about

Fanfara Station will be back June the 24th with a brand new album
on Garrincha GOGO, a Garrincha Dischi’s sub label devoted to
world music contamination. The Band’s music is indeed mixing the
power of a brass band with the energy of the rhythms and the chants
of Maghreb and electronic music, an overwhelming dance party.
Fanfara Station are Marzouk Mejri, a Tunisian multi-instrumentalist,

Charles Ferris, an American Horn player and the Italian DJ/produ-
cer Marco Dalmasso aka Ghiaccioli e Branzini. “Boussadia”, the

new album, is the first chapter of a path that explores the cultures of
each member. Nord Africa is the first chapter, a voyage trough the
roots of the singer and percussionist Marzouk. He moved from
Tunisia to Napoli in the 90’s, where he worked with the most
important artist such as Daniele Sepe, James Senese, Eduardo De
Crescenzo, 99 Posse, Peppe Barra and many more up to his latest
collaboration on Nu Genea’s latest album.
“Boussadia” has been recorded in Tunisia in order to immerse and
breath the capture, capture the streets’ vibe and work with local

artists such as the rapper VIPA, a full immersion in the cosmopoli-
tan Tunis.

This work is deeply inspired by the Stambeli, the animistic music of
the Tunisian slaves. Boussadia is a Tunisian mask, a griot dress
with multi color clothes. The result is an album on a fine line in

between live and electronic music, enriched by a ritual and transcen-
dental feeling that ressembles the band’s live show, his energy and

hypnotic rhythms can lift the listeners and take it to a new dimen-
sion. Most of the tracks are created recording the band’s live

improvisations in order to capture the energy of their concerts.
