Afrotronix's electro Saharian blues is here right now and it's tinged with Chadian saï, Senegalese mbalax, Haitian kompas, West African Mandingo roots and electric Touareg blues, transported on a juggernaut loaded with deep house, dubstep and techno grooves driven by Chadian guitarist Caleb Rimtobaye. The Montreal-based producer formed Afrotronix in 2014 as a concept encompassing an afro futuristic approach of electronic music production. By 2016 they were headlining the Afropunk festival in Paris. Since then Afrotronix has toured in North and South America, Europe and Africa, releasing a critically-acclaimed album and numerous music videos. Rimtobaye's mission is to use his music as a medium to carry a Pan-African message, showcasing a different image of Africa to the world and also bringing it back home as attested by recent large-scale performances in Chad. Actively teaching to the AI and its digital structures how to speak the language of our African elders, Afrotronix has won several international prizes including the best African electro (2019) and best African( 2018) DJ at the All Africa Music Awards.
