Raül Refree Maria MazzottaSan Paolo di Galatina
This project came about gradually, driven by suggestions from festivals and without the pressure of a recording commitment. When Raül received an email from Maria Mazzotta asking to collaborate, he had to decline due to his busy schedule, but he fell in love with her voice. A few years later, during a trip to Apulia in April 2022, they took the opportunity to meet and play together. During this meeting, Maria taught him many songs from the traditional repertoire of southern Italy. When the Clàssics ...more

  • 4/1/2026The World Music Charts with Raül Refree und Maria MazzottaWith their joint album, Raül Refree and Maria Mazzotta are featured in April’s Transglobal World Music Chart (6) and the World Music Charts Europe (2). “San Paolo di Galatina” draws on classical instruments from our history and combines them with liturgical influences from vocals, choir, organ and guitar to create a popular yet contemporary reinterpretation. It captivates with its beauty and the depth of its sound, which at times plays with emptiness and silence and at others seeks out avant-garde sounds. It is a work that says a great deal through small gestures and tells a narrative arc that leads us from religion, through work and grief, to the realisation that singing is a necessity for our liberation and our personal and social development. ...moreLatest release

  • 3/31/2026Souad Massi tops the Transglobal World Music Charts with her album “Zagate”Somewhere between folk, rock and poetry, Souad Massi is back with Zagate, a dazzling album in which the softness of her vocals stands in stark contrast with the weight of today’s world. The emotional force and lyrical clarity present throughout this eleven-track album makes it the most liberated and outspoken work in the French-Algerian artist’s career. Helmed by English guitarist and producer Justin Adams - already present on the album Sequana (2022) - the eleven tracks on Zagate, recorded predominantly in England, explore a range of emotions of a rare intensity: pain, anger and revolt, but also hope and courage. From the electric rock of Ana Inssan to the bewitching Afrobeat of Samt, or from the Saharan folk of D’ici, De là-bas to the Parisian blues of Chibani, each track reveals new vocal nuances. ...moreLatest release
