Née en Algérie, Djazia Satour puise dans les racines musicales de sa terre natale et mélange le chaabi de l’Alger des années 50, les rythmes ancestraux des bendirs, les mélodies raffinées du banjo et du mandole avec les basses et les claviers analogiques d’une pop chaude et savoureuse.

Le son est brut, presque palpable, tandis que les mélodies chantées en arabe d’une voix puissante, telles des hymnes, sonnent comme un appel irrésistible vers un autre monde. L’authenticité de cette artiste rafraichissante, doit autant à l’invention qu’à la tradition.

Nouvel album, automne 2018.

English: Djazia Satour takes from her heritage and her childhood in Algiers to create warm and flavourful pop music. A mix of 1950s Chaabi with the tribal rhythms of bendirs, elegant melodies from a banjo or a mandole, with deep bass and energetic analog keyboards.

Her life and career in France started at the end of the 90s as a backup vocalist for the band Gnawa Diffusion, before becoming the voice of MIG, the electro/trip hop band that made her famous (MIG EP, 2001 – Dhikrayat LP, 2004 – Yamatna LP, 2006).

In 2010, Djazia self-produced her first solo EP, Klami, and in 2014 her first album Alwane.

In the warmest days of 2018, Djazia Satour will release her second album. With a raw sound and feel, this new LP showcases the power of her voice and hymn-like melodies that invite us to join her in a brand new world. A world where tradition nourrishes the authenticity of a modern, creative and refreshing artist.
