Benin City believe that dance is a form of protest.  Joshua Idehen, Tom Leaper and Shanaz Dorsett make dance-pop birthed in London, where they met, flavoured with their many influences (from Stromae to Sylvan Esso to Christine And The Queens).  

Their second album, Last Night (Moshi Moshi), was an ode to the city's declining nightlife and the many stories that take place on the dancefloor.  With support from the likes of Huw Stephens (BBC), John Kennedy (Radio X) and Tom Robinson, and a European support tour with Portugal. The Man under their belt, the Band acquired a diverse following of club-goers, indie lovers and pop fans alike. 

Setting topics like Windrush ('Hostiles’), identity ('What A Time') and cultural appropriation ('Get Your Own') against energetic beats, the trio steps into the new decade with new music that is as poignant as it is celebratory.

Multigenre music producer.

MALAKAI is the musical vision of Brooklyn based producer, DJ and multi-instrumentalist, Malakai Linden. Drawing on a wide range of influences, his music strives to bridge a gap between electronic and acoustic spaces, incorporating sounds of real-world instruments into an eclectic brand of bass driven electronic beats. Following a pattern of organic growth, MALAKAI’s live sets consist of a carefully curated and immersive journey through a multitude of musical flavors.

MALAKAI began producing in 2011 at the age of 17 under the guidance of acclaimed producer/guitarist Derek VanScoten (Cloudchord, D.V.S*) and went on to earn a degree in Music Technology from New York University. In 2017, he teamed up with Wyler Sanca and Francesco Ferran to form The Rust Music, a record label, blog and production company dedicated to showcasing forward-thinking music and art in NYC. 

Since his start, MALAKAI has shared stages with internationally renowned artists such as Emancipator, Desert Dwellers, Ott, Random Rab, Clozee, and Purity Ring, and appeared at numerous festivals across the northeast including Wild Woods Music (NH), Camp Bisco (PA), and Great North (ME).

Over the past year, MALAKAI has been featured on releases through Desert Trax (Antumbral Shadow - compiled by Desert Dwellers), and The Rust Music (Saros EP, Oxidized Vol. 2). Looking to the future there are a number of new projects on his plate, including several collaborations, singles and more to be released in 2018.

We are a record label and artists management company!
