Показать описание

The much heralded and influential Body Language series returns with its highly
anticipated twenty-first instalment featuring Djuma Soundsystem. The compilation is
brimming with original productions by the extraordinary artist himself.
The experienced and acclaimed Norwegian artist is known for serving up magical
tribal grooves imbued with deep feelings and melodious rhythms. He has graced small
intimate clubs and bustling festival main stages alike with his warm vibes and has
released on this label as well as the likes of Rebirth, Crosstown Rebels, Zehn and Sol
Selectas. Djuma Soundsystem now returns to spoil his fans with a selection that
features seventeen unreleased productions from start to finish!
The tracks are a medley of curated productions featuring his favourite producers
offering re-rubs of his own older favourites, novel remixes by himself, and brand new
productions to top it off. He maintains a sharp-eyed focus on the tribal elements, often
inspired by African rhythms, that the Djuma name has become synonymous with over
recent years. On Body Language 21 he takes the series to the next level by hand
picking the true leaders of his genre to remix him, in a perfect blend with new and
upcoming talents, mainly from Africa, that he predicts to be the superstars of the
future.
Rey&Kjavik opens up the mix with a remix of Djuma Soundsystem’s modern classic
‘Koma Kobache’, setting the tone with sparse synths and hand drums. A Djuma
Soundsystem edit then picks up the groove with some warm, rumbling drums as the
mix stays deep and dubby early on. Enchanting lead synths are laid onto his Tribal
Dub of Robosonic and Kostakis & Mr Luu’s ‘Beatboxer' remix layers up the late night
and spiritual feelings with more majestic deep house. The mid-section gets you on
your toes with smooth transitions that introduces bigger chords and more upright
drums from the likes of rising Team Distant and Karyendasoul. Then comes Mezomo,
whose remix of Djuma’s ‘Parga’ is a bright and stirring centrepiece with its epic tribal
vocals, closely followed up by Armonica’s dark contribution to the project. Djuma’s
own edit of his track with Aki Bergen and Lazarusman builds the pressure with
bouncing and propulsive drums and a moving vocal that builds to a real ‘hands in the
air’ moment. Further tracks from the likes of Re.You, Los Cabra and a final
collaboration with Demian Muller ride things out in a real epic deep tribal style.
This mix is a widescreen musical journey that takes you deep into Djuma
Soundsystem’s sensitive and emotional percussion driven world.
