Digital Afrika - Gnawa (Jose Marquez Mexican in Morocco Remix)

Boddhi Satva Ft. Oumou Sangare - Ngnari Konon (Louie Vega Roots Remix)

"Toura Toura" they cried, from the mountain on high to the travellers down below. The walk had been long and their sandals had taken a battering from the dried up desert sands on which they had tread. The rocky cliff face cast it's shadows across the red sands below as it rose from the ground like some sort of twisted stone skyscraper amidst the nothingness. Those at the top unfurled a large red flag to those below, it blotted a blackened shape against the pale blue sky as it soared. 

Formed in New York City, it is through accidental circumstances that the members of Innov Gnawa, originally from Morocco, found themselves as a musical group. Innov Gnawa are the only NewYork-based Gnawa band who play regularly and still remain true to the traditions of the ancient ritual. Here they receive the remix treatment from 1-800 Dinosaur affiliate Mr Assister on a forthcoming release for Pique Nique Records.

On April 14th, 2015 Boddhi Satva went to Casablanca (Morocco) to work on a very particular and uniq project called Boddhi Satva meets Gnawa. 

This EP consists of four live recordings composed and recorded in Casablanca on April 21st, 2015. Each song represents a colour/spirit that will heal and elevate the souls through sounds and rhythms. The order of the song is highly meaningful and one couldn't come before the other as they have colours and spirits that are to come upon the listener and bring blessing in a very specific order. 

The main spirit/colour of Bania, Hamouda, Sandia & Zid Lmel is RED. Belma Belma is the combination of all the colours known and used for healing rituals. In Moroccan popular culture, Gnawas, are considered to be experts in the magical treatment of scorpion stings and psychic disorders through ceremonies. They heal diseases by the use of colours. They are originated in West Africa, more particularly, The Ancient Ghana Empire.

And finally we find Adam Port on B2, pursuing his knack for lost African treasures. Once again he finds the source material in an old traditional by Quim Manuel O Espirito Santo. Port's edit of "Eme Lelu" seeks to update the original in some of the rhythmic patterns and create a whole new dramaturgic, floor tweaked build up, yet he leaves the original's cheer- and playful nature untouched. Cheers to Analog Africa for providing the original composition.

DIGITAL AFRIKA is pushing the frontiers of dance floor orientated Afro House. Their 2018 debut vinyl EP ‘Dark Matter’ is the productive powers of Future Roots and Si Fixion. Incorporating live instrumentation, MPC sequencers, African percussion and Digital/Analog production, Digital Afrika has met with critical acclaim from international taste makers; Nickodemus, Giles Peterson and Carl Cox. 

The EP kicks off with "Babalú Ayé" which is a heavy house groove & jazzy synths with traditional Yoruban vocals in honor of Babalú-ayé (the Father of the Earth) who deals with infectious disease and healing. Inspired by Miriam Makeba's song "Ungakanani," "Mozambique" starts with South African vocalist Thando & gets the full percussive house treatment. Next up is "Dark Matter" which switches up the beats to a more UK broken beat & bass style, keeping it deep. Rounding off the EP, "Brazilian Blend" is reminiscent of the good old acid jazz days with a bossa beat, muted trumpet & lush keys.

Before lockdown put a temporary end to parties, Village Cuts were behind one of the fastest growing parties in London. Focused on dance music from further afield, the Village Cuts duo easily blend Rhumba, Cumbia, Highlife, Afrobeat and beyond with the unmistakable sounds of the UK underground. And a fast-developing catalogue of exceptional remixes is now supporting that. 

Taking the massively popular Penya collaboration, Tanto Tiempo, from Scrimshire's 5th album and giving it an altogether more bass and beat heavy workover, the Village Cuts remix even delivers all new brass section and cut up vocals for a perfect party heater. Heavy music, ready for whatever the summer brings.

In 2020 Albert’s Favourites co-founder Adam Scrimshire released his fifth album 'Believers Vol. 1’, featuring guests And Is Phi, Bessi, K.O.G., Omar, Xana & Faye Houston, Penya, Stac and Tamar Osborn. The album draws from Scrimshire's passion for jazz, soul and electronic music of all styles; from energetic Afro-disco through lushly orchestrated neo-soul to harmonious jazz experiments.

Los Angeles DJ/Producer Jose Marquez’s sound is a result of being brought up around Afro-Latin, Caribbean and other World Music at a young age. Always intrigued by electronic sounds as well, Jose's mission has been to fuse his love of global rhythms with the dance floor. Jose indeed succeeded when he burst onto the scene in 2010 with memorable remixes & edits of artists such as Celia Cruz, Nina Simone, Oumou Sangare and many others.

In less than two years time, Jose was blessed with the opportunity to introduce his sound to the world by remixing for renowned Housemusic labels such as Tribe Records, Djoon Experience, Vega Records, Yoruba Records, Wonderwheel Recording and most recently, the iconic label from the 70’s responsible for all the Salsa and Latin music out of New York City, Fania Records!

Since then, he continues to travel the globe uniting nations on the dance floor with his signature sound having performed at major events in cities such as Paris, Athens, Toronto, Los Angeles, NYC, Melbourne, Nairobi, Morocco, Singapore, Shanghai, Peru and Cuba
