A
clubnight
held at The Jam Jar
on Saturday 18th January. The event starts at 23:00.
A club night of music from Africa and the diaspora, featuring the debut UK performance by afro-electronic innovators Siraba.
Twende and Wildtune bring afro-electronic innovators Siraba for their debut performance in the UK . Alongside a line up of some of Bristol and London’s best selectors spinning an array of global grooves and bass heavy stompers to get you moving and grooving.
Siraba
In the music of Siraba, Malian donso hunter Boubacar Samake’s Wassoulou vocals and ngoni rhythms collide with the electronic grooves of French electronic producer Damien Vandesande. The pair embrace their musical differences and similarities to create a unique sound full of melodic and rhythmic hooks that are immediately infectious and danceable. A musical conversation between the ngoni — the six-stringed instrument of the Malian hunter tribe — and a palette of drum machines and synthesizers, Siraba is the ancient sound of West Africa wrapped in a contemporary electronic soundscape.
Inda flo
DJ, radio host, and promoter, Inda Flo pulls up on the underground club scene to bend and blend cultural sounds in her stomping ground of global bass, percussive club, ethno-techno, electronic, and world. Her sets guarantee a bouncy energy that reach across waters and beyond borders of Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and the Caribbean. Expect to move and sweat to heavy basslines, relentless rhythms, and certified bangers accompanied by her signature sound of euphoric instrumentals ranging from brass, percussion, strings, wind, and vocal melodies.
Joeti
Both a DJ and producer, Joeti will provide an array of global bass stompers and percussive mayhem to satisfy your rhythmic needs.
Sojebeats
Hannah rarely sticks to one genre, so expect a tasteful mashup of wordly funk and a fusion of reggaeton, soca, jungle, samba, baile funk, techno; bhangra, dabke, afrobeats and more.
Ajayi
"If mediocre white men can do it, I can too!" Liz Ajayi plays a combination of music that she listened to, her mother did and her grandmother too. Music through the diaspora has been wholly centered around popular afrobeats, but there is so much more to discover. you will be embraced with the versatility of Nigerian artists through the decades and some other African countries might get some love too. But we all know Nigeria's the best!
There is gonna be a whole lot of amazing music so come down, shake a leg and make a friend or two.
Twende! xx
