New York City-based DJ and producer Nickodemus made his name as the resident spinner at Turntables On The Hudson, a long-running global bass party held on a dock in Manhattan's West side. Since then, the Bronx-born producer's founded his own imprint Wonderwheel Recordings, from which he's released a number of singles, remixes and LPs by himself, Alsarah & The Nubatones, Quantic, and many others. Nickodemus also recently shared WONDERWORLD: 10 Years of Painting Outside The Lines, a celebratory mix CD to mark the 10 year anniversary of his debut LP.

For this installment of Africa In Your Earbuds Nickodemus turns in an entrancing 52-minute mix that runs through tracks by Bombino, Owiny Sigoma Band, Clap! Clap!, Rocky Marsiano and several others. "Throughout the years I've followed & spun African music in many forms of funk, hip-hop, house," the producer writes to Okayafrica via e-mail. "In this mix I wanted capture a little of it all including artists who may not be from Africa, but clearly collaborated with musicians or samples from the continent. As we know in music, it all comes full circle and we have to give respect to the many who've paved the way over the years to get us on the good foot worldwide today."
