DJ Set - Jokkoo Collective featuring B4MBA, MOOKI6 & TNTC
JOKKOO Soundsystem originated in parties in the squares of Barcelona and, despite going global, aims to stay true to its roots by creating accessible spaces to share black experimental and electronic music and exchange effervescent energies with the audience.
Dates and times
Thursday, October 8, 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Address
Quai de Marseille, Bassin de l'Eure
Accessibility
Children ages 6 and up. The DJ set may be loud, so we recommend using a volume limiter (such as appropriate headphones) for children under this age.
Soundsystem culture inspires the dynamics of interaction between vocalists, DJs and dancers, and is reflected in a focus on riddims and bass frequencies which move minds and bodies. With six multi-talented members, the alchemy of Jokkoo generates adaptable combinations open to improvisation, collaborations and hybrid performances.
While not currently touring with its own physical soundsystem, Jokkoo pays respects to those who came before and continues the ancestral search for unity through sound and dance
