Internationally acclaimed DJ Hamza will be back in our sunny state this week, and this time he’s performing with Rajasthani percussionist Latif Khan. When it comes to unusual, soul-stirring musical entertainment, it’s hard to beat this DJ/Percussionist duo playing an extraordinary blend of House, Tech House, East-West Fusion and World Music. In association with Goa Streets, Hamza & Latif will be wowing audiences at the Little Door in Baga on Thursday, March 6 and at Club Tito’s South Goa, at the Radisson Blu Resort on Cavelossim Beach on Saturday, March 8. Both gigs start at 8 pm, and they are not to be missed!

Between the two of them, Hamza and Latif have performed in Germany, the U.S., Portugal, Switzerland, England, France and South Korea, among other destinations. Both artists are making a big splash in the international music scene, and we’re privileged to have them perform for us right here in Goa. Of course it’s not just a performance. It’s a dance extravaganza, where YOU do the dancing!

Hailing from New Delhi, DJ Hamza has attained a reputation as a pioneer of the house scene in India and one of the more innovative and exciting up-and-coming producers today. Hamza’s diverse international sound is influenced from his strong musical background as well as growing up in India and traveling the world, living in Paris, Boston, and New York. Exposure to renowned house DJs such as Terry Francis, Dave Mothersole, DJ Heather, and Danny Teneglia inspired Hamza to create his own electronic dance productions. Soon he found a unique style of house music combining deep, tribal, and funky sounds with strong world music influences.

Hamza also has his own music label, Wind Horse Records, which has over a dozen releases under its belt, with a fast-growing  world-wide audience. With his impressive list of past and upcoming projects as well as fiery worldwide DJ performances, Hamza has become an important and influential talent in his own right.

 DJ Hamza and Latif Khan, from Rajasthan

 

Latif Khan, from Rajasthan, has music in his blood, belonging to the family of the Manganiyar. He plays a wooden instrument called the “morchang” that looks like a mouth organ and sounds like a  didgeridoo, in addition to many percussion instruments.

He started his musical career at the age of 15, and his ancestors have been playing the morchang for generations. A disciple of the famed Jasu Khan, Latif has played all around the world, and his unique combination of house music and Rajasthani percussive instruments, with DJ Hamza behind the console, is turning a lot of heads.

Let it turn yours, too, on Thursday, March 6 at the Little Door and and on Saturday, March 8 at Club Tito’s South Goa!
