TiZ EAST, Berri-Tiga -  Yellow Buses

TiZ EAST is making a triumphant return with his first single of the year, "Yellow Buses," set to be released on Friday, April 21st. The high-energy track features Berri-Tiga, the talented vocalist behind the chart-topping hit "Machala" with Carter Efe, which took the number one spot on the Nigerian Music Charts.

"Yellow Buses" is a perfect example of how two distinct genres, Afrobeats and Hip-Hop, can blend together seamlessly. TiZ EAST draws inspiration from his childhood memories of riding the Danfo, a type of public transportation in Lagos, with his mother. The song's production by Bayoz Muzik and vocal mix by Producer X perfectly capture the bustling energy of the dynamic city.

TiZ EAST is renowned for his versatility and has received critical acclaim from publications such as Rollacoaster, Clash, EarMilk, and Viper Mag. Additionally, he has received consistent radio support from BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM, BBC 1Xtra, Capital Xtra, and more. TiZ EAST's exceptional talent has earned him the opportunity to perform alongside industry heavyweights such as WizKid and Kaytranada at DLT Malta last summer.

Unrequited 1

A new thread of reviews that somehow missed the cut- the music is still mighty fine and the write up is not bad either. Here goes:

Rey Sapienz & The Congo Techno Ensemble-  ‘Na Zala Zala’ (Nyege Nyege Tapes/released July 2021)

In case you hadn’t noticed the sound of afrobeat is taking on a new dimension: riding on a surge of youthful energy; absorbing rap’s bite, trap’s bile and electro’s drive; committed to the cutting edge but deeply aware of tradition. ‘Electronicafrica’ is the sound of a new underground busting through the surface with the continent’s East as a focal point and Kampala at the epicentre. You may have caught Don Zilla’s rampant new album beaming out from the Ugandan capital a couple of weeks ago, well now in hot pursuit comes Rey Sapienz and his new collective The Congo Techno Ensemble looking set to add their full force to this gathering storm with their first album ‘Na Zala Zala’ due on 16th July via the supremely out-there Nyege Nyege Tapes.

As a producer and rapper Sampienz has already released two name drop mutant electronic dance EPs, ‘Mushoro’ and ‘Hakuna Kulala’ but on ‘Na Zala Zala’ he’s avoided the easy option of the repeat button. Here he’s joined up with percussionist, vocalist and dancer Papalas Palata plus rapper Fresh Dougis and let the collaboration explore new ground, somewhere between sci-fi and low fi, a world of synthetic power beats and real life tensions.

‘Dancehall Pigme’ lays down the marker for the album with a dark techno underbelly, indignant rap and Palata’s gliding vocals rising above the pounding beats. It’s a track that has a subtle emotional impact, lifted by the traditional trajectory of the singing but held in check by the juddering synths that stalk the background….in other words, yes things get intense.

That invention and range in the vocal presentation on ‘Na Zala Zala’ is one of its many identifiers. ‘Esala Rein’ matches paired down beats and Kraftwerk synth snatches with a complex collage of voices from Palata and Dougis. Grunts, growls, shouts and yelps make for a heated conversation that sounds spontaneous but never misses a rhythmic step. ‘Posa Na Bika’ shamelessly blends faux chorus pop ‘na-nas and ooh-oohs’ with traditional chanting and slinky trip-hop spoken word, whereas crazed phrases confront each other to the point of near delirium on the stridently minimal ‘Santonge’.

Such vocal power needs a strong platform which Sapienz builds with authority and flair. There is no excess baggage here, the beats are trim and lean giving the music the steely focus of a hard stare (for evidence check the welded drum propulsion of ‘Eza Makambo’ or the panel beating pulse of ‘Zuwa Ba Risk’ ). To add to these foundations Sapienz draws from traditional cross rhythms as well as the Congotronics’ catalogue to layer his sound. On ‘Na Zala Zala’ no hiss, click, off beat or horn blast is ever out of place.

The strong Congolese influence that underpins the album is not unexpected. The Ensemble have roots in the DRC and their experience of the country’s war ravaged past shapes both their messaging and music. As dark wave cuts like ’96’ and the title track swell with gothic vocal drones and choral synths, you are left in no doubt that this is a record looking for an emotional as well as physical impact. That’s not to say that ‘Na Zala Zala’ is doom laden. Sure there is a deep seam of anger and despair running through the grooves of Sapienz and the Congo Techno Ensemble’s work, but in keeping close with their afro-futurist vision the collective’s music remains forward thinking and innovative.

Final track ‘Minzoto’ seizes that tension between possible futures and painful reality to make a telling closing statement. As stuttering broken beats teeter on the brink, totemic vocals growl incantations before thrillingly bizarre harmonies take the hook. Then, almost gently, the song unwinds to a lilting folklore melody, closing the ‘Na Zala Zala’ journey on rare familiar ground. For the most part this is a record determined to break boundaries, a dizzying example of heavy music, weighty in purpose, in execution and in effect, unsettling, uneasy listening and absolutely indispensable.
