Musical collisions in the Atlantic!
Sofrito kicks off the new Island Series with a celebration of the vital dancefloor sounds of Cape Verde – a mixture of local Funana and Coladeira rhythms, Batuque percussion and psychedelic disco synths.

Musical collisions in the Atlantic!
Sofrito kicks off the new Island Series with a celebration of the vital dancefloor sounds of Cape Verde – a mixture of local Funana and Coladeira rhythms, Batuque percussion and psychedelic disco synths.

Hailing from the island of Sao Vicente and originally released in the early 80s, Dionisio Maio’s anthemic Corpim Sabe is stretched into a 12” mix by the Alma Negra collective – bringing the thumping bassline to the fore and tweaking the piano-led groove into a slice of cosmic Coladeira-disco perfection.

On the flip the dynamic Hide & Smile duo (aka Frankie Francis & Miles Cleret) splice an early track from trailblazing Santiago-based group Bulimundo into a percussive workout that prefigures the sounds of Kuduro and Coupé Decalé.
Os Kings (from the island of Sao Vicente) complete the EP with an ode to struggling youth, anchored by sweet guitars and a slick bassline.

Fact fans:
The Republic of Cape Verde is an island chain situated 500 km off the coast of Senegal. Uninhabited before Portuguese colonization in the 15th century, the country was a staging post for the transatlantic slave trade and occupies a unique cultural position between Africa, Europe and the Caribbean.
There are large Cape Verdean communities in Paris, Lisbon, Rotterdam and Boston and as a result the music of the French Caribbean (in particualr zouk) is extremely influential.
Extra fact:
One of the most popular drinks in Cape Verde is a pint of gin and tonic.

Inspirado en los ritmos Yoruba y la multiculturalidad sonora, Waxuma compone en un proceso casi ritual, en un espacio y tiempo desapegado de lo cotidiano, entrando a su propio inconsciente. Se encuentran instinto más conocimiento hasta que florece la idea.

From the self-titled album 'Pat Thomas & Kwashibu Area Band,' out June 15th on Strut.

iTunes: http://geni.us/PatThomasKwashibu
Amazon: http://geni.us/PatThomasAreaAMZ
Strut Store: http://bit.ly/PatThomasStrut

From the album liner notes:
An “Africo” crossover style typical of early 1970s Accra in the style of Osibisa and Alhaji K Frimpong. It's one of the most funky tracks on the album and features some superb harmonic and melodic touches. Thomas's lyrics are defiant: “This is my life, my turn. You can talk about all my problems and dance in my misery. But it's not going to be like that forever. You can talk all you want but things will always get better for me.”

The track features a yearning trumpet solo from another Ghanaian legend, Osei Tutu. Osei was a member of Hedzolleh Sounds and also played alongside Ebo and Pat in the Sweet Beans.

We sojourn once more outside South Africa to bring you one of the more significant recordings of Angola by Teta Lando, which was issued shortly after independence.

"1961 marks the year of the start of the struggle against colonial oppression. The people's desire for freedom spread through the countryside like bushfire. The grief and pain do not mean despair because the goal of independence was clear. This long play record launching CDA captures the chant and dress expression of an artist who is the voice of the people. The need to forget the harshness of the struggle and the joy of announcing victory is signalled. Teta Lando is devoted to the people, no-one better than he could sing Indepencencia." (translated from the original liner notes)

And from various sources on the web: Alberto Teta Lando (1948 – 2008) was born in Mbanza Congo, the capital city of Zaire Province in the north of the country. His music focused on Angolan identity, the country's civil war, the saudades (nostalgia, melancholy and longing) of Angolan exiles, as well as young love and family. He spoke and sung in both the Portuguese and Kikongo languages. Among his most well known songs were "Irmao ama teu irmao" ("Brother, Love Your Brother") and "Eu vou voltar" ("I Will Return"). He died in Paris, France, on 14 July 2008, after battling cancer. During the last several years of his life, he managed to re-unite a group of many Angolan musicians.

Rodrigo Gallardo - Minero (Xique-Xique Remix)

Berlin, December 2017 

I was still pregnant and we wanted explain to our lil baby NU why she was coming from the universe to earth. Winter… freezing cold night, playing piano with our four hands… PAPANU put in a song a lil brief about how we meet and how this love story begin, “en la playa en tulum”. We sing to each other the whole night, besides laughs of why we decide 3 in the morning crossing the flat with the piano!  One of the thousands funny adventures of mamanu and papanu.

Rebeca Kodaira & NU - MY FEEDS 
Yo te encontré 
En un rayo de sol 
En tus labios senti tu corazon 
Sonreíste a mi, y yo te corriendo 
Hasta la playa hasta el mar 
Fue caladito a adentrar en frio 

Soy un solo 
Caminando por todo 
Mis pernas en tuyas 
Mis ojos ven por nos
En tu corazón tengo mi lugar de Thor  
Nesta ilha vejo mi familia 
Para dar amor 


Fuiste mi sol, mi corazón, 
Fuiste mi alma, aliento 
Fuiste tu, Que me resgato 

En la playa y en tulum 
Me creastes en tu suenos 
Y yo voy estar contigo 
Hasta el fin del mundo 

Quando Vienes ? 

Thank you for exist in me
Thank for your patience and be 
Thank you for your love 
thank you for your kisses 
and your smiles and your hug, 
all open thinking 
it’s all in touch.


Berlin, 2018
