With the same passion for black music\, this project offers younger musicians an introduction to the world of soul and funk. The BMBB Junior is a training platform that seeks to be the gateway for the little ones\, helping them explore and delve into the musical styles of Black Music. \n \nDespite being a young formation\, the BMBB Junior has already accumulated numerous performances in prestigious venues\, such as the Copa stage and the Sant Felix stage of the Sant Narcís Fairs in Girona\, the Girona Auditorium in the tribute to Aretha Franklin\, the Parc del Migdia at the Black Music Picnic\, La Mirona\, the Fira de Luthiers de la Cellera de Ter\, and in other locations such as Torroella de Montgrí\, Palamós and Calonge\, among others. One of the highlights of their career was the tribute concert to The Commitments in October 2021\, which featured the special collaboration of Andrew Strong\, the protagonist of the original film. \n \nThrough this project\, BMBB Junior contributes to training and inspiring new generations of musicians\, fostering a link with black music that goes beyond the stage\, and becomes a key piece in the promotion of Black Music among the youngest in Catalonia.

The result\, as always\, is pure craftsmanship. An honest collage of light and darkness without artifice. Extraño Weys became known in 2014 with an EP that can already be considered a cult\, “Variacions en fu-remoll de la 5a Sinfonia inedita de Roger Linn”. They would then enter a dormant fallow period until the publication\, in 2021\, of the seminal album “Rodrigo Laviña y su combo”\, Enderrock award for best urban music album 2022. And now finally the long-awaited sequel arrives.

Arp Frique & The Perpetual Singers’ “The Gospel Of Jesamy” is a personal journey of good news that begins with the birth of a baby girl named Jesamy\, Arp Frique’s daughter. The Amsterdam-based multi-instrumentalist\, composer\, and producer returns with a new album full of gospel funk inspired by his offspring. The lesson is simple and universal: we all need love\, unconditional love. \nThis new album is a profound journey across 7 tracks\, where Arp Frique channels his love of organic\, funk-based music\, filled with dark synths\, bubbling basslines\, and swirling guitars to deliver a hybrid of old and new that could be described as a mix of P-funk and gospel-disco. \nLegendary vocalists abound on this Gospel: Dennis Bovell channels his inner funkadelic on “Look Up Johnny”; diva Muriel Blijd takes a solo on “Father Father”; and long-time harp collaborator Mariseya joins the vocal team throughout the album. \nLive on stage\, Arp Frique is surrounded by a cosmic gospelfunk family\, including legendary Los Angeles-born singer Rocq-E Harrell. In his decades-long career\, Rocq-E has sung with many of the greats\, providing studio vocals for artists such as Stevie Wonder\, Patti Labelle\, and Earth Wind & Fire. Rocq-E has also toured with Diana Ross and Barry White\, to name a few. Arp Frique & The Perpetual Singers have secured support from artists such as Gilles Peterson\, Louie Vega\, and Moodymann\, leading to an energetic start to the live show\, as they have performed at We Out Here\, Oya\, Flow\, Way Out West\, North Sea Jazz\, and many other major festivals across Europe.
