“NYC-2-Africa-2-Brasil” features two of the world’s top reggae vocalists, Anthony B and Jahdan Blakkamoore, and builds on the NYC-2-Africa project from Subatomic Sound System & Nomadic Wax, an effort to musically connect the roots of NYC hip hop back through Jamaican reggae and then back to Africa. Here it takes another musical journey on an express train to Brasil where three Brasilian based top ranking producers reimagine the tracks from their unique perspective. NYC-2-Africa riddim was written and recorded in New York City, USA; Dakar, Senegal; and Kingston, Jamaica; tracing the roots of African rhythm through Jamaican dubwise dancehall reggae and NYC hip hop.  Vocals by Anthony B and Jahdan Blakkamoore. Music written and produced by Emch and Benny Beats. Brazilian based producers Victor Rice, Maga Bo, and Buguinha Dub continue the musical diaspora with these dubs and mixes. Mastered by Emch at the Subatomic Sound Lab, NYC.  Original songs released on the NYC-2-Africa riddim EP and remixed for the Anthony B "Dem Can't Stop We From Talk" remix release.

THE ARTISTS:  Anthony B (Jamaica) & Jahdan Blakkamoore (Brooklyn/Guyana) are two of the world’s most exciting conscious dancehall & roots reggae vocalists. Spearhead by producer, DJ, and instrumentalist Emch, NYC’s Subatomic Sound System is leading a dub music renaissance, founders of the US & Europe Dub Champions Festival, 5 years acting as the live band for legend Lee “Scratch” Perry on tours including Coachella & Red Bull Music Academy; plus independently touring North America, Europe, and Asia, and for a decade producing flavors ranging from classic dub to dancehall to dubstep.  Nomadic Wax is a Brooklyn based hip hop label led by drummer/producer Benny Beats, originally planned to focus on African music but later expanded to produce documentary films like “Democracy in Dakar” linking politics and music, as well as producing events like the International Hip Hop festival in New Haven, Connecticut.  Victor Rice operates from Total Running Time studios in Sao Paulo while Maga Bo & Buguinha are located in Rio De Janeiro, Brasil.

THE SUBATOMIC SOUND LABEL: Subatomic Sound specializes in releases that push the envelope of dub, reggae, & dancehall in the context of electronic bass music through forward sounding productions and unlikely collaborations with icons such as Lee “Scratch” Perry, David Lynch, Anthony B, Elephant Man, Ari Up of The Slits, as well as new school torchbearers like Dubblestandart, Jahdan Blakkamoore, Dub Gabriel, and many more.  Subatomic Sound actively produces events and founded the annual Dub Champions Festival running 5 years in the USA and Europe. Subatomic Sound Radio airs on Brooklyn Radio and for three years ran on KEXP’s Radio New York, 91.5FM broadcast which transmitted to a footprint of 11 million listeners.

Champion (Maga Bo Remix) - Buju Banton

After the release of Amansara, the third LP from Argentinian neo-folklore producer and one of the leaders of the new Latin electronic sound, Chancha Via Circuito returns with Amansara Remixed, featuring brand new and inventive re-imaginings of the tracks from the albums with artists hand selected by Chancha from Latin America and beyond. Artists include Frikstailers, Thornato, Tremor, Maga Bo, King Coya, Psilosamples, El Búho, El Remolón Nicola Cruz, Rafael Aragon, Blocktreat, Prisma, Reptilian Commander, Barrio Lindo, Sidirum and Chancha himself, under his previous alias "Universildo". The result of this selection is a powerful and experimental album where the unique sounds of Chancha dare to travel to new latitudes, catalyzed by the wide ranging vision of the remixers. 

The album also features the special participation of Acampante, an Argentiniam multifaceted artist, who was encouraged to remix the original artwork ( Paula Duró's "Madadayo" ) in a fresh and fun way.

Dinheiro (Maga Bo Remix) - MC Cidinho
Percussion by João Hermeto.
Recorded and Mixed at Comando Digital, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

dinheiro
quando tu tem tá cheio de amigo, se não tem neguinho
rala aí é foda

dinheiro,
dinheiro fede mas eu vou querer o meu
dinheiro,
primeiro, aperta a mão neguinho

dinheiro fede mas é ele que acaba com o problema do
sujeito
se o bagulho fica doido, tiver que ficar direito
com uma grana na mão resolvo tudo eu dou um jeito
dinheiro é foda já botou um montão na bola, olha o que
eu vou dizer
se o dinheiro é pouco mexe, não é teu então esquece
por isso muitos serviram como exemplo pra você neguim

refrão:
dinheiro é bom, mas incomoda
traz avareza, arrogância traz luxuria te deixa fora de
moda neguim
dinheiro é bom, mas incomoda
quando tu tem tá cheio de amigo, se não tem neguinho
rala ai é foda

sou da favela sei o que é vida dura sou vizinho da
tristeza
fui atrás da minha grana, não perdi a disciplina
nem deixei o sucesso subir na minha cabeça, jamais
esqueça
dificuldades já passei me reergui com ajuda que o
mano me deu
eu não sou capitalista não esquento pra dinheiro
tô na pista e gasto mesmo porque o dinheiro é meu

refrão.( 2 vzs )

Petrona Martinez & Maga Bo- El Critica

Initiated into candomblé at 8 years of age as Ogã de Xangô, Léo Leobons has rhythm in his veins. Today, he is the most accomplished Brazilian authority on afro-cuban folklore, having contributed to the education of a whole generation of percussionists from Rio de Janeiro. He has worked with everyone from Maria Rita to Azymuth; from Nando Reis to Pedro Luís e a Parede; from Lucas Santtana and Ramiro Musotto to appearances with Tito Puente and Eddie Palmieri. His work appears in films, documentaries, radio programs and television in Brazil and around the world.

