"Diaspora Hi-Fi, our new album, refers to the high fidelity sound that you can bring along when you leave your country, taking along your cultures, musics and lyrics. Listenin' to the album, we feel like all our friends from Algeria and Morocco met in our studio in Marseille for a big jam!" Watcha-Clan
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.
