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.

Rework collection focusing on pleasure music in Turkey, Egypt, Morocco, probably unknown!

Melancholy pilgrimage music journey in which a smooth Kobushi turning on a dry wind dancing in the dust shakes into a hero syndrome.

Evergreen - Comme Si (Mawimbi Remix)

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.

Kawuku Sound

PREMIERE: Kawuku  Sound - Owino Market [Banana Hill]

There was very little to be seen out here but for rocks and sand. The dust blew abruptly in great clouds across the open expanse under the dense breeze of the midsummer wind. It was hot and heavy, making the eyes sting and a clenched face a must. The glowing pink sky offered the slight promise of rain and a cool release at some point in the near future but for now it was up to them to ride out the mist in all the glory of the Eastern world. It was going to be a long afternoon...

Terr is an artist moving from strength to strength - following releases on the likes of Permanent Vacation she now appears on Clash Lion with a sprawling assortment of electronics.

Dust

PREMIERE: Terr - Dust (Terr Raw Electro Mix) [Clash Lion]

The people in the room began to dance, worries were left outside on the pavement and would not be collected until sometime tomorrow morning. All love within this desparate place was to be found amidst the room, what was external was to be forgotten and ignored for the time being. He had come here to dance with freedom and self preservation. This was his night upon the floor and the rest of society could give a damn how he moved to and fro with a swing in his step. 

Ryan Berkeley is set to release an inspired new EP on Houses In Motion in what will be the fifth outing on the record label. A strong release spanning a breadth of genres and style - this one is a treat.

PREMIERE: Ryan Berkeley - All Love [Houses In Motion]

The sunlight was piercing through the blind as he lay softly upon the cushioned floor. Inside the apartment it was still dark and shadowy after the carnage of the night before. Opwning his eyes he looked around to observe the scene which had unfolded. Toppled tables and chairs lay scattered upon the floor like discarded toys whilst music still echoed on from the speaker sat promptly in the corner of the room. He let out a sigh and smiled, this was home. 

ONIPA is set to release a new afro inspiredEP on Mawimbi Records and Wormfood Records. Mr. Boom is on remix duties for this one.

PREMIERE: ONIPA - Open My Eyes (Mr. Boom Remix) [Mawimbi & Wormfood Records]

The earth rotated slowly day by day, the moon would appear only to be swept away by the dense blue sky of the morning and the radiant light. The sun had more power than we might ever imagine - to some it was a god, to others simply an incomprehensible object millions of miles away beyond reach. Heaven forbid the day we might find ourself within the touching distance of the great orb for we might burn helplessly to death - a little planet wiped out by fire, one with which we should never have played. 

Night Noise are set to release a new EP by Mantas & Vencla complete with an intriguing rework by the infamous Pete Herbert. Not one to take half measures his cut is inspired and strong.

PREMIERE: Mantas & Vencla - Sun (Pete Herbert Remix)[Night Noise]

Five years into its existence, Mawimbi Records has carved its own special place in the field of contemporary dance music, championing traditional sounds while setting its eyes to the future. With a dozen albums and EPs from the likes of Loya, Onipa, Pouvoir Magique, Umeme, Africaine 808, Umoja and many other upcoming artists, Mawimbi Records still has many wonders to unveil, hence this "Summer Sampler", made of 4 tracks taken from forthcoming Mawimbi Records releases.
"Global Integration" is London-based producer Marot first ever original production and a beautiful deep-house journey designed for afterhour parties and hot summer nights. After a brilliant forray into UK bass music with his stomping remix of Onipa’s track "I Know", Marot ventures into a more soulful territory, blending an hypnotic acid pattern with ritual Yoruba drums and dreamy pads.

PREMIERE : Marot - Global Integration

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’.
