After a journey through the cosmic desert, aJan is finally ready to release their mixtape "Opposite Side" to the world. Focused on their mission to rebrand the notoriously over generalized term "world music", aJan has been working relentlessly in the past year to collaborate with leading artist and labels to form this exceptional mixtape, synthesizing their rich musical heritage with accessible and modern music production. In addition to their original material, you can find UK's based rapper Afrikan Boy’s story about his DNA test in “Ancestry”, as well as remix versions of “Mabruk” and “Sukkar, Sukkar, Sukkar” by the late Ali Hassan Kuban, the Godfather of Nubian Funk.
