Europa 12”

Malka Tuti was founded by Asaf Samuel and Katzele, two of the founders of Tel-Aviv’s 84% Creativity collective. Refusing to adhere to any official musical culture or heritage, they have a certain freedom in creating a mix of their influences over the years. Therefore, they decided to bring forward their ideas and tastes. “Europa” is the first single from Tapan’s (aka Nebojsa Bogdanovic and Goran Simonoski) forthcoming LP and follows up great releases on Crimes Of The Future and W.T. It is a moody and tunnelling epic fuelled by exotic drums, Middle Eastern horns and cosmic synths that build to a thrilling climax. The track was recorded during long jam sessions in Belgrade, at a time when the city ‘became the purgatorial destination for a large number of migrants’. This record reflects on a time when a real uncertainty descended on the Serbian capital.
