‘We grew up with this traditional Gnawa music. It lives within us, flows through us. It is a deep joy to pay tribute to it by reinventing tradition without betraying it.’

Casablanca-born hybrid sound artist and producer Guedra Guedra - كدرة كدرة attunes with Cheb Runner شاب رانر for a remix of Gn-Awa, available exclusively on Nina Protocol right now.

An explorer of tribal polyrhythms and afrofuturistic club music, Guedra Guedra propels the ancestral rhythm into a hypnotic club territory — layering the original track with intricate patchwork textures and heavy low-end pressure.

Full EP TERRA TEMPO 2 - 80K by Cheb Runner out June 19 on Bandcamp: https://beatmachinerecords.com/terra-tempo-002

Across Terra Tempo 2, the 808 works from underneath, carrying traditional patterns into a tighter, more grounded form.

Rooted in Ahwach, Ahyad and Issmgan (Gnawa), the traditional rhythms move through repetition, breath and collective timing, shaped by bendir, qraqeb, guembri and nakouss, alongside hands, feet and jefna.

Reworked by Cheb Runner through electronic processing, the original skeletons remain intact, while their scale, weight and function shift, gaining density and physical impact.

Preservation and propulsion: this is where 80K finds its balance.

This month’s residency on Radio Raheem explores a sequence of unresolved forms. Hazy electronics, slow-burning ambient forms and off-centre rhythms drift into dubwise bass, low-end pressure and fractured club movement.
A late-hour flow where memory turns into rhythm, featuring Daykoda comeback single “Meridian”, out now on Beat Machine Records.
