following up the entity crew’s first release comes another residents ep, with two tracks from shai spooner + jordan dessar and a stellar remix from mannheim’s finest, fabe.
staying true to their london-centric sound, tracks -balanced diversity- and -soul dub- are peppered with references to uk garage, breakbeat and house, further helping the young label establish their soundscape.
the release is topped off by fabe’s remix of -balanced diversity-, a rocket of a track primed for the dancefloor and set to be an anthem. the perfect icing on the cake for this second, really strong release from entity.
songs about the unity of sudan, peace between muslims and christians and the fate of war orphans, backed by grooves equally taking influence from arabic sounds, american funk as well as neighboring ethiopia. kamal keila was among the first artist we met in sudan during our two trips to khartoum and omdurman last year. he is one of the key figures of the sudanese jazz scene that was a vital part of the musical culture in sudan from the mid 1960s until the islamist revolution in the late 1980s. when we meet kamal he luckily presented us with two mold covered studio reels. each tape included five tracks. one with english lyrics and another with arabic ones. musically you can hear the influence of neighboring ethiopia much more than on other sudanese recordings of the time, as well as references to fela and american funk and soul. his lyrics, at least when he sings in english which gave him more freedom from censorship, are very political. a brave statement in the political climate of sudan of the last decades, preaching for the unity of sudan, peace between muslims and christians and singing the blues about the fate of war orphans called shmasha. a note inside one of the boxes specified the track titles, durations and the fact that the sessions were recorded on the 12th of august 1992. both sessions stand as a hearable testament how kamal keila stuck to a sound aesthetic from decades ago, while incorporating current events into his lyrics. kamal keilas album is the first in a series of releases covering the sudanese jazz scene on habibi funk. be on the lookout for albums by the scorpions and sharhabeel coming soon.

diese sammlung enthält eine auswahl der wichtigsten frühen werke, die mit ascend beginnt, dessen spacige dub-atmosphäre zu den versteckten ambient-dub-perlen der 1990er jahre gehört. vapor vervollständigt die a-seite mit seinem wortreichen ausflug in organische und räumliche dub-atmosphäre. auf der b-seite befindet sich die über 16-minütige ätherische odyssee windgate 11:11, die seit über 25 jahren zu den favoriten der fans gehört. der 22-minütige spitzentrack namens oberon (greymatter), der sich auf der c-seite ausbreitet, stammt von seiner debüt-ep realignment seines labels modulation elektronik aus dem jahr 1993. der vielleicht proto-technischste track auf diesem album ist ein paradebeispiel für die freie ausdrucksweise der damaligen zeit im ambient-dub. der letzte track, der hier vorgestellt wird, trägt den gleichen titel wie adham shaikhs meistverehrtes und beliebtestes album journey to the sun.
