David Hanke - the German DJ and producer famed for his
extensive work, including that of over one hundred remixes, under the moniker
of Renegades of Jazz - now forges ahead with the next step of his musical
evolution... Dem Juju Poets.
The success of the 45 and digital singles from last year
- through DJ Krimi's French record label, Krimi Records - has spawned the
release of the full-length album, 'Liberated Thoughts', now released through
Matasuna Records. And fans of the
aforementioned 'Voodoo Jazz' and 'Watusi Fever' singles (the latter of which
features the musician and producer Hugo Kant on flute) can expect more of the
dancefloor-driven afro-funk same - a sound now synonymous for fans of Renegades
of Jazz and David Hanke in general.
'Liberated Thoughts' is presented by the relatively young
Swiss record label, Matasuna Records, which is headed up by DJ and producer
Alex from the SoulBrigada crew and promises good things down the Matasuna
pipeline if all twelve tracks of Dem Juju Poets are anything to go by. Released through vinyl, CD and digital
formats, David Hanke's production on tracks like album opener, 'At The Jubilee
Gardens', the brilliant 'Stonetown Shakedown', 'Mala Mali', and perhaps the
album highlight in 'Barbara'.
With much excitement, we look forward to what Matasuna
Records unveils next, and certainly look forward to more from Dem Juju Poets!
