In their 6 years of existence, Akalé Wubé have never stopped widening the canvas onto which they lay their music, which keeps becoming richer and deeper just like their primary source of inspiration: the popular Ethiopian repertoire of the 60s and 70s. The band started off by covering music from the 'Ethiopiques' series, after which they immersed themselves deeper into Ethiopian music, all the while multiplying their collaborations with musicians and dancers from Ethiopia, Africa and Europe. Slowly but surely, clocking in at around 200 concerts in Europe, Asia and Africa, the band has become one of the world’s leading ambassadors of Ethiopian groove.

'Mèmona' is a traditional Ethiopian piece from the Tigray Region (the northernmost of the nine ethnic regions of Ethiopia), played at weddings. Akalé Wubé discovered the song as sung by Tèwèldè Rèdda on the 'Éthiopiques 5: Tigrigna Music 1970-1975' compilation from Buda Musique, released in 1999. They covered it in their third album 'Sost', and it has since grown into one of the great rockin' jams in their setlists. Nonetheless, saxophone and flute player from the band Etienne de la Sayette has decided to try his producing chops on a remix, trying to bring the tune into a gritty psychedelic afro-rock trip, with lots of sanza...

Akalé Wubé - Mèmona (Etienne de la Sayette Remix Remix)

The "legendary Congolese band has joined forces with acclaimed Angolan/Portuguese artist Batida aka Pedro Coquenão."

Their sound is a spectacular electro-traditional mix.  With only rudimentary amplification and handmade instruments they have managed to  create otherworldly music for over 40 years.

They have collaborated with the likes of Björk and Herbie Hancock. 

Full length comes on on April 29th.

Over 20 years ago we were the first company to start representing and licensing independent music and 20 years later, we’re still at it. And, just like any cool and successful business idea, we've been flattered, sincerely, many, many times. We represent (exclusively) a multitude of record labels, publishers and artists for licensing in films, television, commercials, trailers, video games, and any other form of media that wants to license our music.

The music we represent spans all genres: indie rock, singer-songwriter, alternative, pop, hip-hop, soul, R&B, jazz, contemporary blues, country, metal, bluegrass, punk, EDM (dub-step, house, etc.) world music, African disco, bollywood, flamenco, dub reggae, salsa and all kinds of crossovers and variances in between! We also have tons of vintage music and field recordings that cannot be found anywhere else.

Much of the music that we represent is "one-stop" for sync & master rights and we are known for our fast clearances. Often times we can clear a song in 24 hours or less. If there are outside publishers, we can help you locate them and assist in clearance when possible.

We can help you find the sound to set the mood for a scene - be it cutesy or gory. We have that perfect song (no matter how many times directions change) for branding that will make consumers want to buy and remember to buy. Please email us with your list of demands and musical needs.
