For ten years Watcha Clan has been the watch-word for innovative Mediterranean grooves. To mark the dynamic decade they have redefined and revitalized their distinctive electro-sound, pepping up the party further with their Diaspora Hi-Fi project.

The Diaspora is in the music, the music is in the Diaspora, blown on the winds across the waters from Algeria to Agadir to Andalucia, meeting in the Marseille melting-pot.
The clan are musical nomads on a mission in search of space and freedom, embodied in the voice of Sista K whose mixed Ashkenazi, Sephardic and Berber ancestry epitomizes the borderless roots of Watcha-Clan's music manifesto.

Jewish, Muslim, Catholic or atheist? It doesn't matter. The future lies in faith in man and woman, brother and sister-hood and that's the message blasting out of the Diaspora Hi-Fi.
