“Their sound fuses Melbourne’s vibrant music energy with dangdut rhythms, gamelan percussion, and melodic keroncong folk styles. It’s the sort of sound that is perfect for fans of Khruangbin or Sababa 5”

.band blast back into orbit on new album ‘Aylar’ delivering a bold evolution on the psychedelic folk-meets-groove sound they established on their acclaimed debut album.

After two years of touring, this cohesive and reinvigorated band entered the studio with renewed purpose and closer musical bonds. ‘Aylar’ (Turkish for “moons” or “months”) showcases more ambitious arrangements, extended compositions, intricate harmonies, and unexpected twists, reflecting the band’s commitment to innovation and their passion for the original wave of Turkish psychedelic music.

The album opener, ‘Tisladi Mehmet Emmi’ serves as a gateway to their expanded sound. This reimagining of a traditional Türküler—a Turkish folk song by the prolific saz-playing singer-poet Aşık Ali Doğan—transforms it into a modern psychedelic funk masterpiece. Kluger’s saz and Mishali’s synths intertwine seamlessly, underpinned by Ariele Harrosh’s infectious basslines and Yaish’s dramatic drumming, all culminating in Rotem’s husky, emotive vocals. Lyrically, the track narrates two elderly men lamenting the state of the world—a timeless theme.

With their hypnotising minimal sound, La Chooma invite listeners to immerse themselves in a psychedelic musical landscape. The release includes a club-friendly yet faithful remix from .

“Magic Plant” encapsulates La Chooma’s signature sound, weaving hypnotic grooves and woozy synths, as if concocted by Jimi Tenor in the Colombian Amazon after a heavy dose of ancient plant-based medicine. The listener is led along a dreamlike journey, where dubby, organic, rhythmic vibrations create an immersive experience. The seamless blend of instrumentation, organic percussion to cosmic synthesisers — creates a lush, dynamic soundscape that invites repeated listening,

Ethio-jazz pioneer joins the , Tel Aviv’s number one Afro funk collective, melding his enchanting vibraphone playing with their brass heavy force across seven original compositions.

Initially drawn to and trained in jazz and Latin music, Mulatu Astatke developed the sound he called “Ethio-jazz” over a series of seminal albums combining jazz, Latin, funk and soul, with traditional Ethiopian scales and rhythms.

Formed in 2012 on the south side of Tel Aviv, the 12 member Hoodna Orchestra is a collective of musicians and composers who initially bonded over a shared love of Afrobeat. Over time, members of the orchestra came to find they shared a growing interest in Ethiopian music, and were looking to find ways to collaborate with the pioneer himself. In early 2023 the opportunity arose to invite Astatke to Tel Aviv, record an album and perform it live for their home audience. Stars aligned as Neal Sugarman, multi-instrumentalist member of the Dap-Kings and co-founder of Daptone Records, joined and produced the session with Smilan.

Together they have created an essential addition to Mulatu’s rich discography that charts new directions in his Ethio-jazz trajectory and provides the Hoodna Orchestra with their strongest album to date.

“Bitter Moon” is the second single to emerge from the collaboration between Middle Eastern funk specialists and singer-songwriter .

Sababa 5, following a string of acclaimed instrumental releases exploring the intersection of traditional and popular Middle Eastern music, psychedelic rock, funk and
disco, and after successful collaborations with vocalists Shiran Tzfira and Yurika Hanashima, recently teamed up with Inbal Nur Dekel. A rising star in the Tel Aviv scene, Inbal has built her reputation by specialising in rebetiko, a Greek genre with Middle Eastern influences traditionally sung and danced to by the urban working class, while also fronting the popular ensemble, Yanookis taverna

With such evident chemistry, “Bitter Moon” is bound to capture hearts, minds, and hips, and promises much more from this collaboration.

Ethio-jazz pioneer joins the , Tel Aviv’s number one Afro funk collective, melding his enchanting vibraphone playing with their brass heavy force across six original compositions that play tribute to the classic Mulatu sound while forging fresh paths. Produced by and featuring Dap-King Neal Sugarman, the results are gritty, yet majestic, soulful and uplifting.

The album closes fittingly with “Dung Gate”. A Birenbaum composition, the track features slow, heavy, melodic motif led by the brass section, counterbalanced by a tidal wave of percussion and hand-clapping. One can imagine the band slowly marching out of the venue through the crowd at the end of their show, the audience clapping in time with the orchestra’s brass and percussion, recalling another legend, the late great Sun Ra.

London has a bright new Brazilian talent in town, MOMO. Influenced by Brazilian classics like Tropicália and Milton Nascimento, his latest release, “Gira” is out now! The double LP, recorded with a mix of Brazilian and London-based musicians at the iconic , swings effortlessly, led by MOMO.’s soft yet familiar vocals and ruminative brass twists.

The album’s contributors, from saxophonist to percussionist , bring vibrant touches, while MOMO.’s longtime collaborator Wado co-wrote lyrics for several tracks. Featuring a pleather of London musicians, including and , “Gira” skilfully mixes the Cathy tones of Brazilian traditional grooves with London high energy jazz, capturing the joyful spirit of collaboration and improvisation that MOMO. now embraces.

Bandcamp Weekly, hosted by , features “Pára” as the first track!

Gira is seventh album yet his first recorded in London. After a musical odyssey that took him from his home of Rio de Janeiro to Angola, Michigan, Chicago, Spain and Lisbon, MOMO. now calls London his home, where he lives with his young family, and whose creative spirit has inspired him for the last three years. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the new album marks a real departure.

The delicious album opener and second single is “Pára” and features the spacey, soulful jazz-grooves of keyboard player , amongst other great musicians such as saxophonist and cellist .

Big thank you to Jaques Denis and the team at for the lovely feature of Mamman Sani & “Nijerusalem” ✨

In 2013, Nigerian Mamann Sani caused a sensation with a cassette on Sahel Sounds, revealing a soundtrack cobbled together in the late 70s on an electronic organ, in keeping with the new-age moods of the time, and saying that electronic music wasn’t the prerogative of the West.

Eleven years later, he’s back with Berlin’s Tro-pikal Camel. The zeitgeist hasn’t quite changed, and this union is sealed around the same taste for minimalism, with the difference that Sahelian music remains the clearly audible thread in the story, to which the younger man can add his infrabass and beats without erasing its radiant beauty. It’s enough to meditate for an hour on the potential benefits of North-South dialogue.
