Genesis Show - ''The Highlife'': An audio documentary & music time capsule taking us through the late 60s & 70's on a journey to Ghana post-independence, where we delve into the 70's afro fusion sound of West Africa, and social commentary on the civil war in Nigeria. We touch on the music & take a look into the minds of both artists & political leaders to get a touch of the collective feeling during these times.
Aimée is an emerging DJ that has entered the Accra art scene with a bang! She's a part of VVE DJ collective in Denmark. After many visits to the country, she moved to Ghana in 2021. She blazes the dancefloor with her blends of Afrohouse, Afrobeats & Afro-Latino rhythms: sounds with deep percussions that make the people move & dance! Elinam (But I'm Not a DJ) like her stage name suggests, is slow to consider herself a DJ just yet. A lover of instrumentals first, she plays a catalog of music depending on mood rather than the audience, be it the 90's beats of J Dilla, the psychedelic strings of jazz fusion band Khruangbin or the electronic beats of Kaytranada. The aim is to make listeners FEEL.
