Once you go black you never go back and once you go African there’s no way back again. Our African brothers and sisters certainly know how to make you want to get down. Their deep heritage and culture revolve around music and more specifically rhythm. Over the years the sounds of Africa have lent themselves perfectly to the dancefloor and have provided endless inspiration for DJ’s and producers around the world. At Q&D we have certainly thrown many admiring glances South for source material in our sets and productions. This is a record we’ve wanted to make for a long time, but it’s not easy to tackle perfection. Not wanting to desecrate or disrespect the original tracks was always a big part of being so cautious about creating this record. After finding (in our opinion) the ideal two tracks to elevate we finally felt brave enough to go for it and ‘Afro Vibes’ is the result. Two lengthy groovers for your listening pleasure which are ripe for virtually any set. Stick this record on at peak time in a club or midday at a beach party and you’re sure to whip up a dancefloor frenzy of pure unbridled joy. Let Diaraby Nene take you on a journey of triumph or shake off all those troublesome vibes with the uplifting Mandola. Enjoy. Q&D x
