Select 405: Mixed by DJOJO
The Egyptian drummer-turned-DJ joins us on Select with an African polyrhythmic mix featuring Ekambi Brillant and Steve Monite.
This week on Select, Egyptian drummer-turned-DJ DJOJO joins us with a vibrant, groove-laden set exploring 70s and 80s African music, with a strong focus on West Africa. Drawing on his background as a drummer, DJOJO taps into his obsession with polyrhythms, weaving together a soulful, movement-forward journey.
The mix sets off with Ekambi Brillant’s buoyant ‘Aboki’, introducing a lively pulse that flows into the cult-classic synth-boogie of Steve Monite’s ‘Things Fall Apart’. The energy stays locked in as Free Youth’s infectious ‘We Can Move’ raises the temperature, driving the set toward the warm, horn-laced afro-funk textures of Eko Roosevelt’s ‘Tondoho Mba’.
