Ancient Indigenous Africans

Ancient Indigenous Africans

“The past meets the future in the present” in this urgent collaboration, born at the roots of the Nile, between turntablist and producer Mutamassik, and vocalist and narrator Lengai Loita. Within Ancient Indigenous Africans, Loita sings in his mother-tongue - Maa - sharing Nilotic Aesop’s fables and pastoral hymns dealing with the current plight of the Maasai tribe. His chants intertwine with Mutamassik’s muscular polyrhythms and expressive synths, creating an intense, expansive, and distinctive soundscape inspired by electronic hip-hop, hardstep and junglist punk.
