Antelope

Born in London, raised in Thailand, and now based in Berlin, Aaroon possesses a worldliness that inexorably manifests itself in his music by informing both emotional breadth and stylistic diversity. The DJ and producer’s E.P. Cry for Kashmir is simultaneously a statement on half-forgotten crises occurring around the world, an optimistic nudge towards global peace, and a testament to the power of art, created on the belief that music can physically affect anything from a human brain down to the structure of a snowflake. Feeling, technical dexterity, and raw emotional expression play out across the “little stories” of this release, as Aaroon puts it.

Lost & Found

Ethno Lab

The "Masala EP" is the first release from RISE MUSIC, a natural evolution from the RISE events, showcasing some of the world's forward thinking African-influenced producers and artists.

Floyd Lavine is a South Africa born and now Berlin based producer and one of the founding members of RISE. As Floyd proudly states “ I draw inspiration from the magic of Africa and expressing the future through an unlimited sonic expression which I call African Techno. For me when I think of Africa I envision beautiful enigmatic bright colours, I see humility, I see pain, I see joy, I see determination, I see perseverance, I see dance, laughter, ritual, tradition, an undefined unity but above all I feel pure expression and eternal love. “

Enough said. The EP will soon be available digitally and physically.

Known to many as the godfather of the Afro Tech sound, Afrocentric Records welcomes Benny T to the label.

Benny T, also known as Benedict Mabe, is a very prominent name which has been linked with dance floor blasting electronic music bangers for the past few years. Hailing from Kanye , a village in Botswana, now residing in the capital city Gaborone , is the mastermind himself who has a brand new two tracker EP comprising of tracks Trailblazer and Lebowa, which both resemble the new
dimension of the underground Afrotech era. 

The most anticipated release is called “Trailblazer EP” and it’s surely nothing short of marvel more especially for those who follow techno/tech fused with African beats. This wonderful piece of work, carefully crafted and coated with a touch of his distinctive sound.
Supporting Trailblazer is Lebowa, delightful twinkling keys built around thundering claps and haunting insistent synths make this track a potential lead track in its own right .

Tracklist

1. Trailblazer 
2. Lebowa

Benny T - Trailblazer & Lebowa will be released on Afrocentric Records exclusive to Traxsource on 7th February and general release on the 21st February 2020

We welcome them to the Afrocentric Records with the vocal gem featuring Zano. The original mix is pure dancefloor Afro House, but when you get to the Candyman remix that's when things get exciting, a beautiful, thoughtful, musical remix keeping minimal elements from the original and adding Candyman magic dust to it . Drega takes his remix into Afro Tech town with swelling synths a dramatic build-up, keeping the listener on the edge of their seat.
