ZENA

Inspiriert von Ethio-Jazz und amharischer Tradition schlägt das Duo ZENA eine Brücke zwischen Jazz, Folk und Beatmaking und verleiht dem Ganzen eine zeitgenössische Londoner Note – rau, soulful und synthetisch, während es eine reiche musikalische Tradition selbstbewusst neu interpretiert.

Upsammy & Valentina Magaletti

Their album Seismo transforms the architecture of a museum into a constantly shifting web of bleeps, pads, field recordings, and inventive percussion—at once dense and airy, and in constant motion.

Opek

Opek’s third album, Trafo, blends hazy hip-hop grooves with deep jazz, drawing inspiration from Japan, Brazil, and the USA. At once laid-back and hard-hitting, it is tailor-made for basement clubs and rhythmic head-nodding.
