New or Used : New Format : 7inch Gatefold Grading Cover / Record : S / S Label : shakshouka records Year : 2025 Catalog No / Pressing country : SR002 - UK
For its first vinyl release, Shakshouka Records presents the first ever reissue of the Algerian Kabyle band Syphax, a 7-inch featuring two irresistible disco gems that set the dancefloor alight while channeling a kaleidoscope of psychedelic textures and North African Amazigh spirit. Born in exile on the outskirts of Paris, Syphax fused psychedelic rock, funk, and North African rhythms with the lyricism of Amazigh poetry and the rebellious energy of the 1970s. This record pairs the celebratory "Thamghra" meaning "party" in Amazigh and originally featured on their long-forgotten LP, with the disco-infused "Skate Dance," released years before skate culture spread across the globe and a testament to the band's cutting edge. Remastered by Nick Robbins and compiled by Cheb Mimo. (Shakshouka)
