Beatkozina

À propos

Beatkozina is a dynamic electronic/world music duo blending the vibrant sounds of London and Marrakech. Formed by Mehdi Naami (DJ, producer, multi- instrumentalist) and Gregory Jouandon (jazz drummer, pianist, producer), the project bridges deep electronic grooves with global rhythmic traditions. Drawing from Afro-rooted rhythms, North African influences, jazz, and Afro-Latin textures, Beatkozina forges a distinctive sound—where minimalism meets tribal energy. Their music flows between Afro House, deep electronic, and percussive world music, shaped by intricate Moroccan rhythms and sophisticated musicality. Their releases on acclaimed labels like Compost Records, Nulu, and The Djoon Experience have gained support from heavyweights such as Louie Vega, Osunlade, Jimpster, St Germain, and DJ Spen. Their track “Crossing Paths” (with Cee ElAssaad) hit #3 on the Deep House Traxsource Top 100, cementing their rising status in the global scene. Recently performed at the Four Directions Festival in Marrakech alongside Jihad Muhammad, Boddhi Satva, Johnny Reckless, and Pete BBE. Beatkozina performs as a duo (live/DJ hybrid sets), with Mehdi also playing solo and holding residency at House of Groove by Rehab London. Whether in clubs or on festival stages, Beatkozina delivers a deep, percussive, and culturally rich experience—connecting dancefloors through sound, identity, and rhythm.
