Afro Funké Hosts DJ Phoreyz (The Get Back) + InLove Listening Party
Thursday, October 9 2008
Zanzibar, Santa Monica CA



event description
INLOVE spent the 15th first years of her life under the influence of African vibes, music, rhythm and dance. That's where she saw her first concerts of reggae, soul& funk music and that was her revelation! She fell in love with this type of music and couldn't imagine to live without it! She was 20 years old when she met the famous DJ CAM, they get along well enough to decide to collaborate on DJ CAM's album "SOULSHINE", they work on different tracks together including the hit "SUMMER IN PARIS" (over 1 million singles sold ) .

More and more she is requested for her compositions & interpretations! This is how she naturally decides to work on her own album. She wants it to be the incarnation of her true personality: warm, sensual, deep, luminous, sunny and full of love! She is inspired by many great artists as Ella Fitzgerald, Jill Scott, Sade, Dusty Springfield, Kelis , the Neptunes, Portishead, Estelle and many others ...


The weekly club Afro Funké is the brainchild of African Afro Roots Reggae star, Rocky Dawuni, who realized LA's need for a night dedicated to African music, culture and art and it's far reaching legacy around the world. Dawuni, who's based in LA and his native Ghana, together with producer and photographer Cary Sullivan created Afro Funké, bringing on board resident DJ and partner Jeremy Sole's Musaics. Each week Afro Funké presents guest DJs, live performances, dancers, record release parties, fundraisers, art installations, crafts and more while Sole spins his unique Musaics, or sound collage-blends of hip hop, jazz/funk, dub reggae, afro beat, and remixed world beats; pieced together with tribal breaks, and uplifted by dubbed-out turntable manipulation and live instrumentation.
