Out of the primordial chaos of pandemic and two years since their last full-length outing SUPERSAN, those sassy purveyors of World Dance of the highest calibre return with a bang. Duo’s 3rd studio album soon to be released by Boom Selectah Records promises to turn heads and perk ears of the aficionados of Afro House but also has a potential to spill out from the niche and conquer the hearts of wider audiences.
The album titled ‘Little Dakar’ is’ the labour of love of two long time collaborators from Greece, Kostas and Valantis. This time their quest for musical purity and honesty is enriched and enhanced by stirring alliances. Scattered inside the audio-tapestry of this exotic wax flower you will find the vocals from ‘the voice of Senegal’ Jefree, and enchanting strumming from the fret of George Koltsiou. While rich traditions of Senegali music are particularly evident (and reflected in the album title), ‘Little Dakar’ goes far and beyond the sounds of a steamy Dakar Disco dancefloor. Finely tuned ear is in for a treat and could easily travel the distances between Senegal, Angola, Ghana, Uganda and Mali to name but a few. But you don’t have to be an expert to fall in love with this album. The multidimensional colours of African musical heritage are easily accessible to a novice too as the references to better known House and Funk traditions could be heard loud and clear throughout the record.
What makes ‘Little Dakar’ stand out as a clear winner is the up-tempo, dancefloor-oriented approach that SUPERSAN chose to pursue on their third studio album. With ease and panache, the duo throws our way some insane musical chops, while keeping the mood Sunny and vocal hooks joyful. The spectre of moods with which SUPERSAN bombard us is impressive but be it the epic retro-tinged drive of ‘Diem Rek’ or somewhat more sombre, afro-gothic yet seductive push of ‘BLZ’, the hooks of the ‘Little Dakar’ are unmistakably sharp and are sure to act as a call to arms on any discerning dancefloor. 

• Written and produced by Panama Cardoon and Mister Kentro.
• Lyrics and voice by Diefree Diop.
• Guitars and additional production by George Koltsiou.
• Mixed by Andrés Odonne at Bugambilia Estudio.
• Mastered by Yiannis Christodoulatos at Sweetspot Productions.

A1 – Let I Go Feat. Anthony Joseph (Mr Raoul K’s version)
B1 – Kamakumba (Simbad Dub)
B2 – Kamakumba (iZem remix)

first remix was done by Mr Raoul K who is well known for his productions that mixes original African instruments with Techno and Deep House. His releases spreaded his unique sound over the world with great acclaim from Gilles Peterson, Joe Claussel and many other DJs.
His 12 min epic rework is full of psychedelic elements, hypnotic grooves and african percussions. Gilles Peterson already supported this one on his Worldwide show.

Young prodigy of good music, DJ & producer Simbad has become – while making 3 albums and more than 200 productions & remixes – one of the most demanded beatmakers in today’s electronic scene.
Simbad brings Mop Mop’s “Kamakumba” into a killer dancefloor tune full of dub elements and tight beats. The original version of “Kamakumba” has been “Today’s Top Tune” on the legendary “KCRW” radio.

French producer and DJ iZem started writing music during a 6 year-long musical adventure through Brazil, Spain, Argentina and Ireland. Now based in Lisbon, his unique hybrid sound joins the dots between cutting-edge beatmaking and post-tropical influences. His remix is a mid tempo funk pearl with refined Jazz and Hip-Hop elements.

The Remix Machine has been in constant flow pumping remixes since the late 90's until today. Thanks to all the artists who gave me the opportunity to take their music in another direction... mainly the dance-floor direction. Special thanks to Zeb aka The Spy from Cairo & Chris Annibell aka Osiris who I started working on remixes with since the beginning. Thank you to Marcus Tupi Visual Lab for the original design taking the idea of a Remix Machine being a pizza & negroni filled heart & all the labels who helped me get this compilation together. Please check the entire digital compilation at turntablesonthehudson.bandcamp.com and even more comprehensive list of remixes not on this compilation at Nickodemus Spotify page. *Only tracks 1 - 8 are on the vinyl.

