Neşe Karaböcek - Yali Yali (Todd Terje Edit)

@ibaaku, the latest in a string of names he has given himself, is an artist on the move, ethereal, propelled by an eclectic and insatiable appetite for sound.

His creative path started early on in Thiès, where playing keys and clarinet gradually carried him into various genres through which he meandered, hip hop, soul, jazz, folk. Always momentarily, always on their fringes.

His music owes to Dakar's buzzing and sprawling urbanism, home to his recording studio, as much as it does to Casamance's green stretches and to Sardinia's rugged landscapes, where he likes to retreat, getting lost to better find himself.

Since the end of the 1990s, he has produced records for artists and released two albums with his successive groups, making him a pivotal figure in the hip hop scene. He wanders inside as an eccentric insider, a b-boy freed from the codes, attitudes and requisite forms.

Because he is a stranger to contemporary out-and-out advertisement culture, he remains a confidential artist, busier crafting than promoting. His artistic integrity, his freedom of movement remain unaltered, and are manifested in the multifaceted work he continues to build with his group I-Science, his personal compositions or his collaboration with fashion designer Selly Raby Kane on this opus, Alien Cartoon, initially conceived as the soundtrack to her recent fashion show in Dakar.

Curious about the world and the artistic innovations it reveals, mobilized to blast the walls and boundaries pitted within music by the business, Ibaaku is one of these millennials who form the avant-garde of contemporary creativity on the African continent. (Mamadou Diallo, Jan 2016)

Fatnotronic - 7,8 E 1 (STW Premiere)

FullMoon Release # 2 
Master R.Carlos Nakai Flute and vocals, with much respect and in the way to share the love and knowledge in those sacred vibrations.

The other moons stay home as the full moon rises and sways, following the movement of the flute. The simple small gathering must last all night, so the flautist plays “night custodian,” keeping the moon charmed by blowing off two-inch strings of melody through a double barrel (one barrel in front of the other). Among the handful that have gathered: one claps, one taps foot, two more play cabasa and clave; all keep time for the flautist; the moment the flautist ceases, the moon will sink into the swamp.

Dark Hour [Video Live on Youtube]

This set is dedicated to the tribes around the world who are taking a stand for their traditions, their people and the earth. 

As I recorded this set in the warmth of my home, my heart ached for the people of Standing Rock being sprayed with water cannons in freezing temperatures, for the Lakota elders with soaked feet chanting in the night, yet they stand peacefully as the first nations have done for centuries.

It's easy to feel angry and disconnected, especially when we are alone fighting for a cause. But through art, our voice is heard. The intelligent, creative, driven youth on this planet have the power to replace the old guard.

It is time for us to take a stand together.

Through 18 diverse tracks, this compilation offers a timely revelation of how immigration to Europe and the United States from the Cape Verde Islands in the 1980s gave us an alternate history of electronic music, almost a decade ahead of its time, as traditional Funana rhythms met the synthesizer.
