Côte d’Ivoire is KORIA GR’s second release and a particularly important one. The track reached #32 on the Traxsource Afro House Top 100, showing a strong connection with listeners who appreciate genuine, authentic sound.
The heart of the song lies in its percussion. Recorded live at Torpedo Productions Studio in Paris, a percussionist from the Ivory Coast performed traditional rhythms from his homeland. This is where the track’s name comes from — a respectful nod to its cultural roots.
The release comes via Aafro Madiba Records, a label that supports music deeply connected to African heritage and Afro House culture.
The person behind this is Nikos Koriatopoulos, also known as KORIA GR, a DJ and producer with almost 30 years in electronic music, in Greece and around Europe. He started in the mid-90s with the Greek electronic band Total Chaos, releasing LPs and singles.
