After the Norient Festival Emma Nzioka aka Coco Em and producer Ka(ra)mi will represent Norient at the Colomboscope Interdisciplinary Arts Festival in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Shifting the pulse from Kenya and Swiss wintertime for a tropical January evening, Colomboscope takes great joy to present a session with cross-oceanic allies on the decks – facilitated through a festival season collaboration with Norient. This rare musical collaboration brings the freshest sounds from Nairobi to Paris for a shake down at Colombo’s SNAFU – dream project (in the making) of the multi-talented crew behind Jambutek and Pettah Interchange.
Nairobi-based DJ, filmmaker, and Artistic Director of the 13. Norient Festival, Coco Em will be unleashing her contagious blend of genres from kudoro, linga, hip hop to afro house to electrify from ears to feet. She will be joined for an elevating set by Swiss artist, DJ and producer of Haitian-Hungarian origin, Ka(ra)mi, adding soul, house and Caribbean influences to the mix. The only thing we can foresee is that this night will be over sooner than anyone is ready.
This event is supported by Pro Helvetia, Swiss Arts Council.
