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.

yeelen is a brand new project forged in the heart of a forgotten past. joe drive, of lux rec fame, and maurizio martinucci aka tez aka pragma have joined forces to sculpt, in their own words, -sonic constructions that transcend the canons of electronic music.- a bold statement, but then again this is a pretty bold ep. -techno tribalism and ritualistic soundscapes- are the bedrock from which this partnership cultivate their sound. figures and forms of a bygone time are conjured through intoxicating drum patterns, lost lands of dense jungle and windswept hills summoned through loops and samples to ensnare and entrance. polytheism explored through the prism of a polyphonic synth, mysticism born from machine drums, -ethnosonology of the future.-

aufgewachsen in london mit jungle, grime und broken beats, ist der jazz-ansatz von yussef dayes und kamaal williams (aka henry wu) geprägt durch den basssound der piratensender, ähnlich wie die us-kollegen robert glasper oder kamasi washington hiphop in ihre musik einfliessen lassen. weitere inspirationen auf dem yussef kamaals debütalbum ist der freiheitliche anything-goes-spirit des 1970 er jazzfunk eines herbie hancock oder mahavishnu orchestra, während ihr pianospiel an thelonious monk und ihr drumprogramming an kaidi tatham angelehnt ist.

das könnte leicht schnulzig oder sogar esoterisch wirken. der fakt, dass dem nicht so ist, ist die große stärke von patrick o laoghaire aka i have a tribe. mit seinen gefühlen im reinen zu sein und diese durch die musik auszudrücken. nicht einfach einem trend folgen oder mit einfachen musiktheoretischen strukturen radio-hit-singles produzieren. wie schon davor, lassen die songs auf diesem album viel platz für patrick’s stimme, manchmal kann man sogar den parkett boden unter den füßen knarzen hören. seine interpretation des instruments ist hoch innovativ, er lockt melodien hervor und produziert unprätentiöse rhythmen. vermittelt seine beobachtungen, gedanken und emotionen auf zwei ebenen. das klavier und seine stimme sind die eckpfeiler von “beneath a yellow moon”, und patrick ist von beidem ein meister.

lessizmore continues with a striking fresh release from its new darker serie noire imprint. kane roth is working towards a mix of psycho-reactive minimal techno while tim xavier redefines kama sutra with playful bass lines.
kane s kama sutra is focused on a melodic audion-like gimmick. the track is remarkable by the use of typically pitched down vocals and massive kicks, it viciously hooks the listener.
yearning begins with strange and dark sounds but after three minutes holds the line with simple yet magnificent synth layers. in this track, kane is close to robag wruhme s delicate vision of techno music.
the remix of kama sutra constantly thumbs our nose at. tim xavier arrangements are mapped out with calculated intent, he pushes the track into a brilliant fun and never-ending roller coaster.
