Miel de Montagne revient avec un nouveau single à son image : totalement décomplexé et exaltant. Après une tournée effrénée aux quatres coins de la France et 84 dates de concert depuis 2021, le chanteur ne décélère pas et dévoile un nouveau morceau qui deviendra un incontournable des soirées d’été. Comme son nom l’indique, ‘ Le Summerlove’ parle d’amour, entre frustrations et désillusions. Sur une ligne de basse groovy et des notes de synthés ravageuses, Milan se livre avec un flow mêlant hip-hop et toplines envoûtantes. Aucun doute sur le fait que le refrain de ce titre indie club retournera les salles de concerts, chanté en chœur par un public qui s’ambiance sur l’instrumentale et s’identifie dans les paroles.

Introduisant l'arrivée du LP "Juguya" de Baba Commandant, sur le label Sublime Frequencies, Mawimbi est fier de présenter "Wasso", l'un des titres les plus frappants de l'album, dans une toute nouvelle version accompagnée de remixes dans l'esprit du label, signés Loya ou encore M. Boom.

Caractère excentrique et mystérieux de la scène underground de Ouagadougou, Baba Commandant a débuté comme danseur Bobo traditionnel avant de s'engager dans une riche carrière musicale et de rejoindre le célèbre burkinabé Victor Démé en tant que musicien de sa tournée. Influencé par Fela Kuti, King Sunny Adé et Moussa Doumbia, Baba Commandant joue au dozo n'goni, un instrument associé aux chasseurs traditionnels Donso, reliant les écarts entre les différentes générations et les strates de la société burkinabé.

Accompagné du Mandingo Band, Baba Commandant nous délivre un mélange d'afrobeat style Fela, de mandinka blues et de funk hard-hitting. Enregistré au Ouaga Jungle Studios, "Wasso" est un excellent exemple des sons bruts, qui fondent le Mandinka blues, le dub et l'afrobeat nigérian, le tout avec une touche de punk.

La face A se dote également d'un remix signé Loya du label Mawimbi, dont la réinterprétation provoque un rythme plus dense accompagné de subtiles couches de sons organiques.

La face B du disque quant à elle est composée de deux remixes friendly DJ, avec des samples impressionnants du producteur toulousain M. Boom. Dépouillant la piste originale jusqu'à en sortir ses éléments les plus animés. Les deux versions feront des armes parfaites pour les DJs world comme les DJs de house music.

Following the release of Baba Commandant's debut album "Juguya" on the mighty Sublime Frequencies label, Mawimbi is proud to present "Wasso", one of the most striking cut from the album, in brand new mixing shape alongsides killer electronic remixes from the likes of Mawimbi signee Loya and rising producer Mr. Boom. 

A rather eccentric and mysterious character from the Ouagadougou underground scene, Baba Commandant started out as a traditional Bobo dancer, before engaging in a rich musical career and joining Burkinabé star Victor Démé as one of his touring musicians. Influenced by the likes of Fela Kuti, King Sunny Adé and Moussa Doumbia, Baba Commandant plays dozo n'goni, an instrument associated with traditional Donso hunters, bridging the gaps between different generations and strata of Burkinabé society. 

Accompanied by his Mandingo Band, Baba Commandant play a mixture of Fela-style afrobeat, mandinka blues and hard-hitting funk. Recorded at the notorious Ouaga Jungle Studios, "Wasso" is a prime example of the band's unpolished and raw sounds, melting Mandinka blues, dub and Nigerian afrobeat with a punk attitude. 

The A-side also features a remix by Mawimbi signee Loya, whose leftfield reinterpretation moves at a much higher pace with epic modular motifs and subtle organic layers of sounds.

The B-side of the record is made of two DJ-friendly remixes with impressive mixing work from Toulouse-based producer Mr. Boom. Stripping the original track down to its most lively elements, both mixes are perfect club-ready weapons for tropical-minded and house DJs.

Baba Commandant & The Mandingo Band - Wasso (Original) (Official Audio) | LeMellotron.com Premiere

Hailing from the bustling crossroads of Agadez, Niger, Etran de L’Aïr is one of the longest running desert blues outfits to electrify the arid landscape. Launched in 1995, they have been one of the region’s most popular hires for marriage celebrations. Forget western stereoypes of schlocky wedding bands. This circuit is the lifeblood of Sahelian musicians and a space where sound directly channels celebratory energy. This responsive nimbleness resounds throughout Etran de L’Aïr’s debut record, No. 1. Coming May 1st on Sahel Sounds, the album was recorded under the wide sky outside Etran de L’Aïr’s Agadez compound and you can hear joyfully ululating neighbors calling back to the supercharged musicians. Frosty premiered “Tamiditine” on Open End, his weekly Red Bull Radio voyage around the globe.

Jaki Whitren & John Cartwright - 'Stay Cool'

Over the past eight years, Ikebe Shakedown has cemented a reputation as one of New York City’s boldest, most creative instrumental bands. Combining cinematic soul, Afro–funk, deep disco, and an irrepressible groove, Ikebe Shakedown has forged a style all its own. Each song is anchored in the deep-pocketed pulse of its four-man rhythm section (Barnaby Alter, drums; Dave Bourla, percussion; Vince Chiarito, bass; Robin Schmidt, guitar) and driven by one of the tightest horn trios on the East Coast (Mike Buckley, tenor/baritone sax; Jason Colby, trumpet; Nadav Nirenberg, trombone), with tunes ranging from dance-floor burners to lush, captivating scores.

The band first came on the scene with 2009’s debut EP, Hard Steppin’, from Colemine Records. Praised by WNYC’s Soundcheck as “the perfect soundtrack for the unwritten Tarantino movie of your imagination,” the five–song release led to tours up and down both U.S. coasts and paved the way for Ikebe Shakedown’s first full-length LP on Ubiquity Records. Recorded at Killion Sound in L.A. with Orgone’s Sergio Rios and Dunham Studios in Brooklyn with noted producer Tom Brenneck, this self-titled album, released in 2011, featured 14 blistering tracks that Okayplayer called, “an adventurous trip through time” and “one of the best releases of the year.” Having toured the record throughout the U.S. and Canada, Ikebe Shakedown returned to the studio in 2014 for their follow up album for Ubiquity, Stone by Stone. Recorded at Daptone Studios, the 10-song set let the band become more adventurous than ever before, weaving psychedelic textures and raw soul into powerful compositions, or as Wax Poetics called it, “a greasy and sometimes trippy funk world.”

Now, after hitting major jazz festivals, opening on extended runs for stars like Lee Fields, and with the band’s members simultaneously touring with acts like Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, Charles Bradley and His Extraordinaires, and the Monophonics, Ikebe Shakedown is poised for their next big release in 2017. The new album, The Way Home, is due out October 20th on Colemine Records. It shows how the band’s style has continued to evolve, with material that transports listeners beyond their living rooms into dance parties and spaces for introspection. Building on the success that has led to musical features in series such as Eastbound and Down, movies like Our Brand is Crisis, and commercials for brands including Mini Cooper, Vans’ Off the Wall, and Surfline, the songs are at once richly familiar and incredibly fresh, paying homage to classic influences while pushing a brand new sound. Defying genre or classification, this album proves Ikebe Shakedown is helping define the next bold and soulful wave in instrumental music.
