  • Nuri (tn/fr)  Nuri is a Tunisian-born producer and percussionist who now resides in France. Since the release of his debut solo album «DRUP» in 2017, Nuri has captured the attention of both the general public and the music industry with his distinctive approach to electronic music. His sound, influenced by Afro-futurism and enriched with live percussion, sets him apart. When performing on stage, Nuri adopts a masked persona, akin to a shaman leading a ritual, guiding music enthusiasts on a sensory journey through diverse cultural imagery. With an artistic presence reminiscent of a mystical sage, Nuri transcends North African traditions through a sound that harmonizes authenticity and innovation. His music, deeply influenced by North African trance rituals, has left an indelible mark on various stages, from clubs in Tunis to prestigious venues like the Rex Club in France and even international events such as Denmark’s Roskilde Festival. After the release of his debut album «DRUP» in 2017 and his second album «IRUN» in 2020, Nuri released the EP «111» in 2023, solidifying his place as one of the most experimental artists in the African electronic music scene. 111 represents a fresh exploration of long-forgotten folk sounds, incorporating enriched sample textures and polyrhythmic elements. This EP features notable collaborations with renowned artists, including the Italian producer and DJ Clap! Clap! and the duo Dengue Dengue Dengue. 111 is a project that seeks to celebrate diversity, creativity, and the unifying power of music across cultures and generations. It provides a comprehensive, engaging, and versatile musical experience suitable for both attentive listening and exhilarating dance. This project exemplifies how contemporary music can embrace cultural heritage and venture into uncharted sonic territories. Banga Spirits (tn/dk) For generations, the Banga ritual has thrived in southern Tunisia amidst the vast expanse of the Sahara and desiccated salt lakes, among the descendants of enslaved peoples and society's most marginalized groups. Yahya Chouchen, a member of the esteemed Banga family, embodies the essence of this tradition through his interpretation of the traditional Banga performance. He emerges from a lineage deeply rooted in the Banga, offering Danish audiences a unique window into a society where rituals intertwine with dance, music, song, and trance, bestowing a cleansing and soothing effect upon those present. Within the Banga and its community, a shield against the harsh realities of racism, ridicule, and humiliation prevalent in Tunisian society emerges. It serves as a sanctuary from oppression, a realm where individuals discover strength and acceptance, where one's essence is not belittled or shunned. The Banga becomes a sanctuary where participants reclaim power, as the rituals ignite both fascination and trepidation among outsiders. Within the confines of the Banga, spirits temporarily inhabit human vessels, guiding them through wild dances and trances fueled by pulsating music. Many are drawn to its allure, eager to experience the empowering force of the Banga and relinquish control to revel in ecstasy. Yet, it is not solely the domain of the youth; during these rituals, both young and old, men and women alike are seized by trances that propel their bodies into frenzied movements synchronized with the music's rhythm. As the Banga Spirits command the space, drums reverberate, and voices from the Banga family envelop attendees, transporting them into a world apart. Surrender to the rhythm, and allow yourself to be swept away on this journey.
