yazz ahmed: la saboteuse remixed
Francisco Espregueira
Following the 2017 release of La Saboteuse, Yazz Ahmed's acclaimed psychedelic arabic jazz album, this remix EP brings together three of Europe's rising electronic DJ's - Hector Plimmer, DJ Khalab & Blacksea Não Maya. La Saboteuse, as a whole, is a journey of self-examination and with this remix EP, the reflection continues in different rhythmic directions.
Bahraini-British performer, Yazz Ahmed, is another brilliant composer and performer, part of the new and vibrant wave of jazz artists credited with stirring up the sound, including Kamasi Washington, Yussef Kamaal, Nubya Garcia or Joe Armon-Jones. Yazz Ahmed is thrilled by the possibilities of making something new. Her album, La Saboteuse, is a deep exploration of both her British and Bahraini roots, that is now re-thinked by other artists that found different paths to deliver such beautiful compositions. Available in vinyl.