Full of rich collaborations with brilliant musicians from across the spectrum of current and traditional music in Brazil, his new album, “Ritual," brings all of his experience together into one cohesive whole, traversing and combining Afro-Brazilian and Afro-Cuban traditions into one seamless and organic package. 

“Ritual REMIXED” takes it one step further by passing the original material along to a crew of remixers who push, pull, warp and morph the ancestral rhythms into productions meant to be heard on large sound systems.

Frikstailers "Guacha (Maga Bo Remix)"

ZZK, the Argentinian imprint borne out of the Zizek club nights in Buenos Aires, has a four-song record (artwork above) from the Mexico-based duo Frikstailers (a.k.a. Rafa Caivano and Lisandro Sona) on the way. They've offered up a remix of the title track by Brazilian producer Maga Bo in advance of the Guacha EP's December 3 release date to whet our palettes for the pair's eclectic style. "Guacha (Maga Bo Remix)" starts with a low rumble but soon explodes into low-slung bass, deadened percussion, oscillating synths, and two-step percussion with a Latin slant.

Im Nin'Alu (Maga Bo Remix) - Watcha Clan

Angolan / Portuguese Batida is back with the Alegria EP, the second remix laden offshoot single from his debut LP released early this year. Mixing the syncopated, synthetic rhythms of kuduro with elements of classic 1970s semba and congolese-influenced guitar licks Batida's creator Pedro Coquenão and others have extended and re-worked three of the best album cuts.

..........

Maga Bo adds extra percussion and urgency to the shuffling ‘Cuka’ that features Angolan MC Ikonoklasta telling the fictional story of an old maestro of the "Alcoholic Wako Kungo Orchestra" that only uses Cuca (Angolan national beer) cans and bottles as instruments and ends up “on the other side of the town” because he talks too much.

Fuego (Maga Bo Remix) - Bomba Estéreo

“Speaker-bangin’ before all else” (XLR8R) with “some of the smartest ears in the game” (Chicago Reader), “few can make a room explode like Maga Bo” (Flavorpill). A purveyor of “international sonic weaponry and rhythm knowledge” (Rough Trade), the Rio de Janeiro-based DJ/producer is a veteran pioneer of global bass music, with 20+ years of dedicated experience searching out unheralded music bumping from speaker-boxes in the world’s grittiest corners, from Addis Ababa to Zanzibar. 

Maga Bo’s sophisticated approach to international sounds comes from in-person, on-site collaboration with other artists. He has worked on location in Morocco, India, Ethiopia, Senegal, Zanzibar, and South Africa, to name just a few, while delving into a whirlwind of local styles: chaâbi, asmari music, taraab, manganiyar folk music, masqanda, and mbalax. All instruments and vocals come straight from the source. His original riddims and recordings, enriched by the presence of live vocalists and percussion, and enhanced by the philosophies of hip-hop and dub, take the global bass DJ set to a new level, one driven by first-hand experience searching open-air markets instead of just searching the web. 

His current work explores the contours of Afro-Brazilian culture and includes collaborations with the brightest talents in Brazil’s vast musical landscape. An immigrant himself, Maga Bo put down roots in his adopted hometown of Rio -- a cultural melting pot like no other where he has produced baile funk MCs and played drums in his neighborhood samba school. Journeys to Brazil’s northeast region have resulted in recording sessions with unsung folklore heroes Grupo Bongar and Samba de Coco Raízes de Arcoverde. 

A globally in-demand performer, Maga Bo has graced stages from India to Ethiopia to Brazil, at major summer festivals across Europe, and on tour in North America and Australia. He has performed at WOMAD UK, WorldWide, Sydney Festival, WOMEX, Transmediale and Mundial. He’s collaborated with Buraka Som Sistema’s Kalaf, Max Normala aka Ninja of South African rap-rave outfit Die Antwood, Ethio-Jazz godfather Mulatu Astatke, Bollywood star Shilpa Rao, and Brazilian chart toppers BaianaSystem and BNegão, and released critically acclaimed remixes for Asian Dub Foundation, Batida, Bomba Estéreo, Poirier, Filastine, and Systema Solar. 

Maga Bo’s groundbreaking debut full-length album, Archipelagoes, was released on DJ /rupture's Soot Records in 2008 after recording sessions in Senegal, Tanzania, Morocco and South Africa with heavyweight local rappers and musicians. His second full-length, Quilombo do Futuro, landed at #1 on the iTunes Brazilian music chart and #1 on the Rhapsody world music album of the year. The album was lauded by the New York Times as “a cultural manifesto riding on rhythm” and by National Public Radio (NPR) as “defin[ing] a kind of virtual refuge for traditional culture, giving it a welcome place in the techy global music soundscape of the 21st century." 

His track, ”No Balanço da Canoa,” garnered over half a million views on Youtube and was featured in Grand Theft Auto V and the opening ceremony of the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. He’s released music on Jarring Effects, Tru-Thoughts, Ninja Tune, Sound Way, ZZK, Cumbancha and many others. 

He currently releases confrontational, bass-heavy digital roots music from all over Brazil on Kaxambu Records and is an integrant of the live tropical-electro soundsystem band, Sociedade Recreativa. 

Having performed and worked in over 50 countries, Maga Bo walks the walk of the real globalization. Music is the weapon in a world of cultural appropriation, wide-spread poverty and mass migrations.
