Mascarene Islands

Jamz explores how maloya and sega have been transformed by the club scenes of R茅union and Mauritius, with voices from Jako Maron, Dany猫l Waro, Reginald Omas Mamode IV and more.

In this episode, Jamz Supernova travels to the Indian Ocean to explore the sounds of the Mascarene Islands, focusing on traditional genres like maloya and s茅ga, which are rooted in histories of slavery, rebellion, and Creole identity. She learns how contemporary artists are pushing these percussive rhythms into new and innovative directions, from ritual gatherings called Kabar to the distorted, futuristic edges of 鈥渆lectronic maloya.鈥� Jamz speaks with legendary figure Dany猫l Waro, pioneering experimentalist Jako Maron, as well as Mauritius-based Babani Records and others from the region and throughout the diaspora.
