Toukadime #53 La Vie Des Bars

There's a lot that's infectuous in Pakistani cinema from the seventies and most infectuous are surely the plentiful dance scenes on par with the best of sister industry in India - but here the dancing ladies are more agile, sometimes even serpentinous, less bombastic, performing solo and always joyful. And, yes, sensuous too, boldly flirting with the camera, clearly having agency while they lip-sync Nahid Akhtar's singing. Important detail is that they are almost always barefooted. There's dancing guys too but they remain in the shadow of their female colleagues. This mix from the early 2000s was originally called Barefooted Funk but it didn't communicate on the little cover pic I did for Soundcloud. But still, you can hear from the songs in this selection that no footwear was involved. It's light-footed and light-hearted, grounded and - again - extremely agile. There's loads of hand-percussion, bold guitars, horn- and organ-stabs and of course joyous singing. There was something in the air in seventies Pakistan for sure!

I've lived in Pakistan for a while around the year 2000 and wrote a few articles at the time on Pakistan's genre cinema, resulting in a chapter in Cinema and Society ('Pashto Horror Film In Pakistan' - Oxford University Press Pakistan) which zoomed in on the unlikely horror-film boom in Pakistan's North-West Frontier Province. While staying in Lahore I was lucky to meet the owner of a cassette store called Jupiter Tuning Center who was looking to get rid of the back catalogue in the back of his shop, many hundreds of them (he used these 45's to compile tapes on demand for his customers but demand for cassettes was declining). 

After assisting Edo Bouman in releasing a few Bollywood compilations (The Bombay Connection and Bombshell Baby of Bombay), we wanted to try and compile the best of these Pakistani tracks, but Finder's Keepers skooped us with a couple of great compilations and discouraged we went on to do other things. This was before everything could be found on youtube and I mainly played this and other mixes on the local Amsterdam radio station Radio 100.

Here are some absolute favorites. I don't know if they were all compiled before, I hope there are some songs you haven't heard yet!

Sharing With you My Cassette /Vinyl Collection Live Mix

Gnawa musicians have carved out a unique niche within Moroccan society, as people with revered spiritual power who use music and movement to heal the sick.  The Gnawas’ ancestors came to North Africa as slaves.  Today they are an elite class of musicians and spiritualists, celebrated in an annual festival that attracts some 400,000 fans, and invited to collaborate with such notable international artists as jazz legend Randy Weston.  In this program, originally produced in 2009, author and scholar Deborah Kapchan guides us through the history, practices, music, lore and unique contemporary stature of the Gnawa, both in Morocco and on the world stage. Interviews with Hassan Hakmoun, historian Mohammed Ennaji, and gnawa scholar Tim Abdella Fuson. Produced by Banning Eyre.

Maghreb Cassette Lockdown Mix

Toukadime est un projet initié par deux dj’s Krimau et Bachir qui, depuis 2011, s’évertuent à faire vivre leur collection de disques vinyle en provenance du Maghreb, la partageant sur la toile, sur les ondes ou en soirée.
Les deux comparses à l'univers hétéroclite ont fait leurs armes dans le deejaying en mixant toute sorte de musique avec toutefois un attrait évident pour la culture afro américaine (Funk, Soul, HipHop…) ainsi que les musiques africaines. C’est donc logiquement qu’ils se sont retrouvés autour d’un support qu’ils affectionnent, le vinyle, et un espace géographique qui leur parle, le Maghreb. Leur objectif est simple: valoriser un patrimoine, (re) découvrir des oeuvres et satisfaire ainsi les oreilles curieuses ou amatrices du genre.
