Trayizon (Instrumental) from Idantite (Instrumentals) by Zilwala

Idantite is dedicated in being and living as a native of our little island; upholding the fact that whatever may arise, we are one as a nation and we, each and every, are all ‘Zilwa’. Also, this has been brought about with love and a collective endeavour by Zilwala in hailing the typical seggae genre, as played and left to us by its late founder Joseph Reginald Topize (Kaya), with an instrumental evolution and the contribution to contemporary culture as a whole. Fevrier 99 and Seggae mo Lamizik are both tributes to the late seggae pioneer and founder, Kaya.

The Keystone behind this album is the collective synergy and shared creative-discipline among the band-members, promoting forward thinking and movement; creating music, as a group of synchronised zilwa working as one.

The instrumental backbone of this album consists of Jimmy Serret and Jean Noël Sardes cover the bass and drums respectively and firmly. Defining the rhythms are Nicolas Duval a.k.a Ninjah on the lead guiar and Lionel Chelliah a.k.a Ti Punk executing the percussions. The arrangements and instrumental path of the album were curated by the expertise of Nicolas.

Idantite is the first album release on Zanana Records, a recently-established music label representing and promoting Mauritius’ local music scene in respect of heritage and cultures. The album was recorded and mastered by Neil Combstock at The Studio; which along the music label, flows in the same vein of the @electrocaine collective.
