Informationen

ANA TIJOUX

Ana Tijoux wuchs in Frankreich auf, wohin ihre Eltern vor der chilenischen Militärdiktatur geflohen waren, seit 1993 lebt sie wieder in Chile. Seit ihrem Einstieg in die Hip Hop Szene Mitte der 90er Jahre hat sie sich zu einer der bekanntesten weiblichen MCs entwickelt. Ihr Album „1977“, das vom Sound stark an die 90er Jahre und das goldene Jahrzent des intellektuellen Hip Hops erinnert, kletterte auf Spitzenpositionen in den Bestenlisten von Amazon, Billboard und iTunes.

Ana Tijoux ist eine Symbolfigur für das moderne Lateinamerika. In ihrem Sound vereint sie mühelos eine nostalgische Panflötenmelodie mit fetten Boombox Beats, und lässt so zeitgenössischen Hip Hop mit Traditionen aus den Anden verschmelzen. In ihren Liveshows wirbelt sie durch Jazz, Funk, Pop und Hip Hop, ihre Texte stellen unmissverständlich klar, wer sie ist und wofür ihre Musik steht: Sie erhebt ihre Stimme und die Faust für soziale und politische Themen, für Feminismus, Bildung und soziale Gerechtigkeit. Definitiv eine Künstlerin, die man sich nicht entgehen lassen sollte! 

NOVALIMA

The pioneering Afro-Peruvian sound system Novalima returns with Planetario, a new release on Brooklyn’s Wonderwheel Recordings, and international touring launching in June.

April 2015 - From their humble start, file-sharing musical ideas and producing their first album in separate countries during the dawn of the internet, Novalima is now a live musical force revered worldwide for breaking boundaries and uniting seemingly irreconcilable genres, communities, and generations. They have created an inspiring movement and revolutionized the music scene in their native Peru by bridging a longstanding divide between the mainstream and the minority Afro-Peruvian community, who have struggled against discrimination and cultural dissolution for generations.

Over the last two years, Novalima created their newest offering, Planetario to be released June 16th on Wonderwheel Recordings. The album's name signals Novalima's musical growth and international connections – much of the album was recorded on tour when they collaborated with top local and international musicians. There is a strong connection to Colombia created through a remarkable recording session in Bogota organized by members of La-33 including Sidestepper vocalist Eka Muñoz, Pernett and La Mamba Negra. The album also has offerings from global artists such as Marc de Clive Lowe (UK/NZ), Panko from Ojos de Brujo (Spain), and Kumar (Cuban rapper based in Barcelona).

The album’s debut single, “Como Yo” (to be released May 19th on digital single and 7” vinyl) honors the legendary Peruvian percussionist and longtime band member Mangue Vasquez who passed away in 2014. Not one for sentimentality, Mangue implored his friends to celebrate his life with song and dance when he passed rather than shed any tears. The life affirming lyrics are underscored by rolling percussion,

twinkling synths, and a celebratory sing-song chant chorus: Gozen la vida como yo - Enjoy life, like I do.

Novalima has garnered worldwide critical acclaim from mainstream (NPR, UK Guardian, Wall Street Journal, La Presse, Metro, Billboard) and underground media (Giant Step, Remezcla, Nat Geo) alike, delivered legendary performances around the world at festivals such as Roskilde, WOMAD, Pirineos Sur, NYC Central Park, Montreal Jazz Festival and Chicago’s Millennium Park, earned a Latin Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Album, and were featured in cult filmmaker Robert Rodriguez’s hit Mexploitation movie Machete.

For their upcoming year of international touring Novalima has designed a brand new live show that will debut in Lima as part of the country's celebration of 100 years of Afro-Peruvian culture.
