Bantu – The Powerful Fusion of Maxwell Simons & Richi Rich on Beat Machine Records
Beat Machine Records proudly presents Bantu, a bold release from Maxwell Simons and Richi Rich. This powerful track pays vibrant homage to African roots, blending tribal rhythms with the raw energy of techno and bass music.
A blend of traditional and modern sounds by Maxwell Simons & Richi Rich
Bantu takes its name from the Bantu communities, a vast ethno-linguistic group spread across several African countries. This deep cultural reference is reflected in the track’s tribal percussion, hypnotic grooves, and Zulu-English vocals delivered with intensity by Richi Rich.
A Sonic Journey Across Three Continents
Produced between Brazil, Italy, and South Africa, Bantu bridges ancestral heritage with cutting-edge electronic production. Italo-Brazilian Maxwell Simons brings his background in baile funk, hip hop, and bass music, adding layered percussion and intricate sound design. Richi Rich brings raw emotion and depth through his commanding vocal performance.
A Bold Remix by ABADIR
The release features a remix by ABADIR, the Cairo-born producer renowned for his distinctive deconstructed club music style. His version reimagines Bantu as an atmospheric, glitchy, bass-heavy experience, rich in polyrhythmic tension.
