Video: Mo Laudi's “The Slaves Meditation” Is Nu World Electro (Free DL)
[embed width="560"][/embed]
<p><strong>Mo Laudi </strong>is a progressive DJ/MC hailing from South Africa, residing in the UK, who we first got hipped to through his work with <strong>The Very Best</strong>. His eclectic and engaging musical style has landed him gigs along side the likes of <strong>Roy Ayers, Diplo, Kid Cudi,</strong> and <strong>Fatboy Slim</strong> just to name a few. His new track “The Slaves Meditation” combines a driving bass line of African and Latin rhythms with a chorus influenced by ancient Haitian Voodoo ceremonies. Laudi refers to the track as "Nu World Electro" - appropriate given the mash up of old world X electro future + multiple cultural references. Just what we love. Check out the video for the single, above, which features concert footage from the <strong>Sakifo Festival</strong>, set on the beach on a small tropical island in the Indian Ocean (note to self: GO THERE). The video itself is a throw-back, using a psychedelic hipstamatic grainy-saturated effect that puts us back in the groovy 70's, where we like to stay.
