MR BONGO
Jamz Supernova Presents - Dance Around The World Jamz Supernova Presents
BBC 6Music radio presenter, DJ and Future Bounce label head, Jamz Supernova, presents a new compilation Dance Around The World on Mr Bongo.
An evolution of her radio show, event series and Bandcamp community under the same name, this compilation plots a globe-spanning day-into-night voyage across 16 tracks, from artists, countries and scenes that have shaped Jamz' musical worldview. Each track, many of which are exclusive to this comp, tells a story of heritage and roots, whilst pushing boundaries and pioneering new sounds in their respective regions. From the Reunion Island to Latin America, East Africa to the Caribbean and Pacific, it's a 24-hour cycle moving from downtempo to dancefloor.
The concept of Dance Around The World began in the summer of 2025 but has ultimately been a part of Jamz' journey in music since the beginning. At the centre of it is her 15-year career as radio presenter - her tastes evolving from the early days on Reprezent Radio, to a 1Xtra residency and now a Saturday daytime show on BBC 6Music. There has always been a desire to highlight music from underrepresented scenes to new audiences.
Far removed from algorithmic influence, each scene, each artist is one that Jamz has a personal connection to. Split across two sides, marking two interconnected moods, the Day side features sun-soaked sounds rooted in activism, storytelling and heritage. Bringing together Equiknoxx founder Gavsborg and dub educator, Riddim Writer, Groundsound's rhythmic yet deeply powerful track 'Bittersweet' kicks things off. It sets the scene and intention for the compilation whilst starting a percussive thread that runs through every track. Elsewhere, the all- female Maloya group SIMANGAVOLE collaborate with SOA RAVELO for a hypnotic, communal song that hits the spirit. Moving through the Day you'll find a love letter to the sounds of Cape Town from Esa Williams, beats-heavy, garage rock courtesy of Rio's Orua, and a fusion of traditional Guadeloupean grooves with contemporary jazz and hip hop via Celia Wa. Venturing out to Tumaco on the Pacific side of Colombia, Verito Asprilla serves up a future-facing, reggaeton heater, 'Quiero Ser Buena'. Night falls, the rhythms get rowdier the basslines get heavier. Jako Maron's electronic remix blends his Reunion Island roots with a chugging synth soundscape. Jus Now, the duo of Trinidadian percussionist Keshav and UK producer Sam Interface, showcase their club- driven global sound melding UK bass influences with a Caribbean drum- heavy flavour. Sam then joins Jamz for 'Tan Toddy' a fierce dancehall production seen through the lens of UK bashment, with Lateena on the mic and Moses Boyd on the drums. 'Sin Africa' is another highlight, with A&R led by Jamz. Brenda's pumping, heads- down Latin club sound marrying with a deeper message to Diva Cruz's lyrics. This thread permeates many of the tracks. "Almost everybody on this compilation has been touched or altered in some ways by colonisation. We choose joy and we choose to celebrate what we have and what we've done, but we can't ignore that there has been a colonised existence", Jamz states.
More than a compilation, this is a sonic celebration connecting cultures, scenes and perspectives. Each artist and each track expanding boundaries and borders whilst honouring what has come before them.
A globe-spanning voyage with the day side taking in sun-soaked sounds rooted in activism and storytelling and the night featuring more club- focussed, heavier rhythms.
