Dowdelin

créole / electro / jazz / soul

Dowdelin explores as a tireless ever moving trailbazer a path where Creole jazz, electronic dancefloor sounds and Caribbean percussions come together to create a unique Future Kréol feeling.
The Black Atlantic, title of an important work by Paul Gilroy, an English sociologist, states the theory that “there is a hybrid culture, which is neither African, nor American, nor Caribbean, nor British, but all that at the same time: the black Atlantic. ”

Fresh off a nomination at Les Victoires du Jazz for their album “Lanmou Lanmou” released last January with Underdog Records, Dowdelin returns with a new 3-track EP named “Péké Viré” which can be translated as “We won’t look back”.This is indeed a departure as the band, as per usual with each new release, redefines itself, or rather develops/extends its enjoyable mix of cultures and influences to reach uncharted musical landscapes/universes.

No spot in music is immovable. No music can sit still but it’s hardly ver as true as it is for Dowdelin, a band that can’t be tied down to a single geography and genealogy. The creole language, Caribbean rhythms, urban energies, dazzling virtuosity, sensual electro: The group evolves in a unique place where genres and colors, heritage and audacity can merge.
