Sales Information:

VULKANDANCE grew into a family of dedicated members and followers with the same idea in mind: to put more love and fun into dance parties.
In the same year, Nomad started a now 750-strong VULKANDANCE Facebook group for like-minded crate-diggers around the globe that is focuses on the rarest, longest forgotten global dance music .

While the VULKANDANCE family grew, NOMAD¹s old friend and fellow musician DIRK LEYERS joined forces with him to work on re-interpretations of some of their favourite African, Island Funk and Cumbia rhythms and turn them into modern electronic dance tracks. DIRK LEYERS' long musical history in house music ­ as part of the project CLOSER MUSIK and as a producer for numerous artists in the genre ­ and his skills as a studio engineer added beautifully to NOMAD's rare and obscure library of amazing rhythms and gave birth to the project AFRICAINE 808.

After successfully testing their tunes at the VULKANDANCE parties and
getting great feedback and airplay from DJ friends and colleagues of all
colours ­ like Tim Sweeney, Will Speculator, Zernell Gillie, Analog Africa
Soundsystem, Beppe Loda, Hunee, Dr. Dunks, Munk, Justus Koehncke, Tropical Jeremy, Invisible City Sound System, Mop Mop, etc. ­ it was time to release.

Fortunately, within the closer circle of the VULKANDANCE network we
unearthed the potential to form a company with people who have years of
experience in the music business, including the horror of every fragile
artistic soul ­ accounting and rights ­ which is why it was such a short step to officially found VULKANDANCE RECORDS on 21 December 2012 (the day the Mayan Calender ended).

As a record label, VULKANDANCE works the same way as the parties do: We try to present appealing, amazing rhythms and music with a twist, wrapped in nice artwork. The range and styles of music are the same as what we play in the clubs: from African tribal drums to disco to Cumbia...from organic to
electronic
