BHM 2024 - we are thrilled to have femdelic as our second guest.

Ich bin Marisa, in Dresden geboren, 89‘ nach Berlin gekommen und dort aufgewachsen. Die Faszination für Musik und Vinyl habe ich von meinem Papa. Er hat eine große Leidenschaft für Musik und sich mit dem Auflegen etwas Geld dazuverdient. Er hat mich oft mitgenommen in die Musikgeschäfte nach West Berlin wo er stundenlang in verschiedene Scheiben reingehört hat. Mein Vater der aus Kongo nach Deutschland immigriert ist, hat viel Reggae,aber auch Funk, RnB und Popmusik gediggt. Meine ersten Platten habe ich von ihm Mich hat vor allem Funk und Hip Hop interessiert. Letztendlich bin ich durchs Breaken’ in die Musik reingerutscht das lief mehr oder weniger lange parallel. Vor 10 Jahren ging es dann eigentlich erst fokussierter los, 2014 habe ich Warm-up für George Clinton gespielt mit meinem DJ Team ‚the Brides‘. Ich habe regelmäßig Mixtapes für meine Soundcloud Page gemacht und auch eigene Veranstaltungen in Berlin. Seitdem ich nicht mehr Tanze, bleibt noch mehr Zeit für die Musik :)

I'm Marisa, born in Dresden, moved to Berlin in 89' and grew up there. I got my fascination for music and vinyl from my dad. He has a great passion for music and was earning some extra money by DJing. He often took me with him to the music stores in West Berlin where he listened to various records for hours. He digged a lot of reggae, but also funk, RnB and pop music. I got my first records from him. I was particularly interested in funk and hip hop. Ultimately I slipped into the music through breaking and it ran parallel to each other more or less for a long time. Things actually started slowly 10 years ago, when I played a warm up gig with my former DJ Team ‘the Brides’ for George Clinton.I made regular mixes for my Soundcloud and had also my own events.

(gedanken zum Blackhistorymonth) : Ich arbeite mit Kindern, den BHM gibt es wohl schon seit ich ein Kind war. Allerdings ist davon nicht viel zu mir durchgedrungen. Meine Eltern waren mit anderen Dingen beschäftig, Studieren und Geld verdienen, um meine Schwester und mich zu ernähren. Ich hätte mir gewünscht, dass mir jemand mehr erzählt, zu unserer Geschichte, ich hätte mir Austausch und Begegnungen mit mehr Schwestern und Brüdern gewünscht, die so sind wie ich.Auf meiner Grundschule gab es keine BiPoC und auch auf meiner Oberschule war ich lange die einzige. Ich bin froh über die Initiative und Entwicklung der letztens 34Jahre. Heute gibt Orte, Events und Schwarze Geschichten auch außerhalb des BHM!

BHM 2024 - Femdelic " Black is so much more, black is nothing less"

Quatorze recordings is back with a stellar delicious compilation entitled "Mango Smoothy".

The perfect tracks for an endless summer breeze, salty textures, shiny & well tanned, hitting that sweet spot between uplifting, dreamy & euphoric grooves.

Title track "Mango smoothy" delivers a long consistent almost non evolving intro, until the surprise of funky melodic riffs & pads swell into Trumpets & Saxophones expressing an endless dance in pure simplicity & precise musicianship.

"Surf your eyes" eludes to dreamy pads & a Bass-line tied to those morning after-hours, when dancers are purely relying on the groove's persistence into the sunrise, in order to soak the sun & go directly surfing.

"Red Flip" The switch to wake up into full euphoria, but with a nostalgic romantic melancholy, driving lucid textures & a stunning melodic journey from the beginning to the end while emphasising the signature Low frequencies to uplift the dance.

"Back to it" The deepest track in the Ep, pure ear candy for deep house lovers, & a full satiating meal for the lovers of Sam's signature sound.

"Trip to Zanzibar" Closing B side, calmly wrapping up the album, through jazzy minimalistic pads, & the state of art simplicity of percussive elements.

The release is exclusively only available on Bandcamp & Soundcloud.
