Calma (Di Edit)

Rhode Trip embarks on an exhilarating and liberating journey along the sun-drenched California coastline. The focal track is a captivating cover of “The Doors - Riders On The Storm,” accompanied by “Strange Days” and “Love Set Me Free” on this newly released EP.

The rhythmic bohemian beats draw inspiration from the Renaissance era of the 1970s hippie movement. Notably, the enigmatic Hollywood Hills’ Laurel Canyon during that period served as a creative haven for renowned artists such as “The Doors,” inspiring them to craft a significant portion of their musical repertoire.

“Love Set Me Free” was conceived during the global pandemic of 2020, embodying themes of personal empowerment and resilience. It conveys an unwavering determination to navigate and overcome the challenges presented by these unprecedented times.

A journey through a storm evokes a profound sense of storytelling, capturing the essence of fearlessly traversing the unfamiliar and extraordinary circumstances that define our lives. Rhode Trip resonates with individuals who embrace unconventional lifestyles, honouring those who confront their fears and challenges, and reminding us that we are all collectively navigating the turbulent waters of life.

Rhode Trip is due for release on the 11th April 2025 on Exoteric Records.
Dream Wisely also plans to release around another 10 EPs over the coming 12 months.

Wormfood are proud to present a full EP of remixes of the Abobo Nation Part EP by UK afro electronic pioneers Afriquoi.

We’ve drawn on a wide range of the freshest names in the emerging afro electronic scene, including The Busy Twist (Soundway), LV (Keysound/Brownswood/Hyperdub), Octa Push (Soul Jazz/ Steakhouse/ Enchufada), Wonky Logic (Boom Better) and Ranga.


1. The EP opens with UK afro bass wonderkids The Busy Twist and their full power treatment of Carnabala. Already something of a dancefloor classic + with strong support from Radio 1 Xtra’s Mistajam,  they’ve made it bassier, heavier, and even more danceable, with new vocals from Zongo Abongo straight out of Ghana, adding to the original vocals from K.O.G. Zongo Central!

2. Fresh from releasing their incredible Lingua album, Portugese duo Octa Push bring their own Lusocentric take on bashment, grime, kaduro + UK funky known as ‘afro tuga’ –  giving a catchy, rolling new treatment to the vocals of Nigerian Adedeji Adetayo.

3. Liverpool’s Ranga’s take on To Na Musu is a deep, explorative  meditation on afro house reminiscent of the best of Boddhi Satva and Henrik Schwartz, bringing the kora more to the forefront and adding some spoken word from Afriquoi kora player + vocalist Jally Kebba Susso, explaining that the song is a tribute to the women of the world. What a smoothy….

4. South London’s LV need no introduction to any fans of forward thinking afro dance music, holding the space since 2007 with a host of amazing releases including the seminal ‘Boomslang’ with South Africa’s Okmalumkoolkat, their Routes album on Keysound with Joshua Idehen, Sebenza album on Hyperdub and their collaborations with Spoek Mathambo and latest album on Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood. Here they bring a shuffly, uptempo and slightly menacing treatment to the uplifting vocals of Kenya’s Maia von Lekow. Get it on loud!

5. Finishing off the EP is a low slung, brooding treatment of TOYK, adding original thumb piano, crushing synths and wonky, staggering beats to Jago’s rowdy dancehall vocals, showing why he is fast developing a name for himself as one of the most exciting artist in the burgeoning global leftfield hiphop scene.

We Are The Doors

There was much to see and much to do beneath the covered streets, the tarpaulin which hung from atop the towering buildings cast a shadow down upon the densely packed close. This was Owino market and the price was right for whatever and whichever wonder you chose to buy upon that fine day. The air was close and the tiny alleyways packed with the hustle and bustle of people moving between market stalls - the heat was stale under the tightly packed coveralls and inside was all the trinkets and treats you might ever desire. 

Kawuku Sound is the collaborative project of two electronic producers Contours and Cervo who have worked alongside Ugandan percussion troupe Fonkodelis Arkestra. They have release a six track EP with a blend of influences.

Paulo Moura - Rio Negro (Extendido Por Carrot Green)

When its 36 degrees in the southern hemisphere, and you and your partner are thinking of pre gaming Calipo Icy-poles before the club. This is the soundtrack you aux chord up, with your windows down in your 2010 Audi A5. Outfit suggestions would be low cut New Balance 574’s (sans socks), salmon shorts, and a t-shirt with a print that says ‘Ulysses Souvlaki EST 1992’.

Carving out an enviable reputation across the globe for his distinctive and highly personal brand of House music, Kiko Navarro’s voyage of sonic discovery has been going strong for almost three decades now. From London to the Far East, Kiko has travelled far and wide with his music, embracing sounds from each continent as he goes. 
 
Kiko’s new album, Afroterraneo- also named after his music label- defines the sound of his home. The album incorporates sounds touched by the Mediterranean Sea, drawing influences from Europe, Africa and his roots in the Balearic Islands. Afroterraneo is all about fusion. It includes Afro-Cuban songs like "Okere", "Karabali" and "Ekobio Monina", Midwest-African flavour on "Ihabogi Rawaly" and "Beréde", Flamenco with "La Fatiga", Balearic emotions with maestro Joan Bibiloni on "El Salto Del Martin" and "Vida", South African vibes on "Olwakhuthando", Afro Mbira lines with European TB303 acid blips on "Cacao Ceremony" and it all ends with his own tribute to his mother on "Para Mama".
 
Born on Mallorca, Kiko’s sound reflects the sun-drenched, slow living atmosphere of the Balearic island he still calls home. Obsessed from an early age with the more soulful side of US House music, Navarro’s DJ skills soon attracted the attention of nightlife behemoth Pacha who offered him club residencies both in Palma and in Ibiza. Next came a monthly gig at Space Ibiza and the rest, as they say, is history. 
 
A true Renaissance Man; now also a family man, today’s Kiko Navarro is perhaps even more focused and dedicated to his life in music than ever before. An album tour this year will see him play DJ sets in Italy, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece, Japan, South Korea, China with many more to be confirmed. Whether in the studio crafting records or in the club controlling the dance-floor, Kiko’s musical mission has become the habit of a lifetime
