Fast-rising pianist and producer Yoni Mayraz presents his debut LP ‘Dybbuk Tse!’ revealing the story of a malicious possession that is taking over one’s body and soul.Dybbuk, known from Jewish folklore, is a malevolent wandering spirit that enters and possesses the body of a living person. It’s a cursed soul of a dead one that wanders tirelessly for sins committed during their life. The most vulnerable victims are the young and the sinful. Possession can be taken literally or as an analogy to the burden that young people carry generations back, which they have no influence on, and which they have to accept. Dybbuk can only be removed by exorcism. The titular ‘Dybbuk Tse!’ is a command to remove the spirit from the possessed body. The album is a story about possession but also about exorcism through music.Recorded live with his band in a dusty wooden studio, ‘Dybbuk Tse!’ is indeed experimenting with the ‘darker side of things’, but yet with a somewhat lighthearted approach which is so typical of Yoni’s work. He easily combines jazz with the sound of 90’s New York hip hop and raw old school breakbeat. The album interweaves unique Middle Eastern melodies, sophisticated structures and sounds, and beautifully crafted solos played by some of the promising talents on the scene.London based Israeli born pianist and producer Yoni Mayraz has set foot in the instrumental music scene with his EP ‘Rough Cuts’ released in 2020. Since then, Yoni and his band have been playing major venues and festivals around the world including the legendary Ronnie Scott’s and The Jazz Cafe, to name a few, bringing raw energy to stage with live versions of the studio materials, and stretching the melodies and structures into a Dancefloor-focused take on jazz.‘Dybbuk Tse!’ album will be released by Astigmatic Records on LP in regular and limited (B1 poster included) editions, as well as on all streaming platforms.

Don Leisure's last album in 2017 was a real cult classic for hip hop and beat lovers. First World Records have finally got the follow up ready, and the much anticipated Shaboo Strikes Back does not leave anyone disappointed. It stretches out over 25 tracks and each one is a balmy and heady mix of fuzzy synths, wooden drum hits and smart samples that take in everything from serene strings to old soul vocals. It's a widescreen listen with loose tambourines dangled over gypsy funk synths on 'Shaboo Strikes Back' while 'Sugar Cane Juice' is a more edgy hip-hop cut. Super stuff.

La Funk Mob était le projet d'Hubert Blanc-Francard aka BoomBass et de Philippe Zdar Cerboneschi. La Funk Mob a donné naissance à Cassius.Le son hip-hop/downtempo de La Funk Mob, ainsi que celui de The Mighty Bop, Etienne De Crécy et Dimitri From Paris, ont contribué à établir la French Touch. Impressionné par leurs compositions, James Lavelle tient absolument à les signer sur son label. Considérés comme une référence incontournable en Grande-Bretagne ainsi qu'aux Etats-Unis, les deux Français ont sorti leurs deux premiers EPs sur Mo'Wax."Né en 1991 au studio Plus XXX à Paris, La Funk Mob est le premier melting-pot musical que nous avons produit avec Philippe. L'équipe de Mo'Wax m'a appelé en 1993. James Lavelle aimait " Qui sème le vent récolte le tempo " de Mc Solaar, alors il m'a simplement demandé de la musique. Nous sommes sortis du studio quelques semaines plus tard avec ces titres qui composent Les Tribulations extra sensorielles.” BoomBass
