Danay catch-ed my moment, really, her voice, how fly!
Danay was discovered by Giles Peterson when he travelled to Cuba to find unknown artists. She is mid twenties and from Havana.

She takes part of the Gilles Peterson project Havana Cultura.

Havana Cultura is a collaboration between Gilles Peterson and cuban unknow talented artists.  The Havana Cultura CD is actually two CDs. The first disc contains the 12 original tracks Gilles recorded with his hand-picked “Havana Cultura Band,” led by pianist Roberto Fonseca. The CD features some outstanding guest appearances from Mayra Caridad Valdés, Ogguere, Danay, Francis Del Rio and Obsesión.

The second disc is a compilation of 16 previously released and unreleased tracks, drawing from more top Cuban talent: Los Aldéanos, Telmary, Yusa, Kelvis Ochoa, Doble Filo, Descemer Bueno, Gente de Zona, Harold Lopez Nussa, Kumar, Free Hole Negro, Cubanito 20.02, Wichy de Vedado and Tony Rodriguez. The CD packaging was designed by Alexandre Arrechea, one of Cuba’s brightest art stars.

DANAY / Danay’s interview

This is what Gilles say about her:
A remarkable new voice whom I met whilst interviewing artists for my BBC Radio 1 documentary. She played me some of her original songs and I immediately knew that she had to take part in this project. Lagrimas de
Soledad was the song from her demo’s that I loved the most and it is on this
where her work with Roberto is the most magical moment of the album.

CD 1 – Lagrimas de soledad (No existen palabras) / Lagrimas de soledad

As we all know, or not know, Doom is touring in Europe coming weeks.

Finally he is coming.   I discovered Doom 8 years ago and really enjoy listening his music.  He catched my moment several times.

He s coming to Belgium too.  Alex Deforce from On Point Tv made the artwork for the show in Brussels.

Who is Alex Deforce? 

He is a friend , an artist, a blogger, a dj,  …

A description of himself , taken from his Myspace page:

a.k.a. =lloyd= pointdexter, holdin’ it down at www.on-point.be

Filling my days with drawing, interviewing, dj’ing, reading, promoting (co-organised Locoflows Festival in 2005) and perfectioning my coffeetechniques (mind you, there’s different methods to a style!)

An unhealthy coffee addiction resulting in periods of insomnia, which in time combined with an uncompromising just-let-me-do-my-thing attitude gave birth to a trademark style.

Faces marked by the tension of modern day life, balancing on the tipping point between the grime of the city and the frivolous facade of metropolis.
Warm in their darkness, refined in their dirtiness.

We looooove Alex and his art! And the ‘On Point’  moments …

Oh and don’t forget to check his artwork!

Hindi Zahra brought me sunshine with her song Oursoul.  A song in Berber language.

As I am Berber too, we have the same roots, her song touched my in different ways.

Born in Khouribgha (Morocco), Touareg and Berber origin, Hindi Zahra strikes a vote without borders. Her music sounds like ancient blues, original jazz with some vibration from the Middle East, where she speaks about love, self-assertion, the world and things that inspire her. Born into a family of Berber artists , the Oudaden group  is one of the most famous of them. Her mother and uncles introduced her the traditional Gnawa music, the folk of Dylan, Marley’s reggae and the ancient rhythms and melodies of the finest Egyptian Directory. Self-taught musician, songwriter, Hindi is reflected in the plurality. The Wire describes her as the brainchild of Django Reinhardt and Billie Holiday. she occurred in the first part of Anis at Olympia, Oxmo Puccino at La Cigale where she participated in Bose Blue Note Jazz festival …

 Her song “Beautiful Tango” is a revelation—simple yet sophisticated, sparse yet emotive. It’s fresh even while it reverberates with history.  This style continues in “Oursoul” and “Try.” A touch of hip-hop and soul influence, retaining the simple, downbeat understatement of her other songs while adding an almost ethereal quality.  Somewhere between her Moroccan roots and her life in Paris, singer-songwriter Hindi Zahra lost track of her many musical influences: the result is a mesmerizing elemental folk, a desert blues with african/american music.

Don’t forget to check her website or myspace.

We loooooove Hindi Zahra. 

Enjoy this moment!

DYNOOO’s Gum Dragon is centered around Fuh Real, a
song that features Swedish singer Naboobia laying down a
floaty vocal over a high-end 80’s r&b inspired club banger.
It has already been remixed by Luigi (Jazzy Sport,
Infinitskills) and Comfort Fit, whose version appeared on
his latest full-length.

Gum Dragon sounds exactly as you’d imagine after
perceiving its hyperreal cover (designed by the man
himself): a refreshing collage of complex sound pieces and
colorful lo-fi. (Thank You Rub – Digsville Label)

We looooooooooooooooooove Dynooo.

I’ll be gone from KORB on Vimeo.

Truckers Delight animated video clip directed by newcomer wunderkid Jérémie Périn who takes the song’s title (a tribute to those little pleasures that the lonely truck- driver indulges himself in) and takes it to the next level. Think Spielberg’s Duel + Russ Meyer’s Faster Pussycat Kill Kill! and Marc Dorcel’s wildest fantasies. All warped into an 8-bit Sega era style graphic. And this clumsy and somehow pretentious description doesn’t even come close to what you’re about to see: it’s très funny,très dirty, -très sexy. Très Flairs indeed.

Funny video it is ,  Enjoy!
