SHACKLETON & MC YALLAH - LATE JUNCTION SESSION 04.11.22 (320kbs-m4a/65mb/25mins)
BBC Radio 3 broadcast: 4th November 2022
Verity Sharp shares the results of our latest long-distance collaboration session, between enigmatic English producer Shackleton and Kenyan rapper MC Yallah.
Growing up amongst what he has described as the rugged and merciless landscapes of Northern England, Shackleton is a producer in his own lane, a purveyor of stark and uncompromising electronic rhythms and textures. Founder of record labels Skull Disco and Woe To The Septic Heart!, his music defies categorisation, drawing elements from the worlds of dubstep, techno and ambient, as well as musique concrète, Indonesian gamelan and Moroccan gnawa. Now based in Berlin, his latest EP, The Majestic Yes, builds on the rhythms of Senegalese sabar drum rhythms to craft a web of intricately layered musical explorations.
Kenyan rapper MC Yallah has been a formidable figure in the Ugandan hip hop scene since the 90s. An affiliate of the Nyege Nyege crew since its inception in 2013, her fierce and intense lyrics are drawn from real-life experiences and often address women's issues. Delivering her words in a range of languages including Kiswahili, Luganda, English and Luo, MC Yallah's artistry is shot through with integrity and self-determination.
