MONTREAL, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- From the ancient sands of the Ennedi desert to the heart of Montreal's electronic scene, Afrotronix is back—and he's rewriting the future. The award-winning artist, producer, and visionary Caleb Rimtobaye, originally from Chad and now based in Canada, has just released "Oda Ye," the pulsating first single from his upcoming album Future Tribe, arriving September 2025.

Produced with support from the African Parks Network, the Canada Council for the Arts, and the Ennedi Natural and Cultural Reserve, "Oda Ye" is more than a song—it's a journey. A future-facing electro tribal anthem steeped in ancestral wisdom, the track blends Afro house and Saharan electro with bold cinematic storytelling. In Caleb's own words: "Far in the futuristic desert of northern Chad, a man searches for his ancestral roots... When he places the dom upon his head, a powerful awakening ignites within him—ancient knowledge and ancestral energy surge through his being in deep, vibrant vibrations."

Afrotronix wears the DOM helmet not just as a fashion symbol, but as a living emblem of reimagined ancestral connection. That philosophy drives his musical mission: to unite past, present, and future through sound, dance, and digital art. With "Oda Ye," that connection is real, urgent, and electrifying.

Known for his genre-defying soundscapes that fuse Afro Tech, electric blues, Amapiano, Dubstep, and Nganja, Afrotronix is an icon of Afrofuturism who continues to break barriers. He's performed at over 130 major festivals worldwide, including WOMAD, Afropunk Paris, and JOVA Beach Party, and has collaborated with luminaries like Baaba Maal, Youssou N'dour, Mbongwana Stars, and Brian Kennedy (Rihanna, Chris Brown).

Afrotronix's artistry has earned him 18 global accolades, including Best African DJ at the All Africa Music Awards (2018), Best African Electro Artist (2019), and Best Artist at the Hollywood & African Prestigious Awards (2022). But his real triumph is cultural: Afrotronix is one of Chad's most internationally recognized musical exports, reshaping how the world hears Africa.

"Oda Ye" is the first sonic fragment of Future Tribe, a bold new album that imagines an inclusive world rooted in shared memory, healing, and groove. Afrotronix calls it "a dance of intersecting horizons and futures to be created together." It's music that dares to dream—and dance—beyond borders.
