AMMAR 808
Maghreb future sounds.
produced and developed by the acclaimed Tunisian producer Sofyann Ben Youssef (Bargou 08, Kel Assouf) – takes you into the dark realms of North African futurism. A musical world filled with magical creatures, an inevitable ultra low TR-808 bass and fiercely aggressive beats deeply mingled with the authentic sound of “Targ” (an old music style from North-Western Tunisia) in a futuristic visual atmosphere provided by Sia Rosenberg’s vjaying, that’s AMMAR 808, a compact version of AMMAR 808 & the Mahgreb United.

Nomågik (AkizzBeatzz)
Prince of Morocco sounds from the big city. Nomågik aka AkizzBeatzz describes himself as a „World Music 2.0“ representative and turning the spiritualities embedded in the heritage of north African culture into cuts designed for big sound systems. With echoes of Bonobo, Auntie Flo and flutters of Daniel Avery ́s brand of machine funk, he makes music designed for the pitch back emptiness of the Saharan desert and his everlasting skies.
Qrichi (Eck Echo)
Mysterious sounds from Latin America. Diego Hernandez aka Qrichi comes from Peru and is currently based in Berlin, where he chases after Eck Echo, the little god of the Andes with a secret bag of mysterious sounds from the depths of Latin America. Along his constant travels and exchanges, Qrichi has amassed a collection of records that narrate the bittersweet, often ecstatic episodes of remotes corners of the New World. Vintage sounds sublimely adapted to contemporary dancefloors.
