“Return of the Boogie Nights”
Jamukarie – Sound Track Video is OUT!!
Inspired by the pilot for the short film “Return of the Boogie Nights” produced by Myndz Community, music trio Rafiqi were casted for the pilot and were so impressed by the location and decided to use the site to shoot the music video Jamukarie.
” Its quite an urban mystical place,”says Ezeek, Rafiqi vocalist, “I remember at one point two white horses appeared from nowhere while we were shooting and the house itself, has a character of its own,”
The video has an erring feeling which reflects the mysticism surrounding the house.
“Jamukarie is a excellent piece of work, from a likewise brilliant project that is Kalimpantu the album, way to go Rafiqi!” Dj Dubwise

Uupara remix by limoNero – just in
The Rafiqi-captained ship “Spread Luv thru music” docked in Nerthelands recently to find limoNero; a hiphop and dubstep producer who translated Uupara- a single from Kalimpantu, the latest offering from Rafiqi, to a dubby hiphop mix “I started producing in january 2009,” he names his main influences as; jay dee, el-p, 9th wonder, madlib, dan the automator and the rza.
A quick visit to his profile gives you a taste of what you can expect from limoNero. He says about working on Uupara, ” I wanted to make the mix a uptempo song…I treid to make the track ‘hip-hop’ (boom bap drums) but on the other hand I wanted to contribute to the ‘sound’ of the vocals,” that explains the funky guitar one can hear on the track.
Listen and Download the mix here.

“Just recently I finished up work on “Kalimpantu” – a great song by a group called Rafiqi.It reminded me a bit of Johnny Clegg – one of my favorite artists. I invite you to take a listen, and if you like what you hear, you should check out more of their music – they were a nice discovery for me and I really enjoyed producing their track.” – Paul Kerry

A tribute to woman all over the world
The video is shot in dimness with the candle highlighting the artists expressions as they praise and reveal their sentiments on the other gender, a collage of photos that showcase women in different locations, moods, ages and races.The flash effect blends well with the digital color effects that are suitably dissolved as the video plays. The full effect of the content is a feling of recognition for all the struggles that women go through on a daily basis and the lit candles is as if to acknowledge the fact that the world does pretend not to see that struggle an apology and praise at the same time
