As we approach Notting Hill Carnival this weekend, which is a celebration of Caribbean culture - We are excited to welcome London based DJ and actress @dalilakali to AZEEMA FM 🇯🇲 In this addition of our Global sounds series Dalila pays a spiritual homage to Reggae, its subgenres Dub and sound system culture which is reminiscent of her childhood and Jamaican culture. ‘Sound systems are a pivotal aspect of carnival here in the UK. Always on the side of the road, I often seek them out. I love the feeling of the baseline echoing in my chest as the sun beats down on my head. The pace is slower and the energy is powerful’ Head over to our website to read the full article, where Dalila talks about the affects colonialism had on the diversity of the Caribbean and her appreciation and love of music and world wide sounds 🔗 Images from Dalila’s Archive: Image 1: Me as a baby with my grandma holding me in Jamaica Image 2: My mum holding me on my first trip to Jamaica Image 3: My grandparents in London 1960’s Image 4: My mum and aunty as teenagers hanging outside their home in Clapton, 1970’s Image 5: My sister and I at Dunn’s River falls Jamaica Image 6: My mum and aunty playing instruments as part of the Salvation Army in the 1960’s Programmed by @jameelaelfaki #azeemafm #carnival #guestmix
