Gombato features a groovy bassline, and a wonderful implementation of original recorded african percussion, amazing vocals and some progressive synth elements, flutes, and a mellow but driving kick, which makes the track a perfect groovy and funky opener.

Elias (GER) an outstanding producer in Afro House with releases on epic labels such as Moe Black etc.. interprets Gombato in his smooth, deeper and more electronic approach. He kicks it off with a punchy but muffled kick and old vinyl recording texture, synth progression and Idd Aziz voice. Weaving gently in a groovy bassline a poignant shaker as well as percussive elements. A fantastic jazzy organ melody complements his track where he improvises on top of this outstanding groove. 
Furthermore you can expect 1 instrumental version and one shorter Radio version for your pleasure.

Max Doblhoff & Idd Aziz - Gombato (Original) - Leisure Music Productions

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts – a proverb which definitely holds true for this colourful and energetic EP, coming straight from the island of Lamu, Kenya. Recorded during the pandemic in 2021 at the iconic Lamu House, this record brilliantly reveals how music can transcend borders between cultures, genres and even musical epochs. At its core lies Taarab music native to the Swahili coast, which in itself is a heritage from times when the area was under Omani protectorate. An Noor is a Taarab band from Lamu who root in tradition and bring the past into the present: Their Tabla drums remind us of days where Arabic influences were formative, their mesmerizing vocals tell stories of love and pain, as relevant today as they were then. Their sound is complimented by Makadem, composer and player of traditional Kenyan instruments such as the Nyatiti harp. Makadem himself is no stranger to fusing ancient and modern musical schools and has reached international recognition for his crossover arrangements. On Into Taarab, producers Max Doblhoff and Sidney Simila (Clubcruise Music, Music From East Africa) frame the magic of these Lamu sessions in club-friendly edits, dreamy and driving, and always carrying the Clubcruise signature sound that feeds both body and soul.

I had the incredible honor of DJ-ing for the wedding of Romain & Manya, two people who hold a special place in my heart. As both DJ and Padrino for the weekend, I am overjoyed to finally share the mix I curated for their unforgettable celebration. 
Due to the lively and dynamic nature of the day, I wasn't able to play the entire set I had prepared. Here is the complete set as I envisioned it—a reflection of the deep connections and wonderful moments shared during their magical weekend. This recording, made at home, captures the essence of the love and joy that filled the air that day. Enjoy the music!

To Romain & Manya, I LOVE YOU and wish you an incredible life together.

Another one from my favorite party of NY. The closing of Season 6 with over 600 guests, for another memorable day into night. 

This is my 2 hour set playing at sunset, building up for Theo Meier. I was feeling particularly bouncy that day, which I believe is reflected in the music :) Hope you enjoy! 

Thanks again Jon and Alaya for putting together such a beautiful space for us all <3

The Goldcast 139 (Aug 22, 2025) with guestmix by Ecklectic Mick

"Saba Bo" refers to the Tom Tom, which was traditionally used in East Africa, which was once used for news transmission and mainly as a warning drum!

Around the same time with the album release of Max Doblhoff's "Africa La", the third single release named "Saba Bo" will be released.
The original track has a strong rhythmic imprint, dominated by the two instruments Tom Tom and Kora - the later almost virtuosic played by the great musician Baboulaye Cissokho, his character of Senegalese origin.
The typical African "Roots-Style", originally originated in Senegal, but developed in further adaptations to Kenyan stylistics.

The version with Idd Aziz is a fusion of funky elements, a subtle electro-disco touch, enriched with contemporary synth-chords.

Other remixes are from Makossa & Megablast and the Viennese newcomer Ksawa and will be completed soon after the single release in July 2017!!

Max Doblhoff creates a modern and traditional crossover between electro-acoustic beats from Vienna and East and West African music. Max  productions contain numerous analog recorded instruments and grooves that have shaped the rapidly growing African house scene in recent decades: Afro House and Afro Fusion, Tribal House, Latin, Cumbia, Funk, Disco and Electronic Grooves. His musical journeys through parts of Africa (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Morocco), the feeling for the vibe of the countries and their traditions, the discovery of individual musical tribes and the culture of spontaneous improvisation shape Max’s musical style.
