Soulico – SOS (feat. Pigeon John & Ceci Bastida)

Biography
Circa 2000, the four members of Soulico were just friends that loved records, liked to party and had stockpiled massive collections of rare and unique Middle Eastern vinyl. DJs Sabbo, Rob, Shimmy Sonic and Wido would sometimes spin together, but mostly alone, rocking beats that masterfully fused hip hop, reggae and dancehall to Israeli folk and disco from the 1970’s.
The excitement surrounding their eclectic sound was more akin to that of the underground club scene budding in Europe than anything the Middle East had experienced prior. They decided to throw a party as a group, pooling the genius of four radical DJs into one red-hot set. But what to call it?
Soulico.
It was the party to end all parties in Tel Aviv, but the DJs already had other plans. Sabbo traveled to Jaimaca to work with Stephen and Damien Marley while Wido joined the staff of VP Records in NYC. Meanwhile, Rob and Shimmy Sonic spun as a duo, perfecting the base for what would eventually solidify the group as a whole. Sabbo and Wido’s return brought weekly parties, fresh new tracks and the very first Masabacha mixtape - all united under the Soulico moniker.
A handful of madcap mixtapes and countless parties later, Soulico was awarded Israel’s top DJ prize, driving their breakout radio hit and ringtone favorite “Lo Tzipiti” (a version of Tanya Stevens’ “It’s a Pity”) to the top of the charts.
