NEW ALBUM LIVE FROM THE MOON!

The Selenites Band – LIVE FROM THE MOON

Live recording
8 tracks on vinyl (silkscreen sleeve) + CD with bonus tracks
release May 2024

The Selenites Band are back in 2024 with a Live album.

8 tracks of psychedelic jazz influenced by Ethio-groove and Swinging Addis, recorded in analogue on a tape recorder during two concerts in April 2021 and June 2023. These recordings are an opportunity to discover 5 previously unreleased tracks as well as live proto-versions of tracks from the album ‘Behind The Mask’ released in 2021.
All the titles are composed by Antoine ‘Obi Riddim’ Laloux, with the exception of two tracks written by Seyoum Gèbrèyès and Tlahoun Gèssèssè; a melodic universe, a music of heady modal trance, a cinematic space and the energy of punk!

Each cover of this limited edition is a silkscreen print by Obi Riddim.

" The Selenites Band pushes this beautiful music front and center, inspired by the spirit of this music and moved further into the light of the full moon where the world can see. Listen to these tracks, they are an amazing piece of musicianship and have stood the test of time with the masters. They will no doubt stand the test of time with the present day audience as well. "
