We can’t wait to share this episode with you, over an hour of hidden Bside gems from Afrobot’s incredible vinyl collection.

He’s a crate digger in the truest sense of the term, a record collector with an insatiable taste for the unknown exotic, a purveyor of rare treasures from across the globe.
His selections always strive to push musical boundaries while maintaining a warm feeling of the familiar, a hair raising hybrid of styles: 

“The more confusing the better: a krautrock song with traditional ethnic instruments that sounds like an African record; that Nigerian boogie or Turkish disco track that are comparable to an American production and that Bollywood break that is a Kraftwerk copy. In music people have always liked to travel…”

As a DJ for the last 25 years, Afrobot has been sharing his discoveries with the lucky listeners on Rotterdam's dance floors and Red Light Radio air waves. But in the last 5 years his musical journey has taken him further afield; from Dusseldorf’s Salon Des Amateurs to Budapest, from Marakech’s Atlas Electronic to Minimuzikhol in Istanbul, Belgrade’s Klub 20/44 and the Croatian festivals of Dekmantel Selectors and Goulash Disko.

Here’s an episode of purist Bside philosophy: mostly from the ‘other side’ of 7” singles, and tracks that are “different or confronting”; alternative, moody, and ever-engaging.

Not only is Afrobot an excellent DJ and collector, he runs the ever growing label Afrobotic Musicology, with 17 releases each delving into different corners of the globe with different moods. -

He is also a very talented producer, and is known for turning strange undiscovered tracks into club ready bangers. A personal favourite is his edit titled 'Indian Acid' on his '5am' EP  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPNiBA6-LVU

"I think in the A-sides they are often more about celebrating the good things of life, love songs, and B-sides could be more about heart breaks, complaints, sadness, the real life stuff, the B side of life.” - Afrobot

Enjoy!

Out Of Step is the fruit of a collaboration between two cousins: Le Yaqui and Louie G. Together they put out a mix full of ambient, 70's & 80's funk and musica do mundo aimed at bringing joy and excitement in times of despair. The mix is almost 2 hours long and was curated on the sunny Sonoran Balearic beach of Kino Bay.

Bside podcasts

DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records.

We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side:
a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors.
An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between.

Music is for sharing.

'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.
