INFO:
After the album “Synchronicities” by Inkswel and Andre Espeut (released end of 2024) was so well received, it is now time for a remix package to match it properly with three splendid re-works of the album track “Callin’ 4 U”.

We’re happy to have Jamie 3:26, hailing from Chicago, on the remix tip. His version of Callin 4 U is a superfunky soulful house gem with a decent jackin’ groove. 
Jamie’s remix works, edits and releases on labels like Defected, Toy Tonics, Heist, BBE, Glitterbox, Rebirth, Local Talk and more made him a stable figure in the global house circus.

6. Beatkozina feat. El Mago & Axel Camil - Merhba (Inkswel Remix Instrumental) (3:44)

Info:
Top notch remixes for Beatkozina. 
Laroye, who also recently remixed a Galliano track for Brownswood, delivered an ethereal tune with much musical respect to the original club hit. Moodorama (recently remixed Jazzanova, youANDme) present a version with an extra delicious pump. Chocolate Garage Production from Cologne stripped the airy house serenade down to the bone, while Inkswel cutting it to a new broken beat hemisphere. 

London - Marrakech multi-instrumentalists duo with uplifting afro house meets the Chicago loft house vibe. An electrifying and virtuosic performance. 

Merhba means welcome in Arabic and it's a traditional Moroccan Gnawa song that we tried to revisit with an afro house touch combined with a lofty chicago house vibe. Think Ron Trent/Joe Claussell influences.  

Beatkozina is an electronic and world music duo based between London and Marrakech made up of Mehdi Naami (DJ, musician, and producer) and Gregory Jouandon (jazz drummer, pianist, composer, and producer).
Both multi-instrumentalists, they share a strong passion for electronic music as well as world music. 

Beatkozina is the fruit of this interesting artistic encounter. Their collaboration draws its energy from the Afro matrix as well as a wide range of influences from North African, the Middle East, Indian traditional music, jazz, and Afro-Latin music.
Their sound is tied to researching African rhythmic and pentatonic mutations within new ecosystems including Latin America, the Caribbean, and the United States. They perform a connexion between Electro and Afro trances through the identification of Moroccan rhythmic patterns, minimalism, transposition, and confrontation producing a tribal, complex, contemporary sound that carries a subliminal message of universality and identity at the same time.

Klaus Benedek grew up in a small town near Vienna. His interest in electronic music began during the 90s techno hype. He spent hours watching video clips on MTV and viva and thus gaining knowledge about electronic music. In 2004, he began teaching himself to produce. Gathering his inspiration wherever he could, he began collecting 12" vinyl records the same year and 2 years later got his first dj-gigs. From 2008 till 2010 he was one of the resident DJs at the MNML Thursdays in the Camera Club. In 2012 he started with Alex Kolodziej the event-series Tellerbetrieb. Currently he finds most of his inspiration in Chicago House, Deep House, Disco and Breakbeat. After releases on labels like Petrol Dollar, Subversaal, rekooda, Soul Shift Music, Clean and Dirty Recordings and tanzbar, Klaus launched his own label forTunea in 2014.
