Jokkoo with/con Miramizu, Rasheed Jalloul & Sabine Salamé
Jokkoo is an art and music collective based in Barcelona. It was born out of the need to investigate and disseminate the most contemporary and futuristic electronic sounds of the African continent and its diaspora, engaging with ally communities worldwide. They create connections and spaces to give a platform to dissident aesthetics and narratives. The collective is formed by six different personas with shared goals, Baba Sy (aka pasaporteman), Maguette Dieng (Mbodj), Oscar Taylor (Opoku), Nicolas Beliot (Mooki6), Ismäel N´diaye (B4mba) and Miriam Camara (TNTC).
