Nice, good angle on the twist up, Nigerian Disco flaves for the win!

Captain Planet Remixes

Debut release for @canopy.records

Captain Planet propels the track into the 21st century teaming up with the horn section, keys and synth from the Ibibio Sound Machine players to inject maximum flavour and depth. Replayed bass, hefty bottom end, slick drum enhancements and added groove elements result in dance-floor dynamite

Rewind in time to the mid 2000’s when Nickodemus was making many collaborations in San Juan Puerto Rico with the Candela All-stars, Quantic, & many Salsa, Rumba legends. Vocalist & guirro player Sammy Ayala (from the groups Ismail Rivera & Cortijo) was one of those legends & they had a quick easy style of working together. Baila a tú Manera feat Sammy Ayala came out with a Whiskey Barons remix in 2012. Almost 10 years later & we have another remix aimed straight for the dancefloor by the one & only Captain Planet. Let the dancers loose & raise a toast to the late great beautiful Sammy Ayala one more time.

Canopy returns to the scene, presenting 3 remixes of an all-time Nigerian Synth Funk Bomb by The Celebrant.
Featuring OPOLOPO, Aroop Roy & Captain Planet, the single is aimed at the funkiest of dancefloors.
The remixes are built around the afro funk breaks, horn arrangements and cosmic synths of the originals, which the 3 producers have re-calibrated and re-celebrated to devastating effect. Stylistically the vibe sits between searing outer space afro funk and classy afro-disco.

“Mama Tchipp (Follow Me)” is the first single from Nickodemus’ long awaited fifth album “Soul And Science” featuring Cameroonian vocalist Pat Kalla. Grabbing attention instantly, the track goes straight into an uplifting African disco groove with an mega funky bassline from Jonathan Maron, Jungle Fire on Horns and longtime Wonderwheel affiliate and rising star Gitkin on guitar. Inspired by his 2022 summer tour & friends and records he met along the way, “Mama Tchipp” is definitely a hot one to get the dancefloors moving as we finally push into summer.

Mixing traditional Nigerian Fuji music with deep sub bass, "Oluko" gives you the first taste of my upcoming Mystery Trip Vol.II mixtape - dropping July 10th on Bastard Jazz Records. This project is all about going back to my roots: pulling out obscure vinyl from my global collection, then lovingly chopping, remixing and editing them into new tracks with a contemporary edge and classic Captain Planet touch. All 9 edits have been blended, along with other audio samples and field recordings, into a 45min mix, which will be printed to cassette tapes like my earliest mixes from the late 90's. Similar to Mystery Trip Vol.I, which was listed in Sasha Frere-Jones "Best Music Of 2012", Vol.II leads you on a psychedelic journey to destinations around the world, where you are drawn out of your sonic comfort zone via a soundtrack that bridges styles of music from Asia and Africa to South America, The Caribbean and beyond.

Shun's original song "Paper" was so dope I had a hard time imagining how anyone could improve it, but when she told me she had been listening to a lot of vintage Nigerian disco funk, I found my angle in. Check out the beautiful music video for the original here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5P2blM2unc

Had to do a remix of this one. One of my most played songs of the year gets the heavy bass & marimba treatment for the dancefloor. Biggup @OriginalKoffee
