Hear new Donato Dozzy remix

Up next on Adiel’s Danza Tribale label is the legendary Progetto Tribale project, this time featuring Donato Dozzy.

Progetto Tribale was born in 1992 under the mentorship of Giancarlino, and executed by a team that included Pietro Micioni, Paolo Micioni, D.RaD (a.k.a Stefano Facchielli), and Giancarlino himself. Based on a deep combination of African rhythms and soul music, Progetto Tribale gained great success, particularly with “Behaviour.”  Volume 6, the project’s last release, came over 24 years ago.

In partnership with two of the original members, Pietro and Paolo Micioni, Dozzy has reignited Progetto Tribale. Volume 7 features three original productions with Dozzy, real name Donato Scaramuzzi, plus a modern interpretation of “Behaviour” by Dozzy and Pietro Micioni.

Listen to Behaviour (Donato Dozzy & Pietro Micioni remix) below

Danza Tribale will release Volume 7 on July 30th, 2020.

Jneiro Jarel announces new album After A Thousand Years

In 2018 Far Out Recordings signed a record deal with Brooklyn born, nomadic producer Jneiro Jarel. Having just put the finishing touches to the recordings, Jarel suffered an ischemic stroke while living and working in Costa Rica and his wife Indigo was forced to set up a crowd fund to cover special medical transport back to the states to receive treatment. The release was put on hold, but thanks to the generosity of friends and fans around the world, Jarel was able to get the care he needed and is now on the long road to recovery. We’re overjoyed to finally announce Jneiro Jarel’s After A Thousand Years is now set for a October 2020 release.

Listen to Banana Peel below.

Throughout a career that has spanned over twenty years and seen collaborations with MF DOOM, Thom Yorke, Damon Albarn, BadBadNotGood, Portishead’s Beth Gibbons, Kimbra and Khujo Goodie (Dungeon Family), Jneiro Jarel’s consistently distinctive, forward thinking productions, as well as his love for the music of Brazil, made his partnership with Far Out a perfect fit.

Recorded between New York, New Orleans, Miami and Costa Rica, Jarel’s forthcoming album After A Thousand Years features legendary multi-instrumentalist Bill Summers, famed for his work with Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones and Eddie Henderson. The album also features Malawian-American guitarist Masauko Chipembere who has worked with the likes of RZA from Wu-Tang Clan and Ladybug Mecca from Digable Planets.

On lead single “Banana Peel”, Jarel’s outernational perspective makes for a track that is almost impossible to place geographically: you can hear the swing of Jarel’s native New Orleans jazz, the vibrance of Costa Rican rainforests as well as the influence of Jarel’s vast collection of Brazilian records.

Far Out Recordings will release After a Thousand Years on October 30th, 2020

Jeff Mills, Eddie Fowlkes and Jessica Care Moore go public as The Beneficiaries

The Crystal City Is Alive is released on 24 July by Axis Records .

We recognize Jeff Mills and Eddie Fowlkes as two of the originators and progenitors of Detroit Techno, and as artists who’ve sustained a near 40 year practice as prolific keepers of the Motor-City’s culture-advancing  musical flame. Jessica Care Moore is an internationally renowned poet, publisher, band leader, multimedia event impresario and recording artist. She returned to her hometown nearly a decade after long stints in Atlanta and New York, where she first gained acclaim  as a multiple time winner of The legendary Apollo Theatre’s legendary and uber-competitive Amateur Night. The poet’s sermonic delivery of her lyrical tapestries on The Beneficiaries brings the rich, prophetic and radical political vein of African American Freedom movement poetics into Techno in ways not heard so overtly, militantly or evangelically before.

Mills, Fowlkes and Moore are beneficiaries of Black Detroits multi-dimensional legacies of self-sufficiency and sonic futurism. They represent a triumvirate  of diversity haling from within Detroit’s creative omniverse, assembling to lay down a crossroads of their own conjuring and coordinates.

Tracklisting:

A. Metallic Stars
B. People
C1. Star Children of Orion
C2. When The Sun Loves You Back
D1. The X
D2. The Crystal City is Alive

Stream the latest LP by Skudge

Samo DJ and Daniel Andréasson appear on the album, due out June 26th.

“There’s an empty elegance to Time Tracks, a techno album that glides along with ball-bearing smoothness, allowing all thought to evaporate as you tune into the infinite. This is Stockholm artist Elias Landberg’s second LP as Skudge (previously a duo) and over the past decade he has polished his 1990s-inspired hardware sound to a shine, blasting out the grit and grime that characterised his early records and thus chiming with the current preference for clean-cut tones. There’s no stand-out among the ten tracks but the titles of “Ifach” nods the one his influence: the 90’s minimal label run by Baby Ford”. – The Wire Magazine

Stream Time Tracks on Spotify.

Skudge Records will release Time Tracks on June 26th, 2020.
