new music

Among the processes of building spaces of refuge and consciousness, ORÍ was born, establishing the debut of KONTRONATURA through MAMBAREC as his first EP released. Orí is our head Orixá, our essence. It is what connects us with our individuality, with our unconscious in a powerful and absolute way. To know Orí is also to understand possibilities of existing beyond place or context, this displacement materializes in IKU (DEATH) and BIYI (BORN HERE), ending with BIYI's RHR Dub Remix sealing the release.
The album delivers rhythms marked by accelerations and restlessness mixed with guetto sounds. ORI EP is the demarcation of a transitional territoriality, a personal Quilombo manifested in frequency.

SIRIUS é a faixa que dá inicio ao projeto "NOMMO" que consolida a parceria de @evehive e @kontronatura que vem se desenvolvido desde 2021. A dupla traz uma mistura Afrofuturista de Club Music, Techno Percussivo entre outros ritmos que se unem a sonoridade brasileira incluindo funk BR e o samba.

"NOMMO is the new project that solidifies the partnership between Evehive and Kontronatura, a collaboration that has been evolving since 2021. The duo brings an Afrofuturistic blend of Club Music, Percussive Techno, and various rhythms, merging with the Brazilian sound including Funk and Samba. In the Dogon Cosmogony, Nommo represents an androgynous twin entity from the Sirius star, believed to have imparted astronomical knowledge to the Dogon people. As trans individuals on a journey of self-discovery, they draw inspiration from this ever-transforming dual energy."

@djobeka & @kontronatura

Creating moody and captivating ambience with an intricately woven net of frenetic drums is what Obeka does best and the monumental title track from his EP 'Temple Drum' on LOVE IN THE ENDZ is not only yet another example of his great skills but also a testament to how his Afro-Caribbean identity and childhood spent in Bermuda are now artistically expressed within the realm of electronic music. All these influences create a perfect blend that takes centre stage on the upcoming release that is further enriched by remixes courtesy of Kontronatura, BBY FANGZZZ and DJ Doraemon.

Obeka - Bongo Fevah (Kontronatura Remix)

This new EP was born during a trip to Brazil, where Entrañas (Dani) stayed with Kontronatura (Achille) and his cats. That warmth and hospitality inspired a project that, despite its dark tones and deep bass, carries a sense of affection — a nod to the friendliness of Brazilians, especially Achille.

Brazil’s vibrant identity and rich Latin electronic scene stood in stark contrast to Ecuador, where such a movement doesn’t exist. For Entrañas, embracing Ecuadorian roots is an act of resistance against cultural erasure from the US. Musically, the EP blends baile funk, techno, and bass, with “Eris” adding Ecuadorian bomba and tribal rhythms — a delight for fans of 6/8 and triplets.

Both artists are no strangers to the label’s catalog: Entrañas previously appeared on the Amor Na Endz 3 compilation and on Nadī & Otus’s Less Talk/ More Talk remix EP, while Kontronatura featured with a remix on Obeka’s Temple Drum EP.

This release is not only a celebration for the artists but also for the label, once again born from long-distance support and mutual appreciation.

The creators of the smashing track ‘King Kong’ released earlier this year are back with another killer song! This time Boa Kusasa come up with an instrumental beauty ‘Bheka’ that showcases their love towards percussive rhythms (in this case coming specifically from West Africa) but also contains the sound of Turkish ney flute that add another dimension to the track.

The track is released on 'Diatribes' compilation curated by University of Tropical Sound. Vinyl pre-order starts now!
