Kasheme Soundsystem Pool Party @ Montreux Jazz Festival 2022

Last April we had a visit of a dear regular from back in the day at the OG Kasheme,
Rebecca Vasmant.

"In an age increasingly dominated by faceless machine-created sounds, DJ-Producer Rebecca Vasmant is bringing a fresh new twist to dance music with her love of jazz, the original form of unbridled spiritual sonic expression. Rebecca is a passionate record collector and her knowledge exceeds her time as a "digger".

While promoting her own parties and record fair in Glasgow, starting her record label Schiehallion and touring the world over the past years, her whirlwind schedule has fitted in sessions with eight-strong Ghanaian outfit Kakatsitsi, as a live fusion show mixing traditional African rhythms with modern dance ingredients; two strains of dancefloor- friendly catharsis joining together in a vibrant new mutant. As well as working on her 'Glasgow Jazz Experiment which features world class musicians from The Scottish National Jazz Orchestra, her talents are not only in spinning records, but in composing and live shows also.

Rebecca has already made a name in Glasgow with her residency at Sub Club, Made In Glasgow and Know The Way parties, running a popular record fair with the venerable Sub Club and a monthly spot on BBC Radio Scotland playing contemporary records in an attempt to bridge the gap between much abused but crucial genres and the electronic scene. She also airs this facet of her irrepressible musical passion at key events like the Glasgow Jazz Festival, Kasheme Zurich, Casper Montenegro and the Baltic Soul Weekender, Waunderlust and Le Melletron Paris, as well as recent high profile gigs curated by Mixmag, like TRNSMT Festival and many others.

Renowned UK clubs which have been treated to Rebecca’s sublime house and techno sets include a two year residency at Edinburgh’s Cabaret Voltaire, the Sub Club and The Arches in Glasgow, Aberdeen’s Snafu, Dundee’s Reading Room, We Love... at Manchester’s Sankey’s, Leeds’ Back To Basics and London niteries including MOS and East Village. She has also played festivals including Rockness, Kelburn, T in The Park and Wickerman, plus Ibiza spots such as Space, Savannah and Zoo Project.

Rebecca’s activities have taken her to play in 22 countries, including premiere spots in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Estonia, India, Africa, Nicaragua, Bosnia, Latvia, Dubai, Austria, Turkey, Serbia, Algeria and Bulgaria.

This year, she has released a remix of Norwegian duo Perfume with Hot Gem recordings, and in September is set to release an EP on Made In Glasgow Recordings which is a collaborative effort with Perseus Traxx. The end of the year will also see a release of her solo EP of disco and jazz tinged house."

Rebecca Vasmant Livingroom Session April 2022

Andy Wilson belongs to that rare breed of Balearic DJs who actually live in the Balearics. One-time teenage post-punker from Manchester, with four John Peel Sessions and numerous tours under his belt by the age of 18, Andy began DJing in 1991, a natural progression after years of making mix-tapes and spending a fortune on vinyl. 
He DJs and broadcasts regularly but you’re more likely to find him behind the decks at exclusive parties or soundtracking the sunsets at outdoor venues on and off Ibiza than in a big club, although he’s played Pacha, Ushuaia and Destino this season. In 2021 Andy left Hostal La Torre after 5 years as resident DJ and this summer is playing at Pikes , Café Del Mar , The Standard, Sa Trinxa and Kumharas  in Ibiza plus international gigs in New York, London, Manchester and Zurich.

Kasheme Listening Session w/ Donna Leake

While Sammy Bacca started out djing in various electronic music genres, he always had a very broad knowledge of music thanks to his parents. He was confronted with numerous kinds of music at an early age, but he was too young to appreciate the depth of it all. But now, with all that knowledge available to him, he is able to tell stories with his mixes and carry the listener into a audiophile journey.

Stolen Moments w/ Soulmate & Gallo @ Livingroom December 2023

Listening Session w/ Luke Una

As a DJ, a part of the Unabombers and as promoter of the legendary Electric Chair nights, Homoelectric, Electric Elephant Festival and Homobloc, Luke Una was not only contributing massively to Manchester’s 80s and 90s club scene but still carries a deep passion to share his music in clubs around the world. He is the curator of seminal compilations such as the Electric Chair and Electric Soul series as well as his latest É Soul Cultura project and label.

This Session was recorded for "Kasheme Conversations", an interview series from, with and for music lovers. This month with Luke Una.
In our conversation, Una shares what caused his relentless pursuit of music, why he would not call himself a record collector and why he is, as he calls it, so evangelical about music.

