Jay Mitta - At the Villa (2019) [Hi-Res]

Nyege Nyege Tapes kick off a crucial mix series with The Modern Institute's blinding, 20-track razz; pelting thru unreleased collabs and remixes with Jay Mitta, Sisso and Errorsmith, along with 9 cuts to download individually.
In the two weeks after the 2018 edition of Nyege Nyege Festival, Tanzanian Singeli stars Jay Mitta and Sisso spent a lot of time hanging out and recording with The Modern Institute, Errorsmith and the extended Nyege Nyege family at their Villa HQ in Kampala, Uganda. The Modern Institute's mixtape celebrates this period of unbounded creative energy, selecting and weaving together 20 highlights from some 50+ hybrids of Singeli with Soca, Makina and hardcore electronic dance music.
Across their frenetic 56 minute mix The Modern Institute offer an experience as close as you'll get to the festival's energy without actually touching down on the Equator. Documenting a totally unprecedented period of creative fusion, they rattle thru 20 tracks with an appropriately sense of unsigned joy, careening thru myriad strains of quicksilver drums and and hotfooting rhythms in a way that will light up any party of open-minded and up for it dancers, especially those with a thing for new electronic dance music from Africa.
The nine individual tracks form additional tools for the DJs. Errorsmith and Jay Mitta supply a huge highlight with the barrelling momentum of 'Jam For Sisso', while The Modern Institute also turn out the radical helter skelter pelt of '200 edit' alongside seven groundbreaking collaborations with Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania's Jay Mita and Sisso, including stellar zingers in TMI & Mitta's mental 'Rave Remix Final' and the lightspeed syncopation of 'Drill Remix', plus the percolated step and tight, funky vamps of their jam with Sisso, 'Biti 5 Sisso buildup'.
