify), along with the release of her second collaborative single “Me & Mine” (SoundCloud) with The Hood Internet, and the long-awaited second GEMOLOGY single, “Come Around” (SoundCloud). She’s already hard at work on the follow-up to Without Shame, which will be out later this year… stay tuned!

This is Wolkoff’s first collaboration with Atropolis, who adeptly balances trained expression in classical piano and jazz guitar in a transcendent blend of ethnomusicology. Having collaborated with international artists like Midival Punditz (India), Dom La Nena (Brazil), Madosini (South Africa), and co-producing a remix for grammy award winning artists Celia Cruzand Willie Colon, Atropolis now joins forces with Wolkoff to bring you this chameleonic track.

Born in the dark streets of Cairo, grown to the unforgettable forests of Santa Esmeralda, spending its teen years in Bombay and Tangier markets, mature into the deep spacey Jungle of Ghana we proudly present you a new label from the land of the pyramids: SHANGO RECORDS invites you to an unheard world music psychedelic trip: like through a colorful kaleidoscope we will melt down Indian and Pakistani Vibes, Arab-Tek and Oriental groovy vibes, Afro-Beat rhythms n' pieces, Cumbia Tropicana flavors and cosmic Ghetto-Latin vibes into forbidden sounds of frenzied electronic dancefloor rituals. Outside traditional paths these driving grooves and polyphonic structures take the adventure seeking dancer to Dionysian highs and places never been before. 

Prince of Morocco sounds from the big city: AkizzBeatzz. The night spirit master is reflecting the power of Gnawa, a cultural and social distinctiveness rooted in West Africa, flourished in Morocco by way of migration, both voluntary and forced.  From Senegal to Chad, from Mali in the North to Nigeria in the South Gnawa population originated from black West Africa. The enslaved people from the old Ghana kingdom (north of Mali), the great market of Djenne, the mystic order which marks exclusiveness, the ancestral memory , the artistic and spiritual parallels with the Bori in Nigeria, the Stambouli in Tunisia, the Sambani in Libya, the Bilali in Algeria, the Vodou in Caribbean….Across the path of the night, there is no doubt that AkizzBeatzz retain the spiritual authority and the source of inspiration that suggests the possibility of redemption for all sufferers. BARU, SIBU and KELLIE SAKKAKU are his messengers. They spread the electronic vibe by inviting you to a mystical journey through mysterious and unknown worlds.

Atropolis represents a sonic city of transcultural boom. A native of New York, his blood blends the village heat of Cyprus, the lore of Northern Europe, and the mysticism of the Maori. Stirring with a degree in composition, Atropolis mixes trained expression in classical piano and jazz guitar in a pot of ethnomusicology. His alchemical fusion transcends over dance floors, grounding ears in the rhythms of their global body.
