  • Bio

    Minimoogli's last Release, 99,9 (incl. Alix Alvarez SOLE Channel mixes) ....12 inch Vinyl.. .......Because most of nineteen nine dot nine percent of the informations you got about Africa is...wrong...(Fela Anikulapo Kuti & The Africa 70 V.I.P "Vagabond In power" Live).... An extended EP of tracks from Minimoogli -- all numbers based around their great "Tribute To Fela", which is also included in the package! The core tune has a crackling sound that's almost a 21st Century cosmic take on Afro Funk -- bits of keyboards breezing around the rhythms, vocals, and snakey sax lines -- all elements taken to even bigger extremes on the remixes here! Most of the mixes are more upbeat, electronic, and abstract than the original -- and make for sort of an extended suite on the main theme. © 1996-2008, ....Dusty Groove America, Inc....... A Funk For Fela (Original AfroJam) is now available on the great "We Love Afrobeat" Comet Records Compilation.. ...... ..Bio :......French DJ Producer Minimoogli acts in Parisian Electronic night since 1997. As known as; ..Cheers.., ..Dance With Your Head..... .. As Producer Minimoogli founded in 2005 his own label : ..Tubetracks.. .. French’s prime Deephouse/Nu Jazz-DJ/Producer, global groove activist and Tubetracks Records head honcho, Minimoogli follows up his Nu-AfroBeat Production "A Funk for Fela" with another dope tune. ‘99,9%’ features Sophia Nelson (Ghana voice), Hervé Meschinet (Burning Sax). Remixes are contributed by the top notch Alix Alvarez (Sole Channel N.Y.), Braka (Lithuanian weapon from Vilnius) & one of France’s finest House-Music-Artists Lanoiraude... ..Top 10 & Chart : ..

  • Sounds Like

    ...... .... .... Some definite funk for Fela -- not of the Afro variety, but pretty darn great nonetheless! The Afro Jam version is heavy on electric piano at the start, then gives way to a bit of spoken vocals with a pretty righteous theme -- a nice dose of politics that then steps back for an especially great solo in the middle -- one that has the keyboards jamming with some fuzzier, freakier qualities that really live up to the "moog" in the artist's name! The dub version on the flipside is a bit more uptempo and house-oriented -- and "Lima Wessu" is a mellower tune with lyrics and some warmer African overtones (Dustygroove USA)..... Up to date afro beat with an electronic edge from French beatsmith Minimoogli inspired by and dedicated to the irreplaceable Fela Kuti. Flip for Mini's re edit of Youssou N dour .... Tubetracks start like with this groovesome tribute to the king of Afrobeat, Fela Kuti. 'A Funk For Fela' Afro Jam is a slow with spoken word track enlivened by tales of the exploitation of Africa from a Nubian princess, wonky keys and a Fela-style saxophone solo. Eric's dub adds 4x4 beats and a groovy bassline for a clubbier mix and the 12'' also features Minimoogli's subtle remix of Youssou N'Dour's 'Lima Weesu'.

  • Frédéric Petit Composit…

    “Tant que tu respires” le dernier film de Fara Sene sélectionné en compétition au 27ème festival d’Alès a reçu les prix suivants:
    - mention spéciale du jury
    - prix Sacem pour la musique originale du compositeur Frédéric Petit.

    http://www.midilibre.com/articles/2009/03/15/20090315-ALES-ALES-Palmares-de-la-competition-de-courts-metrages-du-festival-cine.php5

    Extrait du journal Midi Libre:

    …Parmi les treize films en compétition, celui qui les a sans doute le plus touchés est “Tant que tu respires” de Fara Sene, qui a obtenu deux prix : la Mention spéciale du jury et le Prix de la musique originale, qui revient au compositeur Frédéric Petit.
    Ce film porte un regard à fois lucide et tendre sur les rapports que l’on essaie de créer, sur la différence et la nécessité d’aimer dans une société si peu aimable parfois…
    ( texte de Nicole Robert)

    Il a par ailleurs reçu le prix qualité CNC 2009 et a été présenté à Cannes au Short Film Corner 2009.
