В 70-х годах прошлого века на африканском континенте сыскал невероятную популярность афробит – жанр, сочитающий в себе африканскую традиционную музыку, джаз и фанк. Позже, на волне интереса к регги, сукусу и другой африканской музыке, в России стали появляться афробит-коллективы, важной частью которой стали представители африканской диаспоры. Костя Экономов – основатель московской афробит группы Zava Matotra, художник и преподаватель МГХПА им. Строганова. С начала двухтысячных годов он принимает участие в жизни московской афробит-сцены и так или иначе столкнулся почти со всеми её участниками. Мы поговорили с Костей о работе с африканскими музыкантами, о жизни афробита на просторах столицы в течении последних двух десятков лет и о взаимном влиянии музыки Африки и Европы друг на друга.

Костя Экономов: московский афробит, регги и сукус

Karlin @ TESTFM — 30/05/2021

Powell is back with 'No U Turn', a track taken from his new 12" Club Music, the first on his own Diagonal imprint since 2012's Body Music. 

Having remixed the likes of Silent Servant and Ike Yard and released on The Death Of Rave and Liberation Technologies in the intervening period, Powell's return to Diagonal find him in imperious form; 'No U Turn' is a stubbornly percussive, dingy techno club tool that finds him operating in very much his own space.

After two years of parties and 40 guest mixes to promote audio sophrology, 90’s reminiscences, psychedelic atmospheres and exotic breaks, the Bamboo Shows are now taking a step forward.
Through the first release of the label, head-honcho @erevandj gathered talented friends from his Lyon hometown as well as worldwide producers to spread the Bamboo spirit with 15 exclusive tracks. Featuring renowned RAMZi, Niklas Wandt, Star Searchers’ Spencer Clark and Candomblé’s DJ Ungel & DJ Rasputin and local heroes Eiger Drums Propaganda, Christian Coiffure, Jacques Satre or Lastrack.

Divided in two parts, the “Bamboo Shows Tapes 001” blends everything from modern productions to late 20th century inspirations, going around soothing new age, poetic fourth-world music and psychedelic folk on A-Side, while B-Side focuses on more rhythmical materials with slightly-acid transcendental breaks and mystical downtempo.

B3. Jacques Satre - The Shelter (Thunder Mix) [BST001]

Influential “ambassador of distant intimacy” from Tromsø, techno capital of Norway, Charlotte Bendiks releases double A-side of hypnotic techno for Matthew Herbert’s Accidental Jnr label.

“Bon-Sexy” is an eloquent expression of the deep and dark “body music” aimed directly at the dancefloor.  Boldly confident and fully present, it playfully assembles into a vibrant, passionately engaging and unapologetic temptation.

PREMIERE: Charlotte Bendiks - Bon-Sexy [Accidental Jnr]

Guest mix number 31 comes from the Bologna province. Carlo Mameli, aka BXP, caught our ears last year with his hypnotic “Islands” EP. His brand Random Numbers has created the buzz lately, but in fact already having quite catalogue behind its belt. In the DJ territory, Carlos oscillates between IDM infused electronics, techno-ish breaks, and whatever that current mixed stuff is called. Enjoy this new addition to our guest mix series, recorded somewhere in Italy during quarantine.
