About this item

Precursor EP to Mr Raoul K's new album, which will be released in autumn 2024. The afro house pioneer has returned to his home country Côte d'Ivoire. Raoul K: "Since I know how good and easy it is to live in my home country of Côte d'Ivoire, I drew a line in Germany and set off." So he's back in full effect with spiritual afro-tinged gems, catching the vibe and easier living there, and discovered new voices from Kenia, South Africa and India, too. "Sinkere" got mixing skills from Rancido, while Compost head honcho Michael Reinboth delivered a tempered stripped down remix of "Loni Kè".

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Feelin' this. "Urure" is the perfect mix of exotic dreaminess and direct breakbeats. "Sinkere" is more on that Henrik Schwarz / Innervisions tip, while "Loni Ke" is an epic slice of sunrise afro-house. Full marks across the board.
