"Kindir Surprise speaks of an identity distress, the distress that for many years prevented me from finding my place in my own person, the true Me. Then, i took a trip to Morocco in 2005, after 12 years without returning..."

"I was 28 years old, and about to rediscover a part of myself. The music, ever-present, spoke to me. The same music that used to leave me indifferent as a teenager in France, enamored with Hip Hop, funk, soul... and rejecting my parents' music, trying to create my own identity..."

"Walking through the aisles of the flea markets of Derb Ghallef, in Casablanca, I came across a box of about a hundred 60s-70s popular music 45 rpm records. When I asked for the price, the old man said, "Those are garbage, you won't do anything with them, take them for 0.5 dirhams each." I didn't hesitate."

"His voice still echoes in my head, as if he had thrown me a challenge... while offending our heritage. Thus was born the addiction, going to Morocco to feel that part of me, talking with the elders of my family before their final departure, and collecting all the records I could before they disappeared... it was like saving a part of myself by playing with time."

"The trips became more and more frequent, by motorcycle to slip through better, to appreciate the natural splendors, to be alone with myself..."

"When the Covid lockdown happened, and I found myself isolated with my family, I eventually decided to tackle this idea that has been lingering in my mind. The task seemed enormous and I had no idea what I wanted to do or how. Until then, I had only played some of these vinyl records at targeted events... but I wanted to do more, I wanted to merge with that part of my identity that I had materialized in these records."

"This is how Siba Sawt System, the anarchy of my inner self, was born, blending both my Western and Moroccan heritages with my musical culture. It has been my therapy, and I can never thank that old man enough for unknowingly throwing me the challenge of meeting my own self... That's where the surprise solution was... And how I can finally introduce myself completely.  

"The sampled lyrics metaphorically illustrate this distress and lack of self-love:
Kindir wezman yaghder / How to do: time deceived me
kindir 3ite man sber / How to do: I can't wait anymore
kindir Lmehboub ynfar / How to do: a singular love
kindir khoya t9her / How to do: my brother, I am defeated
Wa kindir guelbi tedmer / How to do: my heart cries"

"Then, they metaphorically takes on its full meaning.
la fjbel wa lma3loum / when the stakes are high
wla fchta lil dafi / no room for doubt
Ila fl3dou 9alb mrhoum / because a wounded heart
la fi chmayt 3ahd wafi / cannot beat fully"

"Ya 9elby n’kwik b’narr, ila bredti n’zidek / I’ll warm my heart up with this and make sure to never forget"

I have revisited my first ever production that launched my production career.  I have been playing it at gigs since early this year with big and humbling reaction.  Happy to share this now and say THANK YOU for the many years of support from long time listeners and to the newer ones too.

The first track of mine to reach commercial release, "...For All The People" circa 1994-ish.  I met my Fade partner Neil Kolo in 1993, even though i had seen him roaming the dancefloor at AAHZ (and surfing local breaks)during the years before, we never met.  Our connection was instant and we started pursuing our passion in bedroom studio.  We had made a handful of tracks before this, but this is the one that caught attention and made more traction then before.  It wasn't until Icey heard me play it out at gig that we knew we had something above the norm.  He encouraged us to press it to vinyl....  

FADE was formed in the summer of 1993 when Neil Kolo, a young studio engineer, introduced himself to Chris Fortier, a young resident DJ at the now infamous "Marz" club in Cocoa Beach, FL, and passed on a tape of some of the material he had been working on. Chris, very enthused by what he had heard, expressed his interest in the idea of working together and learning about how to produce tracks of his own like the ones he had been playing up and down the East Coast of America.

The Lyon imprint @hardfist strikes again with the collaborative Princes of Abzu EP, federating producers hailing from multiple horizons. 

A hedonist move, caring more about vibes and feelings than borders and nationalities. Referring to a mythological source that is the sea to every river, Princes of Abzu is a drop in a global culture expanding its currents to infinity.   

Producer and percussionist @shadi-khries is inspired by the desert, one place in particular : Wadi Rum, in his home country Jordan. He mixes traditional instruments like semsemeh (which gives its name to the track) bouzouki and oud, with electronic acid textures that makes it perfect for the club.
