KIDY is not someone who plays music - he owns it. Twenty years of turning dancefloors into something closer to ritual, his sets carry an emotional weight that stays long after the last beat drops. His music moves through the playlists of the world's finest selectors, lands on leading radio stations, and climbs charts with the quiet confidence of someone who has always known where he belongs. Beside him stands Idd Aziz - born in Kenya, rooted in the continent's soul, now carrying that heritage across the globe from his base in Norway. A pioneer of Afro-fusion, he has shared creative space with Angélique Kidjo and Youssou N'Dour, captivating audiences since he first took the stage at fifteen. His voice carries generations - conscious, soulful, built for unity. Together on QulaqAs Records, they present "Kokareku" - and it hits like a statement. A full-bodied Afro House anthem with bass that moves the floor before the crowd even realizes it's moving. Raw energy wrapped in intention. The kind of record that doesn't ask for attention - it commands it. To submit your demo, please send an email to demo@qulaqas.com

QulaqAs Afro House

KANKOU is an AfroTech artist from Italy with Burkinabé–Ivorian roots. His rhythm-driven music blends West African pulse with South African club precision, focusing on repetition, tension, and immersive low-end soundscapes for the dancefloor. He positions his work within contemporary AfroTech, defined by a strong conceptual and cultural identity. On QulaqAs Records, he presents his brand new creation, "DIASPORA WHISTLE", which is built around the idea of sound as transmission. A distant, controlled whistle emerges as a recurring signal - not a lead element, but a marker that guides the listener through tension, space, and repetition. The track unfolds through layered percussion and low-end pressure, developing a hypnotic flow where momentum is created by restraint rather than impact. Rhythmic patterns move with purpose, gradually intensifying the atmosphere without ever breaking its internal balance. Rather than expressing identity through words or vocals, Diaspora Whistle focuses on circulation: sound travelling, returning, and reshaping itself across the dancefloor. Positioned within contemporary Afrotech, the track operates as a bridge between movement and memory, designed for immersive, late-night environments where repetition becomes direction.
