Qumagu (TZ04) by Tropikal Camel
Tribak are proud to present an EP from Berlin based producer and label boss Tropikal Camel.
With over 20 year experience under his belt, reviews in The Guardian, The Wire, XLR8R, and performances at Fusion Festival, NyegeNyege, and LesTans Musicals, he's known for his original brand of hypnotic percussion, heavy bass, and captivating polyrhythms.
His latest album "Nijerusalem", together with the synth legend from Niger, Mamman Sani, has received positive reviews from Le Monde, Liberation and many other platforms.
"Qumagu" blends trancy pads and ecstatic rhythms, melting sounds from North Africa with the rhythm of the South African bass genre Gqom, resulting in three tracks, each a mutant of the original idea, in different forms.
The tension-driven composition creates a cinematic setting, but the melodies are bright, with a delicate balance between meditative moments and those of an earthquake, creating a unique balance that has depth and character.
