About this journey :
It's a real pleasure to be invited by Comsovision Records. Thanks a lot.
How does one interpret "Tradiciones", the theme of the series ? In its first sense, tradition is the (collective) memory of what has been and must be transmitted and enriched. History, culture, music. Sharing allows for rememberance. Tradition and transmission become one. My particular history with Senegal naturally turns me towards this country. And my love for Cape Verde makes me want to take you there too. Geographical proximity, bilateral diaspora, common history. And, on both sides, a music to stir your guts. So I dug in the bottom of my (cooking) pot to extract some records from the 70s and 80s. 
Hoping to make you discover some of them... and want to taste more.
To the sound of percussions, the journey begins in the forest of Casamance. It continues in the River Valley, around baobabs of the Serer country, in the streets of Thies, up to the port of Dakar. Latin rhythms mingle with those of the sabar, the energy of the tama collides with the praise of the griots. The voices of Laba Sosseh and Pape Seck flirt with those of Youssou Ndour and Omar Pene. Salsa and mbalax become one.
Fonseca (of Senegalese mother and Cape Verdean father) then invites us to raise the anchor. We leave the land, we take the sea. Islands under the wind meet Islands in the wind. From the volcano of Fogo to the bay of Mindelo, calm follows the storm, joy unites with sadness. Guided by the cadences of coladeira, tabanka, funana, cumbia. Lulled by the songs of Bana and Cesaria. Fatteliku (memory) and sodade (nostalgia) become one.

About @xogn:
My musical culture swings somewhere between Brussels and Dakar. I spent 10 years in Senegal. There I run a music shop, co-organised the monthly "Koulgraoul" parties and co-hosted radio shows. Step by step, African music has become a real passion. Back in Belgium, I specialized in records sale, being dj regularly for African and Tropical parties. And I really enjoy mixing at Kiosk Radio every month! By the way, "XOGN" comes from Wolof (Senegalese language). That's what we call grilled rice. So, it means "cooking-pot bottom" ("Fond de marmite")...where my spicy records come from!

Tradici๏nes ★ 07 | XOGN | Ritmos y recuerdos de nuestras tierras

Drifting - a movement with no certain direction… As a drifter you may move with ease and a calm mind, or you may find yourself on a mystical journey into the unknown, you’re never quite sure... These feelings of uncertainty have inspired our dear friend Kyle, aka @captures, when he began working on this EP three years ago. At that time his journeys had drawn him to Berlin where he found himself searching for a community to resonate with. With a bit of drifters fortune, we found each other here and there as the events and parties around Voodoohop and UCR brought him a sense of home: „Everyone seemed like wild characters in a play on some type of exotic underground that created a narrative free from boundaries. I loved the psychedelic atmosphere those days combined with electronic and world music sounds. Those experiences contributed a lot to this album and to who I am today.“

We’re pleased that our communities have provided inspiration that has led us to work with Captures on releasing this beautiful soundtrack. A soundtrack for all the drifters out there.

May this EP be seen as a dedication to not only the weightless feeling of floating but also to carry confidence and optimism on our paths to explore the great unknown. As Confucius said, „The journey is the destination“.

It was late last year that M.RUX’s In The Hold EP saw the light of day, released on YNFND. The cult label now returns with six hand-crafted remixes. 

Entrusted with the task of adding their own touch to his inimitable sound, M.RUX has assembled an enviable troupe of friends and lovers from all corners of the globe. There are appearances by Brazil’s Pigmalião, San Francisco-based producer Nonagon, the irish globetrotter Peter Power, Ninze from Germany and the pan-Atlantic producer-duo History of Colour featuring El Buhó and Barrio Lindo.
