“Nekuda is an Excellent album. It is the second consecutive album that Neguse has recorded with the excellent producer Itamar Ziegler. The new album is clearly different from its predecessor, both in its broader, more spacious sound and in its writing, which looks inward more than outward. At the same time, the two albums are part of a continuous journey, starting with the collaboration between Neguse and Ziegler, which has propelled Neguse to the upper levels of local hip-hop scene”.

״Two decades since they formed in New York City and over ten years since their last album, Tel Aviv based quartet Shotnez are back with Dose a Nova, an album of 10 exhilarating jazz filtered jams, with vibrations indebted to tuareg desert blues, Ethiopian-jazz, 1950's Afro Cuban recordings, surf- rock and folk from across the East Mediterranean basin.״

Solo albums:
“A treasure chest of tinkly instrumentation, dexterous acoustic play, poetic lyricism and strong pop melodies, the album is a slightly zany experience, with the song writing and arrangements rarely treading any kind of obvious ground"

Hassan Ben Jaafar and Friends - Nas Al Hal
"This album, featuring Innov Gnawa’s frontman, came together over relatively spontaneous sessions after he was invited to collaborate with Israel/New York trio Balkan Beat Box. It’s an unusually soulful set of Gnawa tunes. The music is far more laid-back than normal, and often veers into a funkier rhythms and inflections more closely associated with Malian desert blues. Exploring the music’s multi-faceted heritage from both above and below the Sahara, this is one of the most user-friendly (and varied) of Gnawa albums." (The Bandcamp Daily)

SWORD AND SANDALS - Live Video
"At once noir and otherworldly, the elegantly gritty ensemble plays evocative, cinematic music the conjures images of everything from seedy backrooms to stark landscapes."

"Part Mingus, part Morricone with a savage wit..." Lucid Culture
Instrumental swampy groove band started in downtown NYC in 2004, now it's back in it's Mediterranean rebirth.
"Shotnez has burst onto the scene and thrown down the gauntlet for all those Alternative-Punk-Jazz-Rock-Electronica fans out there. These guys are not about to be pinned down to a single music style. They have created their own distinct brand, and that is Shotnez."
