Sisso (Tanzania)
Mohamed Hamza Ally aka <a href="spotify:artist:6BWyGUePvj6U4znsi9P5Nt" data-name="Sisso">Sisso</a> is a pioneer within the singeli scene. His studio in Dar-Es-Salaam is the epicentre of the world’s most thrilling, punkish new dance style. Artists such as <a href="spotify:artist:1PHwATzL7LLfI8Vk4jB0oq" data-name="Bamba Pana">Bamba Pana</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3IsLmcVQQz0mojIXUnxREm" data-name="Jay Mitta">Jay Mitta</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:6DnyyK1TL0Lbfrvwz9zeLc" data-name="Duke">Duke</a> have all created their music in his studio.
Sisso’s productions epitomise Singeli’s hyperlocal scenius, distilling the vitality and struggle of life of the fringes of the Swahili-speaking world’s most populous city, into a unique music which seems to reflect the idea of keeping a cool head in frenetic situations.
Between his ratchet rhythms and pitched-up melodies there’s a sublime, unresolved tension at play, where the music feels to accelerate so fast that dancers are glyding, sustaining a breathlessly “up” effect that uncannily recalls mid ‘90s UK Happy Hardcore as much as Chicago Footwork, Caribbean Soca and Shangaan electro, yet with a psychotomimetic appeal all of its own. Accopagnied by Tanzania’s oldest female MC Rehema Tajiri they represant one of the most unique and energising experiences on the dancefloor.
