LOUZA
When Maloya sets Electro alight

Single 3 tracks by MOTSEK & Christine SALEM
Louza - Mawalé - Tyinbo Motsek Remix

It was on the day of tribute to the victims of slavery, in the gardens of the French Ministry of Overseas Territories on 23rd May 2023, that the stars finally aligned to bring together two extraordinary artists on the same stage. On that day, the deep voice of Christine SALEM, the bearer of ancestral Maloya-Blues from Réunion, was joined by the electro music of MOTSEK, a DJ and composer from Guadeloupe, trained in the fertile soil of Gwo-Ka, and founder of the Kaphonic Records label.
The inevitable shock of this encounter naturally led to a follow-up, with the two artists meeting in the studio a few weeks later to produce 3 tracks in a single breath. Christine SALEM's telluric voice powerfully hooks MOTSEK's powerful, masterful bass. The ancestors are irresistibly summoned, invited to revel in an exuberant modernity, propelled into an inevitable encounter with a standing today, fiercely alive and proud of its roots.

Louza is the name of one of the spirits invoked during ceremonies in Reunion Island. It's a night when the barrier between the present and the past is blurred, when the memory of the ancestors who accompany us at every moment is celebrated.
At the beginning, drums, conch shells and voices rise up, inviting souls to join the party. Feet pound the ground, and the earth itself seems to vibrate. In an upward swirl, silhouettes appear, stretch, disappear and are reborn in a never-ending movement: spirits bear witness to their presence, mingling with the living in a timeless celebration of a heritage that lives on.
