NGASA NGASA

NGASA NGASA 
is a multicultural project founded by the drummer/producer/historian Matteo Nocera, which mixes in a contemporary way the folk rhythms and melodies of southern Italy and the Western Mediterranean with others such as afrobeat, funk and jazz modal.
Between Mediterranean funk, song, trans tribal rhythms, their sounds come from the meeting between Napoli and the south of Italy, as a place of departure, and Marseille as a welcoming land.
NGASA NGASA in Neapolitan means “strike! » or “insist! “. We are used to using this word as an exhortation among ourselves, in the most difficult moments; over time it therefore became our group name. And as travel characterizes our lives and music constantly shapes our minds, we imagine NGASA NGASA as a proud ship that has set sail, with a crew on board and a cargo rich in captivating rhythms and sounds. Our departure point was Naples and our host country was Marseille.