Atropolis - Gaita Flute (Nickodmus Remix)

Over the pandemic, Fred would check in with me ask what I'm working on & how I'm handling the situation. We both started with the ASR-10 sampler & we discussed trading unfinished tracks & sample discs & finishing each others tracks. In the meantime, I made him this 2 record mash-up on my turntables as part of that series I was keeping myself & record collection busy with. He loved it but I never dropped it, so here it is for our B-Boy extRedAstaire R.I.Beats Freddie uniting  with some heavy hitters up in the Hip Hop Heavens - I hope you're feeling all this love Worldwide. Condolences to the whole family, I want you to know we tried getting him to NYC many times but he loved you guys so much he never wanted to leave home. Love from NYC, Nickodemus

LA ISLA (Nickodemus Remix) - Megablast feat. Eribertho Cruz

We just released @babaloustudio / @musicbykees debut EP; Hatari EP is an international collaboration between Baba Lou (Kees van Driel, multi-
instrumentalist/producer from Amsterdam) and two amazing Tanzanian vocalists, Agutu and Rose.

In late 2021, Kees moved his studio to Tanzania, to live in the African countryside for a year. He recognised some serious vocal talent amongst the local hospital staff and crafted a four-track EP.
Combining a wide variety of genres, Hatari EP is a recollection of experiences from East Africa told in lyrical melodies and infectious grooves.

Humbling testimonies from the hospital, the abundant wildlife in the outskirts of the Serengeti; Hatari EP draws inspiration from life in rural Africa. But also from the vibrant nightlife in the area and the sheer beauty of the environment.

KELLEN DE VOS - GRAND SLAM

I was honoured when Pierre Chrétien asked me to do a remix of the single "Parasite" just around  the "Manifesto" album release.
This version was only previously released on a promo CD that I'm aware of and has never been publicly available.
In a recent conversation with Pierre I asked is he was cool with me putting it up on my Soundcloud for "you all" and he was in.  I then spoke with label head of "Do Right! Music", John Kong, to make sure everything was cool on his end and he was down.
If you're digging the remix please don't forget to support the artists and label!

There is also a limited vinyl pressing available with a surprise dance floor killer that was pulled off my site on the flip.

Urban / Organic / Electronic / Global MUSIC you can bend a knee to!

Nickodemus is a traveler at heart—a connector of worlds, scenes, and people since the mid-90s. Over his extensive career as a touring DJ and producer, including 5 albums and canonical tunes like “My Swing es Tropical” and “Cleopatra in New York”, he’s helped pave the way for an inimitable mix of global fusion and the heavy beats we yearn for in the club. His music has long thrived on the close relationships and mutual respect of friends he’s built across the continents, felt through the worldly potions he cooks up in the studio, and spanning electronic sounds rooted in Latin, African, and Eastern instrumentation. His latest album, A Long Engagement, serves as a culmination of the inspirations he’s absorbed and remains rooted in his life as native New Yorker and the city’s nostalgic energy. 

Nickodemus’ sound is often focused on the connective tissue of his many live collaborations and the electronic solitude of his studio (or record-filled bubble, as he calls it). Through his much-loved label Wonderwheel Recordings, he’s not only regularly releasing some of the most soul-shaking, eclectic sounds in the biz, but focusing deeply on artist development and creating long-lasting moments that live on far longer than their track length. The music you hear in his releases are filled with expression, reflection, and care; they’re both open-minded and deeply focused, a rarity at time in today’s overcrowded music industry. 

As a remixer, he’s also lent his “Remix Machine” to a wide range of artists including pioneers like Bob Marley and Nina Simone, as well as other like minded genre-welders like Thievery Corporation, Quantic, and Mr. Scruff. Throughout his career he’s also carved an important niche in the live music scene with his beloved Turntables on the Hudson parties, that have popped up everywhere from New York to Cairo.  
 
Currently on tour around Europe & USA, his latest album "Soul and Science" is another portrait into the importance of shared ideas and the dialogue artists can share when they look past language or place of birth. It’s another bass-heavy global party and we’re all invited.
