Z001 Nyege Nyege Archive - Series of 60

from MBE series

Between February 27th and March 23rd 2017, photographer Stéphane Charpentier and his partner sound artist and field recordist Alyssa Moxley joined Arlen Dilsizian (Moroto Hvy Ind) and Don Zilla on one of the many field recording projects that the Nyege Nyege crew frequently undertook into the Uganda country side. On that trip the focus was to record a specific set of troupes based in Eastern Uganda, primarily the Kadodi percussion troupes of the Bagisu tribe around the town of Mbale and the various Amadinda ensembles of the Busoga tribe around the town of Iganga. The second half of the trip saw them return to North Western Uganda working with the dizzying constellation of Acholi troupes that dot the landscape around the towns of Gulu and Lira.

about

MBE series Naples, Italy

Standing for "Mixed By Erry", the label takes its title from a mythical and somewhat anonymous pirate figure within Naples called Erry with no clear ties to music who issued a series of low-key cassette mixes in the late ’80s and early ’90s.
Each of these cassettes came emblazoned with the phrase: “The ideal dimension for a clean listening”.
