Remix by @IZem

It´s been a bit more than four months since Daniel Haaksman´s "African Fabrics" album has been released and it has become a success story. "African Fabrics" was nominated for a German Music Critic prize, was praised on diverse leading media outlets such as SPIN, NPR, XLR8R, Der Spiegel, NZZ, Songlines Magazine and Goethe Institute Podcast amongst others and has been played by countless club and radio DJs around the world. 

The accompanying single releases "Sabado", "Rename The Streets" and "Akabongi" received remix treatments, now the other tracks of the albums have been reworked and the result is "African Fabrics Remixes", which presents a trans world cast of amazing remixers. 

First off, is South African Mo Laudi with an Afro house rendering of "Akabongi". It´s followed by three remixes featuring the hot new Lisbon sound 2Pekes, a member of the infamous DZC Deejays crew remixed "Sembène" in Euro kuduro fashion, whereas Izem put "Kaggua" ft. Tshila on a broken beat turf. Man of the moment Dotorado, also hailing from Lisbon, is featured with his version of "Rename The Streets". UK´s freestyle bass dons LV revisit "Sabado" with a London carnival mood. Then there´s São Paulo´s hot new beat talent Bad $ista who samba-funked up "Black Coffee" ft. Dama Do Bling. Another Lisbon remix contribution is by legendary Portuguese kuduro don DJ NK remaking "Xinguila" ft. Throes + The Shine in a raved up kuduro smasher. Swedish bass maestro Dance, Kill, Move tamed the original footwork monster "Aho" to a tarraxo influenced half timer. Probably the heaviest remix on "African Fabrics Remixes" is by São Paulo´s ambassador of low end schlepp beats, Cybass, who put "Afrika" ft. Tony Amado ft. Alcinda Gueraneh into madness territories. Durban´s Gqom kingpins Rudeboyz added a weighty groove to the Mbira infused "Raindrops" track, turning it into a club ready track. And finally, New Zealands Afro popster Weird Together remade "Querido" ft. Bulldozer with a UK funky inspired mood. 

And there you have it, "African Fabrics Remixes", featuring eleven diverse and club-friendly remixes that will put "African Fabrics" in further and more varied contexts. Play it out!

Kaggua ft. Tshila + Ku Bo (iZem Remix)

The bus bounced as it rolled along the dusty road. The passengers looked out onto the lush green plains on the other side of the glass. Wildlife flourished for as fas as the eye could see. Tall giraffes marched proudly, their heads poking between the branches of leafy trees. Birds flew through the royal blue sky casting dim shadows back down to earth. It was a scene of majestic beauty and wonder. This was excursion Africanism and they were on tour.

Jose Manuel is set to release a new LP on Music For Dreams. Titled 'Excursion Africanism' the release spans across eleven tracks and soars through an array of spectacular percussion, melodic spirals and beyond.

PREMIERE: José Manuel - Excursion Africanism Pt.3 [Music For Dreams]

From Cosmic Cabo Verde to synth-reggae at the Horn of Africa.

(Special Mix for Vinyl Factory)
Frankfurt-based label Analog Africa is easily one of the most noteworthy labels rescuing and reissuing Afro sounds.

In 2015, the label gave us an exceptional anthology of Afro-Cuban pioneer Amara Touré, not to mention a compilation of tracks plucked straight from the dance floors of ’70s Senegal. Last year, they blew our human minds with some of the most extraterrestrial synth music we’ve ever heard on Space Echo.

This year, the label turns ten. To celebrate label boss Samy Ben Redjeb and his DJ partner Pedo Knopp have recorded a special mix which we’re delighted to share here.

“What is special about this mix is the fact that all the songs, except one, will be released on Analog Africa in 2017,” says Samy. “They have all been handpicked by myself and mixed in real time, without loops or any other kind of gimmicks by Pedo.”

It’s a synth-ridden journey from reggae in the Horn of African to Cosmic sounds of Cabo Verde, wavey soca-boogie monsters and other proto-electronic Afro jams.
