Ibibio Sound Machine are set to release their debut LP through Soundway Records. Fronted by British / Nigerian vocalist Eno Williams, they combine elements of West African highlife, disco, post-punk & psychedelic electro soul. Preceded by the pulsating first single 'Let's Dance', ‘Ibibio Sound Machine’ will be released 17th March.

Folk stories, recounted to Eno by her family as a child in her mother's South-Eastern Nigerian Ibibio language form the creative lyrical fabric of the album. A large dose of electronic elements and an approach as influenced by London as much as by West Africa, give the vocals and guitar lines space to breath without being overwhelmed.

From the banging sub-bass of 'Lets Dance' to the spiritual, gospel-tinged notes of the album's opening track 'Voice of the Bird', the band have turned in a dynamic and, at times, beautiful take on modern afro-soul music.

The 8-piece live band made their official live debut at this year's Transmusicales in France and will be a name to look out for in 2014

Brooklyn-based producer Jitwam takes to The Jazz Diaries, the label he runs with Casey Van Reyk and Nigel Mphisa, to release his latest vibed-out offering in the 'Purple' EP, which features a heavy dose of his distinctly funky, soulful and eclectic sound-profile.

Born in India, raised in Australia and now splitting time between Brooklyn and London, Jitwam's vast musical knowledge and diverse influences shine in his unique productions. When describing the new record, he shares that it's “heavily influenced by the rhythm of New York. The buses, cars, and trains... It feels like a night out in NYC, making your way to the club and ending back at the crib at 5 AM watching the sunrise.”

Here Mixmag premieres the lead cut 'Desire', a bumping and bouncing groove oozing with a smooth arrangement of organic elements, piercing guitar riffs and sensual vocals. 

Jitwam's 'Purple' EP is set to be released July 18.

 ‘Satisfied’ is a slice of sophisticated dance music that nails the sweet spot between headphones and dancefloor. It sees Catching Flies focusing his attention on the dancefloor for the first time with stunning results – ‘Satisfied’ is highly textured, deeply melodic and effortlessly marries live instrumentation (guitars, harps, a string quartet…) with warm electronics. The single consists of a three-track package, including a more immediate Edit and an ‘Ambient Reprise’ which serves as a hazy recollection of the night before. As Catching Flies explains: ‘the tune has so many different layers and tracks (186 to be precise!) and went through various different versions over time… so I wanted to celebrate that.’
