Our friend XOGN hits us again with a powerful selection of 45s from both Congos.

Originally broadcasted in XOGN's show "Bal Poussière" on Radio Bruzz, our favorite Belgian selector was kind enough to share this bomb mix with The Asymetrics, play it loud !

Experimental hip-hop/jazz quartet Bokoya team up with Cologne-based producer / guitarist Gianni Brezzo (Jakarta Records) for ‘Velvet Stream’, the fourth single from their upcoming project on Melting Pot Music.

Bokoya describe themselves as a four-headed human drum machine that play impro-vised beat music. You can call it jazz if you like (all four members are graduated jazz musicians btw) but be ready to stumble over some Dilla, Kraut Rock, Ambient or Dub in the mix. We recommend their double-album ‘Hausensession’ (MPM 2022) as a reference point.

Gianni Brezzo's music is a bit easier to access but not less leftfield. Jazz is a major influ-ence, but it goes way further. On his album ‘Tutto Grosso’ (Jakarta, 2022), Brezzo rides a sonic wave similar to Matthew Halsall, Surprise Chef, El Michels Affair and BadBadNot-Good. 

The recording sessions took place at the Gottesweg Studios in Cologne where Bokoya and Gianni Brezzo jammed for three days and nights based on some basic sketches and beat. The sessions were edited and arranged after by Bokoya and Brezzo but no overdubs added.

                4th Sign - Eloge de la Lenteur Part Two
For their next release, the Parisian label Ondulé Recordings hits hard with a new project : 4th Sign. A 2 parts LP to introduce their genuine world…
The story of 4th Sign. Two long time friends & producers Joss Moog & Around7, with common background & influences, and the same love of original samples & genuine loops. This project seemed to be obvious.

Then as the title (Eloge de la lenteur) suggests; take your time, enjoy and let the music play!!
If you think that groove & pleasure is not a BPM matter and you can say a lot in just 4 bars, 
we're sure you'll appreciate the trip...
This is also just the first step of the journey. You'll be hearing from 4th Sign again very soon...


4th Sign - Hot Saucisse
