Биография

Ohxalá is the musical project of Maria & Luis, two musicians who originated in Porto, but whose music has origins down the Amazon, across Africa, and in folk sounds closer to their own native Portugal. In mixing these carefully curated field recordings with electronic basslines, Ohxalá’s music brings ritual back into the party, and collects a tribe from the crowd. The genre of Ethnobeats has blossomed in recent times. Listeners seek to connect with the rhythms and sounds of the world’s ancestors, and dancers want to move to ancient authenticity. The Ethnobeats movement has Ohxalá pulsing at its heart. Having just released their latest EP, Pong Disco, Ohxalá is flourishing creatively and has built a global following. That far-flung tribe of listeners are anticipating a debut album, whilst remixes with several acclaimed producers are in the works too. In traveling the world and trekking into some of its more hidden corners, Ohxalá is forever building their collection of field recordings with tribal musicians and sound-makers of all kinds. Maria & Luis draw up their inspiration from this inexhaustible reservoir of ancient sounds, and then electronic basslines enliven tracks where stretched leather drums once played. In live (re)performance, Ohxalá’s audiences dance to an alternate vision for the future built on a collective past.
