Very few people know that i've spend a credible amount of my early 20s as a wine taster in the most elegant restaurant of Shangai. "The Black Venus" was the name of this fine dining paradise and i must admit that it was there when i fell in love with the most beautiful girl i've seen in my entire life.  I remember thinking she looked like a good illustration, her chin raised a little, jauntily, her hair the color of an autumn leaf, her face the same brown tint as the fingerless glove on her knee. Her name......i don't remember her name but her face, and that's enough i think. This is a mix that i've done for the memory of the most beautiful girl in "The Black Venus" restaurant.

RELEASE INFO
ARTIST: Figura Retorica
TITLE: “Shammanatic EP”
FORMAT: MP3/WAV
LABEL: SHANGO RECORDS
CAT. No: SHNG236
RELEASE DATE: Mid April
GENRE: Downtempo/Organic-House
COVER DESIGN: Freddie Wyatt

Born in the dark streets of Cairo, grown to the unforgettable forests of Santa Esmeralda, spending its teen years in Bombay and Tangier markets, mature into the deep spacey Jungle of Ghana we proudly present you a new label from the land of the pyramids: SHANGO RECORDS invites you to an unheard world music psychedelic trip: like through a colorful kaleidoscope we will melt down Indian and Pakistani Vibes, Arab-Tek and Oriental groovy vibes, Afro-Beat rhythms n' pieces, Cumbia Tropicana flavors and cosmic Ghetto-Latin vibes into forbidden sounds of frenzied electronic dancefloor rituals. Outside traditional paths these driving grooves and polyphonic structures take the adventure seeking dancer to Dionysian highs and places never been before.

When I was born, I remember two voices speaking. “Master!” one voice said. “This is magnificent — the dragon is almost alive!” “Add more water to the inkstone,” another voice said. This voice was near my head, I felt the warm air of his breath. “And speak quietly. You will wake the dragon.” “I am sorry, Master,” the first voice said in a more subdued tone. “It is only that this painting is most amazing, even for such a skilled artist as you. This dragon painting will bring great honor to the village when we present it to the magistrate.” “Wasted on the magistrate,” the master said under his breath, so softly that only I could hear. “A conceited, self-important man, who, when only the imperial family is allowed to use the image of a dragon, commissions one. Now that his son has married the king’s daughter, Magistrate Tiger will do anything to flaunt his power and overstretch his authority. But this painting will buy his favor and free the village from his unfair taxes.”
Figura Retorica bring the tales of Shamanism into the light of this universe. This is their first offering for Shango Records. These tracks are as mellow as a sweet fruit. Adari and Sinai (IT) drink mush flowers and dream of atomic mellows.

I played at my favourite place again this year, the Phoenix Fire Convention.  I almost didn't make it but chance aligned and I played the closing set of the festival. The last thing that was said to me was "please go hard".

Freak Da Bass - Night Destroyer (Quadrat Beat Remix)

Founder of The Pooty Club Records (2009-2014)

I had the pleasure of creating and managing an exceptional record label, collaborating with talented artists from around the globe. Our efforts led to numerous #1 hits on Beatport's Breaks and Glitch Hop charts.

In September 2014, I decided to step away from the label and the music business to focus on advancing my career as an engineer.
