Sunday Jam (James Stewart monthly Radio show for Radio Nova Lyon 89.8fm)

Invitée dans l'édition digitale du joli Radio Meuh Circus Festival de 2021, voici un de vinyles principalement diggés par dela l'océan atlantique en Guyane, en Guadeloupe et à Trinidad, lucky girl i am!!  
On y trouve du  gwo-ka de Guadeloupe, du compas d'Haiti, du Kaseko du Surinam, du zouk, des sons de Guyane, de Trinidad, de La Dominique et même une sortie toute barrée jusque La Reunion (où j'espère aller digger en vrai!)
Désolée niveau technique, la qualité du son, l'équalization etc mais c'est des vieux vinyls et ils ont la magie :) 
J'ouvre avec une de mes chansons préférés de l'univers et au delà: 
Boi dé roz d'Eric Cosaque sorti en 83 en Guadeloupe <3

WITH ALL MY LOVE I hope you will enjoy the ride !

Sunday Jam n°4-Move To Groove (James Stewart for RTU 89.8fm)

Ce La Vie  vol 13

The first time I was introduced to Ethiopian music, I believe that, like many, it was through the "Ethiopiques" compilations of the French musicologist Francis Falceto. My first reaction was: "my god! From what planet does this music come from, it can't be from planet earth!" This sound is so unique, it makes you go from tears to dance... 

This music comes from the planet earth, it comes from Ethiopia. 

Very quickly, I had the desire to go there to see what made this sound so particular. In October 2017, I flew to Addis Ababa to spend three weeks there. I met some key people without whom my stay would not have been the same. Thanks to them, I could feel on the spot a part of the spirit of this music and also find some of these so rare records.

This mix is in memory of this trip, as a tribute to my friends and also to share the emotions that I have on this so unique music.

Sunday Jam N°20 - Chocolate Jesus (James Stewart for RTU 89.8 fm)

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.

Il a aussi sorti le single "Nolias" en 2019 sur le label anglais "On the Corner Records".

Presse :
"Si Atlantic River Drive (en référence au titre du livre de Paul Gilroy, repère incontournable pour les études des diasporas) est un coup de chapeau de James Stewart aux riches échanges culturels entre l’Afrique et ses diasporas, son album est aussi un écrin privilégié pour évoquer sa condition d’homme et de père comme sur le titre Where Are We Going? ( qui sort le 9 octobre). Ses mots chantés en frafra par Ayuune Sule évoquent l'urgence pour tout un chacun(e), de "chérir les communautés humaines dans lesquelles nous évoluons alors même que le futur de nos sociétés demeure largement incertain".  FIP 2020

"Musicien, organisateur de soirée, animateur, dj… James Stewart sillonne le vinyl et les rivages noirs de l’océan atlantique (d’ailleurs il organise à Lyon et Grenoble les soirées Black Atlantic Club) depuis tellement de temps maintenant qu’il est ce qu’on peut appeler un guide de la mer noire...Un voyage qui part de ces terres frafra encore mystérieuses, porté par le souffle rauque de la voix de Ayuune Sule, et le minimalisme vif du kologo, et secondé de près par Stewart qui s’agite derrière le gouvernail dans un élégant ballet d’arrangements lascifs." DJOLO.net

"Sur cet EP, deux titres imaginés avec Ayuune Sule donnent le ton de l’album. D’abord, « Atlantic River Drive », construit pour les dancefloors, qui résume à lui seul les passerelles entre l’Afrique avec ses diasporas. Puis, « Where Are We Going ? », épopée lancinante aux solos de synthés perçants et chaloupés. En face B, deux relectures de Simbad (Brownswood Recordings, Worldwide FM) viennent apporter une autre vision de cette Afrique moderne. Qu’on aime." Le Nouvel Obs

« Une mixtape parfaite qui retrace 30 d’Afro-disco » - Radio Nova

« Concoctée par James Stewart, DJ diplômé en musiques africaines, The Bofou Safou mixtape est un véritable voyage dans le temps revisitant 30 ans d’afro-disco. » - Les Inrocks
