"Matasuna Records" proudly presents the exclusive re-release of "Moto Moto" and "Zebra Talk" by "Renegades Of Jazz" for the first time on a 45. Both tracks were originally released in 2016 on David Hanke's critically acclaimed "Moyo Wangu" album.

After its release, Moyo Wangu quickly became a very sought-after album on vinyl for collectors and DJs. On this third Renegades Of Jazz album, Hanke combines elements of Afrofunk with his love for breakbeats with club appeal.

Having spent his early childhood in Arusha/Tanzania in the early 1980s, producing an Afrofunk album was on Hanke's list for a long time to reconnect with his time living there. With his love for African rhythms and club music, Hanke produced with Moyo Wangu a blend containing the best of both worlds.

Later, he continued his Afrofunk journey under his "Dem Juju Poets" alias and released his album "Liberated Thoughts" here on Matasuna Records in 2017, which also quickly sold out.

"Moto Moto" is featured on the a-side of our new 45, an infectious opener which captures the hot, vital feeling of a crowded dance floor throughout an amazing night out. Catchy drums and frenzied percussions meet funk guitars, a deep grooving bassline, great horns and vibrant vocals.

"Zebra Talk" on the b-side is an exciting collaboration with producer and multi-instrumentalist Ingo Moell aka "Kabanjak", also known for his projects like Deela and as one-half of Ancient Astronauts. Together they create a mesmerizing tapestry of sound that slowly builds, immersing the listener in the groove and captivating them.

Hanke and Moell continued working together on their new project The Maenads, exploring the depths of electronic club music.

Transmission Towers are operational, broadcasts have been received across the globe. Transmission One is inbound and ‘Sparse’ is the second oscillation from Mark Kyriacou and Eleanor Mante’s highly anticipated debut album, on Luke Una’s E Soul Cultura label. A stripped back, slo-mo cut of heads down, Detroit-flavoured deep house merged with futuristic machine soul.

The foundations for ‘Sparse’, laid with a pulsating kick and echoing rimshot, are simple, raw and immediately effective. Claps and clicks interject like strikes of light through the darkness. Channelling sonic architects such as Theo Parrish and Ron Trent, sounds with signatures bring an emotional presence. Pensive chords and deft piano keys sweep you up, with that subwoofer shaking bassline, rattling across the cosmos. Anchoring the track, Eleanor’s vocals entice from the depths with a soulfulness that is threaded through all of what Transmissions Towers do. 

Late-night reflections, cross-temporal reverberations, ‘Sparse’ is a timeless slice of emotive brilliance.

The Litmus Test

Ensemble Entendu (Photay and Sam O.B.) return with futurist library music for the dance floor and, in this case, yacht sound system. Azalea Chuva is the second single (after last year’s Time Is Certainly Passing) to be culled from the first of two EPs from the Brooklyn-based powerhouse due this year on Astro Nautico. A soft ‘80s synth palette interlocks with 3 over 4 percussion ostinatos in slowly building wonderment. Melodies played by two-octave synth leads sound like they’re made of plucked and whistle tones. By the time the triplets of kosmische-style drums roll through you’re already delightfully caught up in a mesmeric, summery haze. Grab some shade and a cool drink. Settle right in.

Ensemble Entendu - Azalea Chuva

    M.E.L.L.Y. (mind, elevated, living, loving, yearning) Jazzy enough to attract fans of jazz and fusion, yet consistently melodic enough to satisfy lovers of Neo-Soul. He can’t be pinned down. Ever since people began to organize sound into patterns of pitch and rhythm, music has always been a source of energy and inspiration. A healing force. Soulful melodies soar above hip-hop and jazzed influenced rhythms. 
Zamzam has become known all around with the “MellyOmatic sound. This Cosmic dance here on the stage we call earth. The Sun Moon and stars are the lights for this glorious stage. No beginning, no end. The never ending story where the drama of divine Beings is being manifest. Day and Night, Light and Dark. Soul conscious and Body conscious I Am and I am not Peace and War, Love and Hate, joy and sorrow. A divine actor is what I AM...... Divine Light, Conscious divine Light. And via the senses We, Spirit Children of the Supreme Spirit, divine actors; dance the dance of Life. I, You...and I, the energy called Life, brings the Body to life....and dances the dance we call life. Life is dancing the dance entitled life here on stage earth... "Vision without implementation is hallucination; implementation without Vision is slavery".

"...and all audible musical sound is given us for the sake of harmony, which has motions akin to the orbits in our soul, and which, as anyone who makes intelligent use of the arts knows, 
is not to be used, as is commonly thought, to give irrational pleasure, but as a heaven-sent ally in reducing to order and harmony any disharmony in the revolutions within us." Plato
