Wah Wah 45s are proud to present the second in a series of remixes reinterpreting and celebrating
last year’s Echoes Of Resistance LP, the sophomore album from Afro-electronic duo Raz & Afla.
Raz Olsher and Afla Sackey converge worlds through their dynamic fusion of electronic and
traditional African rhythms, forging a path that is as bold as it is innovative. Rooted in their
deep-seated passion for music and cultural exploration, they seamlessly blend their distinct
musical backgrounds to create a unique sonic landscape that captivates audiences worldwide.

Raz Olsher is a visionary producer and composer known for his boundary-pushing electronic
soundscapes, bringing his expertise in blending diverse musical elements to the duo. His
meticulous attention to detail and penchant for experimentation form the foundation upon which
Raz & Afla's sound thrives.

Already part of the Wah Wah 45s family with his band Afrik Bawantu, Afla Sackey is an esteemed
percussionist and vocalist with roots tracing back to Ghana. He infuses the duo's music with rich
traditional African rhythms and melodies. Afla's virtuosity on percussion instruments and his soulful
vocals add a visceral, organic dimension to their compositions, creating a mesmerising auditory
experience that transcends cultural boundaries.

Together, Raz & Afla defy genre limitations, seamlessly weaving together electronic beats, Afrobeat grooves, and intricate percussive textures. Their music resonates with a deep sense of cultural authenticity and a forward-thinking approach that pushes the boundaries of contemporary music.

We Taya is a standout single from the Echoes Of Resistance LP. In its original form it’s an uplifting
and politically conscious piece with some serious dance floor bounce. Following on from the
anthemic and hugely popular remix of Shikor Shikor from BBC 6 Music’s Jamz Supernova and
Sam Interface, renowned London based DJ, producer and engineer Edward Upton, better known
as DMX Krew, tackles We Taya with aplomb and comes up with a life affirming Afro-disco/house
monster replete with vibrant guitars and sparkling keys.

““It was great fun to let out my jazzfunk teenage self and play some Rhodes piano and a synth
solo on this jam.” Edward Upton (DMX Krew)

With a growing discography that includes critically acclaimed releases and collaborations with
musicians from around the globe, Raz & Afla continue to carve out their place in the international
music scene. Their electrifying live performances are celebrated for their energy and the profound
connection they forge with audiences, making every show a vibrant celebration of musical diversity
and unity.

We Taya (DMX Krew Remix) will be part of the Remixes Of Resistance album project, released
August 1st 2025.
