It is summer. The sun reflects off the water and shallow waves slowly break on the sandy shore. But suddenly the perception changes. The sound of the swell becomes increasingly rhythmic, and one gently recognizes the sound of a deep and melancholy melody. The light begins to dance on the surface of the sea and the whole scene is transformed into a picturesque view of bright colors paired with warm feelings.

Our loyal companion @luimafuta is responsible for this beautiful journey. The whole EP turned out to be a wonderful trip, refined with the help of @danielhokum, @niju-1 and @tlazohtla. A big thank you goes out to all the musicians, our artwork hero Kilian Van De Water and Haunted Water for the lovely mastering.

South African resident Málik Faquir joins Moodfamily with a unique sounding 4 track EP. His first single titled “Profound” narrates his experiences with early playful love. The same playfulness is fused masterfully with sharp sound design and efficient dub techno forming a sparse yet powerful dance floor theme. A masterclass in less is more.

Profound

Malik Faquir circles back to Moodfamily for another round. His “Nonchalantly” EP offers five more delicately crafted grooves, pushing and pulling away at your eardrums. No instant satisfaction, just pure - stripped back - power.
His unnerving yet efficient rhythms and whacked out synthesizer leads tear through speakers like a hot knife through butter. What comes is bumpy, relentless and unapologetic. It’s quite a spectacle to be on Malik Faquir’s rollercoaster. We raise the glass to this cheeky master in wonky strangeness and bending deep grooves.

Born in the dark streets of Cairo, grown to the unforgettable forests of Santa Esmeralda, spending its teen years in Bombay and Tangier markets, mature into the deep spacey Jungle of Ghana we proudly present you a new label from the land of the pyramids: SHANGO RECORDS invites you to an unheard world music psychedelic trip: like through a colorful kaleidoscope we will melt down Indian and Pakistani Vibes, Arab-Tek and Oriental groovy vibes, Afro-Beat rhythms n' pieces, Cumbia Tropicana flavors and cosmic Ghetto-Latin vibes into forbidden sounds of frenzied electronic dancefloor rituals. Outside traditional paths these driving grooves and polyphonic structures take the adventure seeking dancer to Dionysian highs and places never been before.

The fight is never over in the city of Dust. Life in Marakesh is no longer safe. Not since August’s disappearance, and whispers of a ghost controlling Pantheon. Meanwhile, Matthias stands torn between secretive twin, Abel, and best friend, Holed. Betrayal forces Matthias to leave the sanctuary of his forest home as he pursues the stolen Book of Marakesh. A book which could destroy the freedom of all those he loves if it falls into the wrong hands. And when he enters the ancient ruined city of Isca, he fights to protect the vulnerable from the iron grip of the Pantheon, while learning to fight for the people he loves. But with the shadow of the Black Aquila looming ever closer, will he put the freedom of others above his own, or will he follow his heart? M.Age.Project holds time in one hand and space in the other. This is his first offering for Shango Records. These two tracks have built the end into the beginning. Boubouteq, Holed Coin, Lui Mafuta, Mamazu and Vodoom are coming from another time and another space.
