Déjame Así

Maite Hontelé - Perdón

Unearthed from the vaults of the North Pole, this “lost” disco/boogie record from 1977 finally sees the light of day. Elf Waves is a funky, glitter-soaked side project from the world of Christopher Kringle — a time when elves traded sleigh bells for sequins and rode the groove straight through Studio 54.

Thought forgotten for decades, the Lost Boogie Record captures the spirit of a hidden era: when the Kringle universe collided with the golden age of disco. Play it loud, dance like an elf, and relive the North Pole’s best-kept secret. This album will make more sense after Book #9 is released. There is a reason this album has never been seen by the public.

The good people at Music In Africa asked me to curate a list of electro music coming out of the Continent recently... given the constant flow of new sound, this is a pretty impossible task, so I went with a choice of 10 (plus one bonus) tracks that have hit my radar fairly recently, and that have been on regular rotation on the ElectrAfrique dancefloor. 

Check out the Music In Africa website for the full list and details on why I picked those songs:
