2016 fand in santiago de cuba das manana festival statt. es führte zu einem intensiven dialog zwischen vertretern regional-karibischer musiktraditionen und internationalen independent-künstlern aus dem spannungsfeld von dance, avantgarde und jazz. mit der gründung des labels manana wurden vor ort geknüpfte fäden aufgenommen und weitergesponnen. daraus resultierten bereits zwei außergewöhnliche tonträger. -soundspecies & ache meyi- ist der dritte dieser reihe, er fusioniert auf aufsehenerregende weise folk aus kuba mit britischer elektronik. hinter soundspecies verbergen sich zwei als djs und produzenten aktive brüder aus dem englischen dorset. in ihrer musik loten sie die verbindungen zwischen den klängen und formen elektronischer tanzmusik einerseits und den repetitiven mustern von traditionellem folk andererseits aus. die formation ache meyi hat sich hingegen afro-haitianischen rhythmen und stilen wie bembe, vodu, gaga und merengue verschrieben. und das auf eine ziemlich dynamische weise, was angesichts des bandnamens wenig überrascht. die yoruba-begriffe -ache- und -meyi- bedeuten so viel doppelte power.

“running through with the sadness” represents hungry march band’s first full-length studio album in over a decade, and their first pressed to vinyl. the record is an explosion of irreverent energy and a veritable lesson in spastic instrumental dance music. it was meticulously produced over the course of years, indicating a forward step in the evolution of the radical street brass sound.

the specter ep is another installment of viadrina s broad interest in contemporary club aesthetics. blob is a vibrant house jam, while specter moves towards darker, trancey sounds. different but marked with duo s significant production skills the ep sums up 5 years of their career very, very well. it comes with two interesting remixes, one from kixnare - a real soulful producer and the other from enigmatic and austere venice calypso

yoruba records is proud to add glasgows vince watson to the family with his first release on the label. the techno heavyweight who has seen releases on planet e and poker flat, as well as his own bio imprint has departed from his previous work in this wonderfully crafted ep, which opens with the brilliantly ambient tune: a moment with lonnie. the more club friendly eminesence begins with a punchy, rolling bass line and then opens up with a hypnotic sweeping piano melody. the mid-track radiant breakdown is sure to capture the listener’s attention before coming full circle into a head-bob-inducing bass line driven groove. from there, the journey continues with the tribal-esque calypso, a melodic groove sure to get the floor moving. with its subtle keys and well-positioned claps this tune a friend of dance floors and home stereo systems alike. the release closes with under the skin, a well thought out afterhours track sure to bring any night to a smooth conclusion.

this new album features the music of calypso in its many styles. included is music from its birthplace - the island of trinidad - as well as a number of other caribbean islands (including jamaica and the bahamas) and its subsequent onwards journey (britain, panama and the united states), recorded during the years 1955-69.

nice price deal !!! keith thompson-living on the frontline

having co-compiled two albums, the real sound of chicago and the real sound of chicago and beyond for bbe, dj and producer mark grusane steps out of the shadows to present the real sound of mark grusane.
a highly personal selection of modern soul, disco and a little touch of boogie, these rare tracks have all been respectfully edited, chopped up or extended by mark himself. apart from the odd private vinyl pressing, or occasionally handing an edit over to close friends and djs such as fellow bbe artist sadar bahar, mark has never before made these tracks available (despite the throng of people waiting around to ask each time he finishes a set).

wit, wisdom and soul from the king of calypson 1960 - 1976!
