Ibibio Sound Machine
Fronted by Nigerian singer Eno Williams, Ibibio Sound Machine is a clash of African and electronic elements inspired in equal measure by the golden era of West-African funk and disco and modern post-punk and electro.
Ibibio Sound Machine were founded by Williams and Max Grunhard in 2013 with the idea of combining the unique sound of the Ibibio language that Eno spoke growing up in Nigeria with both traditional West African and more modern electronic musical elements. They linked up with Merge Records in 2017 for Uyai and returned with Doko Mien in 2019.
Ibibio Sound Machine and Hot Chip – fixtures of the London music scene, bound by a love for electronic dance music – recently recorded a new Ibibio Sound Machine single called “Electricity” at Hot Chip’s studio.
