Extra-Infos: .. Astro-nubian Electronic Jaglara Dance Sounds From Th
Description:Synthesized Sudan: Astro-Nubian Electronic Jaglara Dance Sounds From The Fashaga Underground by Jantra, released 30 June 2023. This version of Synthesized Sudan: Astro-Nubian Electronic Jaglara Dance Sounds From The Fashaga Underground comes as a 1xLP. The vinyl is pressed as a opaque disc. - .. ASTRO-NUBIAN ELECTRONIC JAGLARA DANCE SOUNDS FROM TH
The first ever release of electronic Jaglara, an obscure dance music being innovated in an area near the Sudan, Ethiopia, and Eritrea border called Fashaga. Among the most raucous, hypnotic, addictive, and celestial dance styles being made anywhere in Africa, this heavy, mysterious sound is being led by one man: Jantra, which translates as "craziness," a moniker bestowed to celebrate both his personality and sound. Jantra is a rather unknown quantity even in Sudan, outside of the circles which have granted him cult status to perform at their humble gatherings or at street parties far from the gaze of the cities. Jaglara, which roughly translates as improvisation, has no songs. Jantra simply freestyles a combination of his melodies incessantly for hours on end, acting as a live producer and DJ for emphatic crowds, where the energy of his 155 - 168 BPM music is known to inspire the odd gunslinger to raise and fire his pistol in the middle of the dance floor. His music is hopeful in a hopeless world, uplifting in spirit, ancient and new, childish and mature, familiar yet refreshingly obscure, fueled by the hypnotic Sera rhythm. His Yamaha keyboard is specially tweaked to achieve what you're hearing - the perfect, sweet key tone, literally universal in it's appeal. A hybrid reissue-contemporary album, Ostinato combined extracted individual melodic patterns, rhythms, and MIDI data from Jantra's Yamaha keyboard with his older cassette and digital recordings to recreate his lengthy sessions into individual dance tracks for a worldwide audience to reach the enviable frenzy of Sudanese crowds. This promising new dance music emerging from the deepest reaches of Sudan has never made it's way outside of Jantra's parties, let alone outside of the country. This record is confirmation that the many electronic styles being exported from Africa have a worthy sibling and rival-Jantra's signature electronic Jaglara from the Fashaga underground. It is a privilege of the highest order to be exposed to this unheralded, incredibly well kept rural Sudanese secret.
"Synthesized Sudan: Astro-Nubian Electronic Jaglara" is a groundbreaking LP by Jantra, released under the esteemed Ostinato Records label. This album transports listeners to the heart of Sudan?s vibrant music scene, blending traditional Nubian rhythms with futuristic electronic sounds. Jantra, an innovative producer and musician from northern Sudan, has gained international recognition for his unique approach to synthesizing local melodies with modern beats. His energetic performances and viral tracks have made him a key figure in East African electronic music. Ostinato Records is renowned for its dedication to uncovering rare musical gems from Africa and beyond, consistently delivering high-quality releases that celebrate cultural diversity and sonic exploration.
