About ALMHD (instrumental)

ALMHD is a track created by Pablo after woke up one summer day of 2021, for this reason the name came from Almohada (Pillow), continuing the energy of the dreams, inspired on chill lofi sounds with reggaeton groove, to dance dreaming on a beach from latinamérica.

It is the first single by Don Plok after his first European Tour, as the first release of his next album, in a collaboration between the Folcore and Rebel Up labels. Mixed at Nogal Estudio and Oídos Contentos, mastered at Oídos Contentos by Manuel Schaller, producer of the album with Pablo.

The next singles will feature important international featurings, such as Soom T. Each month a new single will be released prior to the release of the album in digital and vinyl format, which will be published at the end of April or beginning of May, anticipating their next European Tour.

Acerca de ALMHD (instrumental)

Este track suave y bailable combina un beat de reggaetón con armonías que asoman al RNB o nu soul, sin perder la cadencia de los ritmos latinoaméricanos.

ALMHD es un track creado en una mañana después de levantarse, (el nombre viene de Almohada). Continuando el mood de los sueños, Pablo aka Don Plok presenta guiños melódicos de RnB o lofi, con un groove de reggaeton que invita a bailar en una playa de latinoamérica. Es el primer single de Don Plok después de su primer Tour Europeo, como primer lanzamiento de su próximo álbum, en una colaboración entre los sellos Folcore y Rebel Up. Mezclado en Nogal Estudio y Oídos Contentos, masterizado en Oídos Contentos por Manuel Schaller, productor del disco junto a Pablo.
Los próximos singles contarán con importantes featurings internacionales, como Soom T. Cada mes saldrá un nuevo single previo al lanzamiento del álbum en formato digital y vinilo, el cual se publicará a finales de abril o principios de mayo, anticipando su próximo Tour Europeo.

EP Sou Kono Remix à venir le 27 mai 2016 (vinyle + digital).

Unanimement salué par la critique, Midnight Ravers a réussi le pari de livrer avec son second album une oeuvre complète, où l'image (dessin et vidéo), la musique et la performance live animent de façon croisée l'âme d'un Mali moderne et en profonde mutation où l'occident et la tradition culturelle nationale se mêlent avec générosité et subtilité.

Preuve - s'il en fallait une supplémentaire - que Midnight Ravers est désormais l'un des éléments clés de ces musiques électroniques africaines qui ont le vent poupe, tout ce qu'on compte cet univers de références internationales sexy et pointues est présent sur cet EP : Spoek Mathambo, Mawimbi, Simbad et Gulls!
Chaque artiste a immédiatement accepté de réinterpréter à sa façon l'un des titres de l'album, afin de donner corps à un nouvel opus de 4 titres représentatifs de la diversité musicale africaine moderne si chère à Midnight Ravers.


Midnight Ravers - Sou Kono Remix - Koroni Foli (remix by Mawimbi)

When it came out in 1984 the far-out album Sweet Sweet Dreams by Trinidad & Tobago’s Shadow (aka Winston Bailey) was described as “way ahead of its time”. Undeservedly it was panned by critics and, unable to reach markets, disappeared into the dusty record collections of a few music aficionados. Now, more than three decades later that cosmic dance-floor UFO is about to take off again, change all that and set the record straight. Remastered and cut by Frank Meritt at The Carvery the album is truly a masterpiece.

But who is this Shadow behind Sweet Sweet Dreams? Shadow is a man of understated magnitude. A truly enigmatic artist, he first emerged in Trinidad and Tobago during the 1970s, becoming a part of the tapestry of Caribbean music and reinvigorating calypso at the time. Calypso, the indigenous folk music of Trinidad and Tobago, has roots in West African kaiso rhythms, French Creole influences, and the hardships endured by the African slaves brought to Trinbago, whose descendants still use it as a tool for satire, self-expression,  and social commentary. Calypso has also given birth to several other music genres, including soca, with its uptempo beats and festival context. Shadow effortlessly moves between both.

Accoring to Carl "Beaver" Henderson, one of Trinidad's veteran producers; “Shadow broke all the traditional musical rules and made his own and that made him a musical giant. He changed the face of Calypso music in 1974 with the release of "Bassman" a tune in which Bass and magnificent horn line took central stage changing Soca music for ever. What Shadow did with his music was to put calypso on the International Dance circuit, giving it a totally different groove. You could take his music and swing it in any direction; Disco, Pop, Calypso, you name it. His music was different from anything that existed before”. 

This inert creativeness culminated in Sweet Sweet Dreams which was arranged by Shadow and deals with burning and ever-relevant themes like love and the ups and downs of relationships. a surprising fact for someone mainly known for his satirical and political lyrics. It prompted his manager to wonder if Shadow had written the lyrics while in a state of ‘tabanca’ (a word used in Trinidad and Tobago to describe lovesickness). 

Sweet Sweet Dreams was recorded at the legendary SHARC studios, located on a hill in Chaguaramas (near Port of Spain) and despite a fantastic sound and monster Soca-boogie tunes like “Lets get it together”, “Lets Make it Up” and “Way, Way Out” the album was a commercial flop, probably due to the fact that it didn’t sound like anything else coming out of Trinidad & Tobago at the time: It fused a range of different rhythms and new sounds, primarily heavy synth riffs.

Shadow took the album’s lack of success in his stride with usual aplomb:
“When I did Sweet Dreams I expect something could happen. But nothing big happen because I have no big market and no distribution and all this thing now. So I just cool myself and move on to another song. I wasn’t doing just one song. I used to always have plenty songs at the one time. And be writing music”.

What Shadow didn’t realise back then was that the proto-electronic cocktail he had mixed in 1984 would only find the recognition it deserved three decades later. Life has swung full circle: Sweet Sweet Dreams has come true and been elevated to holy grail status becoming one of the most sought-after Caribbean disco records in existence. Asked about this turn around Shadow mused  “I’m trying to understand that part. A lot of people ask me for it over a few years now. But I never give anybody it. That music wasn’t for then. It’s for now”.
