SANITY + Sampling is Beautiful + LGTDZ DJ SET

SANITY

SANITY transcends rap to turn it into a true art form, skilfully blending hip-hop, jazz and soul in a unique style. Hailing from Birmingham, she stands out for her incisive and daring lyrics, embodying a new creative wave that celebrates fluidity and defies traditional categories.

Sampling is Beautiful

Recently appearing as the opening act for Vulfpeck at Jazz à Vienne 2024, Sampling is Beautiful Trio is composed of: Zajazza on turntables and samplers (has produced for Gaël Faye, HomeboySandman…), Yacha Berdah on trumpet and bass (Grand Corps Malade, Ibrahim Maalouf…), Japhet Boristhène on drums (Saïan Supa Crew, Chassol, Shibuuya).

Sampling Is Beautiful is: ‘A trio, a collective, a vibe, stylistic freedom, instinctive and improvised diversions.’ These are the words of artist Kaynixe in the introduction to their first album, ‘Capture,’ released in early 2024. Each ‘captured’ sample is highlighted, cherished, reversed, modified… and finally used as a melodic or rhythmic basis to build a new piece. With a certain black magic or piracy, this first instalment is a snapshot of the Trio’s musical moment, filled with tributes to the sampled composers, nods to jazz and film music.
