• Trad Vibe records started in Paris in 2005 when two friends and open minded musicians decided to set up a label that would mainly focus on vinyl releases. In times when Serato and other midi controllers dominated the dj booths and when vinyl record sales were experiencing a major downturn, this endevour did not look like an easy bet . "Moar's Remixes", the label's first release allowed Trad Vibe to set foot in the business and to meet people like Grandmaster Dee Nasty, Cortex (Alain Mion), Raashan Ahmad, The Audible Doctor (NYC) amongst many others which resulted in fruitful collaborations.

Ten years and over thirty vinyl releases later we are poud to present you with this compilation that includes unreleased tracks and remixes by Dj Cam, 20syl (C2C/Hocus Pocus), Venice Beach, Lord Funk, Blanka (La fine Equipe / Juke Box Champions) as well as brand new tracks by artists we like among which LS Brigandes (NYC) feat Insight, Moar & Elodie Rama, Dj Suspect & Doc TMK, King Most (San Francisco) and Madjir.

Evolution is our main target and we hope that you will enjoy our new projects as much as we do.

Trad Vibe, c’est l’histoire de deux amis musiciens et passionnés aux oreilles ouvertes. Leurs retrouvailles se font à Paris en 2005 et ils décident de monter un label essentiellement axé sur des sorties vinyle et ceci en pleine période de chute de ventes des disques et avec l'arrivée de Serato et autres contrôleurs midi dans les cabines des djs : autant dire que ce n'était pas gagné d'avance.
La première sortie "Moar’s Remixes" permettra au label de faire les premières rencontres qui s'avéreront fructueuses, dont le Grandmaster Dee Nasty, Cortex (Alain Mion), Raashan Ahmad,  The Audible Doctor (NYC) et bien d'autres .
Dix ans et une trentaine de sorties vinyles plus tard  nous sommes fiers de vous présenter une compilation regroupant titres inédits et remixes assurés par notre entourage : Dj Cam, 20syl (C2C/Hocus Pocus), Venice Beach, Lord Funk, Blanka (La fine Equipe / Juke Box Champions) ainsi que les titres inédits d'artistes que nous aimons beaucoup dont : LS Brigandes (NYC) feat Insight, Moar & Elodie Rama, Dj Suspect & Doc TMK, King Most (San Francisco) et  Madjir. 
L’évolution est notre but et nous espérons que nos nouveaux projets vous procureront autant de plaisir et de bonnes vibrations qu'à nous.




Elodie Rama & Moar - The End Of Something (The French Evolution LP)

Most fans of the blues believe it was born in the Mississippi delta shortly before 1900. They are definitevely wrong.The blues had its roots in other forms of older black music that are traced to the music of West Africa. In that sense, Mali music constituting the DNA of the blues and the griots can be identified as the direct ancestors of the rural bluesmen.Baba Sissoko is from Mali and he is the last undisputed griot alive.His voice evokes the lost vibe of the deepest and wildest side of west Africa. A magic land that he largely crossed since his childhood in singing and playing with his legendary grandfather Djeli Baba Sissoko. 

With the help of the soulful voices of Djeli Mah  Damba Koroba  and Djana Sissoko, respectively his 78 y.o. mother and his young daughter he recorded  “Three Gees”.

They are the voices of the past, the present and the future living in the twilight zone where the malian roots blooms into a new sound of hope and happiness.

Involved are also Fernando "Bugaloo" Velez on percussions and the grammy winner Corey Harris on slide guitar.

Somebody called it as Bambara Mystic Soul, we dig it and really hope you enjoy listening this album as much as we have enjoyed making it.

The daughter of a musically gifted minister, Hannah Williams AKA Deep Soul's Funkiest New Diva was immersed in soulful music from the day she was born. Her first single, an independently released 45, reached out into the soul scene and drew praise from Daptone Records artists, Craig Charles on his BBC radio show and various labels and promoters. Hannah and the band were signed by the Italian Record Kicks label just weeks after the release of the vinyl single. Whilst recording the anticipated debut LP, due to finally drop in 15th October 2012, the outfit crept onto a couple of festival bills, headlining a stage at Larmer Tree and flying to Italy to play the penultimate set on the main stage at Jazz Re:Found. The London-based band are setting off on a UK tour in May to promote their single ahead of the festival season, where they are sure to be the biggest surprise act on any European stage.