RUMI (Kasheme)
Zurich based music lover, listener & selector for 25+ years

I am a musical storyteller, dedicated to touching hearts through the power of sound. To create an unforgettable and harmonious experience that resonates with the soul. As the co-owner of “Kasheme”, former director of the "Future is Now Festival” and the driving force behind the “Soul Rebels Collective”, I am deeply driven by the desire to connect with people through the transformative power of music.

My passion finds expression in a eclectic, free-spirited and soulful fusion of musical genres, rooted in Jazz, Afro, Soul, House, Balearic, Ambient and Spiritual music. Whether curating a listening or dance set or guiding the audience on a profound sound journey, my aim remains the same - to be a source of positive and uplifting energy.

For me, music is not just a performance; it's a form of human-to-human interaction that's infused with an abundance of love and passion. I reside at the crossroads of place, people, and sound, seeking to craft musical moments that leave an indelible mark on the heart and spirit.

Live Session w/ Kahil El'Zabar (solo)

The Chicago born jazz multi-instrumentalist and composer Kahil El’Zabar produces healing music for the soul. Born in 1953, the talented percussionist collaborated with musical legends such as Dizzy Gillespie, Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Paul Simon, Pharoah Sanders, and many others. El’Zabar continues to mesmerize audiences worldwide with his meditative yet invigorating sound, aiming to promote wellness and spiritual empowerment through his music. With his main musical groups the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble and the Ritual Trio, he released more than 30 albums. 

This live solo performance was recorded back in November 23 for "Kasheme Conversations", an interview series from, with and for music lovers. Kahil shares about his latest album A Time for Healing and how he, as a young jazz musician got connected with the DJ culture back in the 80ies.
“Beneath the party is the ethos of interaction. … And the DJ is the curator of what all of those cosmologies, what all of those energies are.”

Listening Session w/ Millie McKee

Starting off as a bedroom collector for almost a decade, Millie McKee is an up-and-coming digger and music selector who is impressing global crowds with her knowledge and understanding of many genres. Known from her show on Noods Radio or her mix for My Analog Journal, she now plays not only at the legendary Love Inn in Bristol, but is also holding down regular shows at London & Bristol’s most progressive underground venues. We love Millie’s enchanting presence and her philosophy towards DJing which “resides in a deep, quasi-spiritual soulfulness…” 

In our conversation, Millie shares about how she first went into record stores not for the music but the album artwork and how this led her to buy her first ever record which she carries with her to every gig to this day.

Kasheme's Local Digger Session w/ Kalabrese #2

We’re bringing the music back in the venue. We miss vibing and grooving together. The circumstances are different but the mindset remains the same. During these times we can only dance in our imagination and we want to nourish exactly that creative state of mind while respecting the rules.

Ninth Black and White Session with DJ Soulsonic a/k/a Herr Wempe.
Mr. Wempe likes music with soul. He has been DJing with records for many years and has been hosting the monthly party series "Soul Gallen" at the Palace (St. Gallen) since 2010. The musical spectrum includes Motown classics, Northern Soul rarities, deep funk, rhythm'n'blues, dancefloor jazz, boogaloo, afro-beat, rocksteady etc. It doesn't matter if it's from the 60's or today, as long as you can dance to it. As DJ Soulsonic he co-founded the internationally successful event series "Rap History", furthermore he is co-owner of the record store "OOR Records" in Zurich.

Tenth Black and White Session with Ajele.
As daughter of a Swiss mother and a Ghanaian father, Ajele was born and raised in Switzerland, where, at the age of eighteen, she got introduced to the electronic music scene and realized there were hardly any female DJs. Now that was something she strived to change! The Decision was made and the first records, mixer and decks where bought. Vinyl shopping became an addiction and playing them a passion. Since 1996 she’s an inherent part of Zurich’s electronic music scene.
In the past 10 years she took a step back from traveling abroad but she still has her regular gigs within the Swiss clubs and festivals. She is also a regular in our livingroom, where she developed her smooth side. Playing her eclectic interpretation of a chillout set.

Live recorded at Kasheme | 19.12.20

BITTERSWEET PARADOX
A musical reflection of challenging times full of contradictions. Ups and downs, bliss and pain, determination and despair, fire and fatigue, blessings and losses. Mystical waves flow into sweet dreams, sultry exotica fades to cries for the motherland, flirtation ends in heartbreak and global disunity evolves into hope for better days.

Thanks for loving, caring and sharing.
