Mina made a name for herself DJing in packed, smoky basements in Leeds, playing an exciting blend of afrobeats, dancehall and tropical sounds from all over the world. She quickly began channeling her influences from West Africa, the Caribbean and her native UK as she took her first steps into music production, creating an unique take on global club music that has earned her a coveted spot on FACT’s ‘Producers to watch in 2016’ feature. 

After putting up several originals and remixes up on her Soundcloud page, she teamed up with Italian producer Lorenzo BITW for her first release ‘Tombura’, which came out in 2015 on LA-based label Friends of Friends, paving the way for her official debut EP ‘Kabala’ on Enchufada. 

Inspired by her travels in Sierra Leone, where she visited the town of Kabala for an unforgettable New Years Eve party on top of a mountain, Mina steps forward with two original tracks - including a collaboration with Freetown-based producer Sillati - energized by her wide range of tropical influences to firmly define her musical identity. On New Patan (feat. Sillati) and Pineapples & Qumquats we’re served a slowed-down take on UK Funky riddims, afrobeats syncopations and grime-inspired synthetic bass lines, resulting in a joyful and captivating debut EP that is simultaneously electronic and organic.

English brothers Mark and Clive Ives were not even ten years old when they formed their first band together. Inspired by the music of the Beatles, the duo, along with a couple of friends, thrashed around on an old drum kit and some guitars in a South London garage, playing for anybody who would listen. Sadly the original foursome parted ways but many years later the brothers began recording together again as Woo, the group responsible for this week’s exceptional Métron Musik Mixtape.

Aged 13, Mark was given a clarinet by his uncle and soon taught himself how to play. His younger brother Clive bought a Roland synthesiser half a dozen years after that and it was then that they began recording music together for the first time. They released their debut LP in the early 1980’s, continuing to release records in the decades that followed. Though they often received critical acclaim the band never really found a home for their unique sound, often self-releasing their LPs to a cult following. But things changed for the band in 2012 when the excellent Drag City records reissued their 1989 album ‘It’s Cosy Inside’. All of a sudden people began to take notice and Woo’s work received closer attention, culminating in a run of reissues including most recently ‘Awaawaa’ which was reissued this year by the excellent Palto Flats imprint. It was this record which led me to the bands music for the first time and I was immediately intrigued by what I heard. A collection of tracks recorded between 1976 and 1982, the music sounded to me like it could just as easily have been made in 2016 as 1986, this timeless and unique quality is very much a part of the charm Woo possesses in abundance.

Their sound is instantly recognisable to those who have heard the band before, their blend of trippy, obscure, 'folk-jazz' has been described as '‘Eno-esque’’ and  ‘’like Pop music from another universe’’ and it’s an apt description of this weeks Métron Musik Mixtape, a retrospective look across their many releases. When I spoke with Clive he said he wanted to compile a mixtape that reflected the bands  creative journey over the many decades they have been recording together. They decided to take a single track from 14 of their records dating all the way back to their brilliantly titled debut ‘Whichever Way You Are Going, You Are Going Wrong’ and present them in a single flowing mixtape. The results are wonderful and eclectic, showcasing the depth of sonic textures, musical cultures and singular  songwriting techniques the band have perfected over the years. 

For me their music plays out like an animated dream from an Ari Folman movie. A kind of magical and surreal trip into an imaginary realm where the colours are brighter and more beautiful, where your senses are forever overwhelmed. I really have fallen in love with their music, so it gives me great pleasure to present a retrospective look at Woo, a band any music lover should get the chance to listen to.

All the tracks selected in this mixtape, and the records that they come from, are available for purchase on Woo’s Bandcamp page. The link is listed below. You can see the tracklist for the mix, as well as an interview with Woo by clicking the Métron button below the player.
