The Kenya Born, Berlin Based Percussionist, Vocalist, DJ, Producer And “Musical Witchdoctor” Alai K Releases His Red Hot Debut Album
‘Kila Mara’, Via On The Corner Records. Sonically Speaking, This Vivacious Collection Of Frenetic, Polyrhythmic And Percussive Workouts Link The Spirit Of Jeff Mills, DJ Rush, DJ Bone And K Hand With Beats From The Bajuni Islands, Mozambique, Malawi And The Maritime Swahili Coastline North Of Mombasa. On Moving To Berlin, Alai Went Raving Regularly And Became Enamoured With Underground Dance Music Culture. “I Love Techno And Believe That African Drums Influenced The Percussion And Programming: Lt’s Coming From The Same Place; With Both You Get Extended Periods With No Chorus Or Verse, Just Occasional Chanted Or Chopped Vocals. In Africa People Play Drums And Dance For Hours, Which Is The Same Experience As Western Electronic Music”, Says Alai.
