about

Mista Monk . Australia
Yobalema Remix

'Yobalema' is the first material with the new singer Abass Ndiaye from Senegal, who brought lyrics in Wolof, influences and melodies from West Africa, which gave a whole new shape to the Duo, but maintaining the multicultural identity and the energy for the dance floors.

Mista Monk keeps the beautiful vocal of the original intact but flips the drum style into a dynamic Brazilian inspired rhythm featuring samba percussion and congas by Digital Afrika’s Future Roots.

Black Jesus Experience members Peter Harper and Ian Dixon weave anthemic horns throughout with Larry Cristani’s tasteful guitar a masterful finishing touch.

This is deep soulful West African territory and it’s assured offbeat rhythm makes for surefire dance floor mobilisation outside of the usual four on the floor style of the genre.
