naïma, an artist known for her captivating solo performances, seamlessly blends reggae, indie-soul, and jazz in her music. Following several successful singles and collaborations, she released her debut album «Roots» in December 2022, which received widespread acclaim in the media.
Siselabonga is a collaborative platform and creative vehicle brought to life by percussionist Fabio Meier. It was created with the intent to facilitate deep dialogue and intense sonic exchanges with other musicians, visual artists, and performers. By design, everything about the project is in flux: who takes the creative lead, the band configuration, and where the project decides to âpitch its tentâ at any given point in time. Some of the Siselabonga collaborators and family include: Nongoma Ndlovu, Fabio Meier and Louis Cesar Ewande. Siselabonga is a word created from the mash up of “si, câest bon” (French for âthatâs goodâ) and siyabonga (Zulu for âthank youâ). Last year Siselabonga dropped a new EP titled In Stone.
Turbolenta ÙÙÙÙ was born from the need to bring together and question different cultural identities within a single musical expression. Traditional North African and Arabic tunes take up space in the clubs. Turbolenta ÙÙÙÙ embarks on a narrative that speaks of the childhood of North Africans and Arabs, giving space to the present and accompanying us towards the future. The focal point for it is to bring to light the particularity of the genres it plays, but also to observe its similarities with the rest of the world.
