about

We have been planning lots of exciting new collaborations for 2023, and we have been leading a fundraising initiative to help realize them. We're super grateful for the $7,288 we've raised out of our Jan 31st $30,000 goal. Today, we are offering another way for you to support our work: from now until January 31, we have increased the minimum price for each item in our bandcamp discography to $25. Under our fair-trade model, this temporary price increase offers a unique opportunity to not only support our work but also increase compensation to our partner artists. We split the net proceeds of each traditional release 50/50 with the traditional artist, and remix releases are split 3-ways between our organization, the remix artist, and the traditional artist. Thank you for your continued support!

In gratitude,
Hatim Belyamani on behalf of the Remix ⟷ Culture collective

----------

This remix of Innov Gnawa's "Bangara" is a fresh new take on Gnawa music that honors the soul of the sound and the musicians who carry the tradition.

A chance encounter with a Touareg dancer in 2013 led Greek producer AkizzBeatzz to discover the music of North Africa, sparking his passion for Gnawa (a pan-African Sufi ritualistic trance tradition that arose from the shadows of slavery in Morocco), which he has continued to study and explore since.

When AkizzBeatzz came across Remix ⟷ Culture's unique Gnawa recordings and remixable sonic offerings (remix-culture.org/innov-gnawa), he jumped at the invitation to download (for free) and remix our high-quality samples. Once his track was ready, AkizzBeatzz approached Remix ⟷ Culture for a license to commercially release this remix, in accordance with Remix ⟷ Culture's fair trade economic model, which splits net proceeds evenly between all co-creators (AkizzBeatzz, Remix ⟷ Culture, and Innov Gnawa).

For just $1 you can get your hypnotic groove on *and* invest in a new fair trade ecosystem.
