Afro-Funk, boogie and dancefloor prog banged out zealously by Rob ‘Roy’ Raindorf and an army band named Mag-2, from Ghana.

An insurgent blend of rock, rumba, soul and traditional grooves.
Including never-before-released recordings by legends like Thomas Mapfumo and Oliver
Mtukudzi, amongst many others.

Funkdafied, discofried, cosmic soca-boogie from 1984.  Let’s Get It Together is a monster.

The kind of expert, dancefloor-attuned compilation we take for granted from this label; with a generous fanzine-style booklet, stuffed with snaps and interviews. That opening track, though, is one step beyond… Bim!
LP back at last.

Thrilling funk from north Benin.

Bangers drawn from the bootleg compilation LPs — ‘pirata’ — which were all the rage in 1980s Mexico City, The hottest, rarest hits from Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and beyond — edited, tweaked, EQ-manipulated and pitched-down, to suit the sonideros running the city’s mobile soundsystems.

Hotly recommended, utterly ravishing Cubanismo by the great Amara Toure from Guinée Conakry. All ten releases, 1973 and 1980, starting with three sublime 7” singles recorded in Cameroon with the Black & White group, and ending with the LP recorded in Gabon, when AT was with the Orchestre Massako. 
‘Latin music, is it really foreign to us Africans? I don’t think so. Listen to the drums, to the rhythm. It all seems very close to us - it feels like it’s our own culture.’

The master accordionist of Colombia’s Musica Tropical movement.
