ÌFÉ
Afro-Beat
The electronic music moniker of New Orleans based African American producer and percussionist Otura Mun, ÌFÉ is a futuristic live electronic music project blending elements of Afro-Cuban folklore and Yoruban religious music with the bass driven sounds of modern day Jamaican Dancehall, Trap and Afro-Beat. The single most important electronic act in Afro-Caribbean music, ÌFÉ’s 2017 debut album “IIII+IIII” revolutionized the way electronic music was conceived and performed, seamlessly combining the intricacies of Afro-Caribbean percussion and song with the power of modern electronica played in real time, no DJ’s, no programming, totally freed from the grid. A groundbreaking reimagination of ancient diaspora music and movement, ÌFÉ’s music explores the higher frequencies while paying keen attention to the lower ones in a way that feels equal parts riot and ritual. ÌFÉ’s long awaited sophomore album, 0000+0000 was released to worldwide critial acclaim in November of 2021. -

HaSizzle
R&B
HaSizzle is the pulsating thump and the vivaciousness known as Bounce music. Never heard of him? Then you've probably never been to New Orleans. To save you the trip, I suggest turning on Drake's "Child's Play" to hear his voice being sampled.
"She rode that **** like a soulja." But Drake's recognition is only the tip of the iceberg for HaSizzle, who's been making music for nearly 15 years."Bounce music is 100% party music. Meaning, dance music... that Pop/Rock booty shaking sound that you rejoice in and enjoy yourself. I want the world to know that no matter what type of Bounce song you hear, slow or fast, you're gonna have a good time."
His charming, Southern personality is so refreshing that non-natives forget the faux-pas of asking about Hurricane Katrina. "I'm out the Calliope, and I was raised all over New orleans. The jungle was the name of the hood. In the song I have, where I say 'she rode it like jungle soulja', that was for the girls in the hood."
HaSizzle is the magic of New Orleans personified; he refuses to let tragedies drown his spirit—this reverberates through his music. The title of his latest Album The Voice 4 Church of Twerk, is also another example of his fabulous uniqueness. Not only is Getcha Sum ,” a single off of the Album, a radio and club banger in his city, it also is has a full signal regarding popularity when you search it on all digital music sites.
