Bolla /Afrikan Basement – Downward Staircase EP (Joe Claussell Remixes) (Sacred Rhythm US) 12″ Blue Vinyl

Fresh from the critically embraced full-length LP/CD, Downward Staircase now arrives in a special remix release — answering the persistent calls from supporters of Joaquin “Joe” Claussell who have been demanding a 12” single. The wait is over.
Downward Staircase is an Afro-Jazz House composition crafted in a way only Joaquin himself can manifest. Layered with masterful percussion from a host of renowned players, the groove is both infectious and deeply rooted. The rhythm section drives with purpose, creating the perfect foundation for the stunning piano work of Joaquin’s longtime production partner and favored pianist. The result is a powerful Afro-dance journey — spiritual, percussive, and built to ignite dance floors wherever it’s played.
But that’s not all.
Also featured on this EP is another Joaquin Joe Claussell remix titled Kwelo, featuring Afro-dance originator Mr. Jephte Guillaume. A collaboration rich in heritage and forward motion, it further expands the sonic landscape of this release.
This project has been over a year in the making — a true labor of dedication and persistence. We’re incredibly excited for its release, and we know our loyal following shares that excitement. In many ways, it was your continued support that helped bring this record into existence.
