Waaju and Majid Bekkas come together for a forward-thinking session at The Jazz Cafe, London, blurring the lines between North African tradition and exploratory jazz. Known for his work in the Gnawa and jazz fusion realms, Majid Bekkas brings decades of musical heritage, ranging from hypnotic Moroccan rhythms to cosmic improvisation. Waaju, London’s own champions of global jazz, channel deep grooves inspired by West African sounds into their energetic live approach, rich with percussive interaction and fluid musicianship.
The night’s foundation is set by Ben Brown, whose rhythmic sensibilities and production precision have made him a fixture in the UK scene. Expect a finely curated set traversing future-focused electronics, deep broken beats, and textured soundscapes, amplifying the night’s spirit of boundary-pushing sonics. This is a unique meeting point for dancers and listeners drawn to the synergy between jazz improvisation and dancefloor momentum.
From club-fuelled electronics to roots-inspired live sets, Waaju x Majid Bekkas at The Jazz Cafe promises an evening of intensity, experimentation and movement.
