Mariah - 心臓の扉 (Shinzo No Tobira)

This major new release from the Greg Foat Group sees celebrated jazz quintet making the most of the acoustics of an ancient church, accompanied by a full ensemble of supporting musicians. The fourth album from the celebrated jazz combo will further delight Foat fans who have been consistently enthralled by the taste and finesse with which they execute their beguiling arrangements and instrumentation.

Last year, during the long, hot summer of 2014, a couple of tons of vintage studio gear were bundled into an ancient church on the charming and picturesque village of Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. There the centuries-old church organ was the centerpiece and the Group was accompanied a string quartet and woodwinds to create a musical style like no other. The resulting hauntingly sublime sounds need not only fill vaulted chapel ceilings, but our hearts and ears as well.

Recorded across three of the hottest days in summer, direct onto 1" tape and with all the rich, live analogue sound and the hallowed magnificence that church acoustics can bring, The Dancers at the End of Time features the classic Foat group with guesting local musicians and friends, and celebrates the summertime and beach ambience of living on the island.

• Recorded on vintage analogue equipment in an ancient church on the Isle of Wight
• Only 1000 vinyl LPs available with printed inner
• CD set with 4 page colour booklet + bonus track
• Only on Jazzman - all because WE DIG DEEPER!

DIGITAL ZANDOLI  "Biguine Inferno" by O.R.E.A

Milton: Mizik Nou from “Doudou Créole 12” (IBO Production – IBO 8403) - Compiled on Digital Zandoli. Licensed by Heavenly Sweetness - Compiled by Digger's Digest & Nico Skliris. 

It is under this English-sounding pseudonym that Patrick Saint-Éloi and Jean-Claude Naimro, eminent members of the band Kassav’, made one of their finest West Indian boogie zouk numbers. Although this Mizik Nou, which benefited from the expert ear of producer Dominique Blanc-Francart and was released as an ultra-limited edition EP, is one of the most keenly sought discs by collectors of French funk, it was never properly marketed as a dance hit! This compilation ought to swiftly right that wrong.

the air conditioned linen feels good against your skin while you wait for your brother and dad to wrap things up at Family Denim. Giulietta Boldrini winks and sends a soft smile your way. there's a slight unease to the muzak - you're not sure if you're at home in your me. theme songs from a life - a love - a party that you forgot / lost / took for granted...a homecoming all the same. the tease of so many aha moments forgotten right as they arrive - an invitation to be cozier and remember who you are. this is Haha Mart :~)

Disque La Rayé (60's french west indies Boo-Boo-Galoo) is our latest project curated by Digger's Digest and produced by Born Bad Record and will be out the 25th June. This 13 titles compilation gathers a selection of tracks sounding like a rather unorthodox créole interpretation of the nuyorican Booglaoo, stuck between the strong Yéyé influence coming from the french Metropole and the modern latin fusion emerging from Harlem.

Disque La Rayé (60's french west indies Boo-Boo-Galoo) snippets - OUT ON Born Bad Records

Oby Onyioha is a Nigerian singer and songwriter. She was born in Lagos and brought up in the eastern part of Nigeria. Her father was the Head of the Godian Religion. With its message of universal unity and its philosophy of “biri ka’m biri” (live and let live), Godaism seeks to bring harmony among the people of different religions in spite of their diversities. 

Raised in this philosophy, Oby Onyioha first burst onto the Nigerian music scene in 1981 with the album “I Want To Feel Your Love” (Time Records Nigeria) which was named after her hugely successful single of the same title and also includes the two-stepping, finger snapping song “Enjoy Your Life”, with classic strings and freedom love themed lyrics making it a motivational anthem one cannot resist to dance on. The debut album was a huge success and took the Nigerian music scene by storm, at a time when disco music was considered the exclusive domain of western artists.

ANDINA: Huayno, Carnaval & Cumbia - The Sound of the Peruvian Andes 1968-1978

A window into the full-blooded, captivating spirit of music from the Andes, ANDINA shines a fresh perspective on Peru’s multifaceted heritage. A co-release with Strut Records, the album is selected from records originally released between '68 and ‘78, upending clichéd ideas of Andean music and bringing to light the divergent, exciting traditions to have emerged from Peru’s strip of the iconic mountain range. Encompassing steady-grooving, Peruvian cumbia rhythms, transcendent folkloric harp recordings and Lima big band groups taking influence from their highland neighbours, it boasts a diversity that will appeal to fans of jazz and Latin as well as tropical-minded DJs and deep-digging collectors.

Tiger’s Milk Records is part of Ceviche and Andina, launched by award-winning Peruvian chef, DJ, music and art collector and restaurateur Martin Morales in 2012. It encompasses 4 award-winning London restaurants, a record label, an art gallery and works alongside a charity called Amantani.

In October 2017 Quadrille will publish the cookbook ANDINA: The Heart of Peruvian Food, by Martin Morales.

DIGITAL ZANDOLI 2  "Ban Di Fwam" by COCO FABERT

12" Vinyl released 16 March 2018.

Soundway Records presents the debut EP from The Mauskovic Dance Band – a heady, tropical blend of cumbia, Afro-Caribbean rhythms and space disco, culminating in a vibrant hypnotic groove destined for bustling dancefloors.

With each band member of varying heritage, the group draws inspiration from diverse genres: primarily Afro-Colombian styles such as champeta, palenque, cumbia and the picó soundsystem culture, as well as the Afro-Disco and No-Wave scenes in their current base of Amsterdam. The city’s hotbed of underground producers has also brought an electronic edge to the band, with vintage drum machines and synthesisers effortlessly melding with Afro-Latin rhythms and slick guitar riffs to create a contemporary sound rich with cultural influence.

Since its inception in 2013, Mawimbi founders have been expanding their knowledge of lesser known and rather undiscovered musical territories thanks to chance encounters with likeminded DJs/producers, who were kind enough to put them onto a good amount of under-the-radar tropical gems. 

Launched in 2017 and named after Mawimbi's bi-monthly radio show on Rinse France, the "Radio Mawimbi" compilation series is dedicated to unearthing vintage tropical gems in the form of free download edits and remixes by some of the most seasoned diggers and promising rookies of the tropical-enthusiast community! 

From deep, drum-heavy workouts to essential Guinea Bissau melancholy, through remixed Beninese afrofunk and vintage South African kwaito, this second installment features the editing and remixing work of Yeahman (Frente Bolivarista), LSD (Love Saves The Day), Déni Shain (Analog Africa), Umoja, Mawimbi, ATW (Around The World), Calisto, Turbo Boom-Boom (TBB) and Midnight Ravers.

Revenge (ft. Rutendo Machiridza)

A great compilation can open the gate to another world. Who knew that some of the most exciting Afro-funk records of all time were actually made in the small West African country of Benin? Once Analog Africa released the first African Scream Contest in 2008, the proof was there for all to hear; gut-busting yelps, lethally well-drilled horn sections and irresistibly insistent rhythms added up to a record that took you into its own space with the same electrifying sureness as any favourite blues or soul or funk or punk sampler you might care to mention.

Ten years on, intrepid crate-digger Samy Ben Rejeb unveils a new treasure-trove of Vodoun-inspired Afrobeat heavy funk crossover greatness. Right from the laceratingly raw guitar fanfare which kicks off Les Sympathics’ pile-driving opener, it’s clear that African Scream Contest II is going to be every bit as joyous a voyage of discovery as its predecessor. And just as you’re trying to get off the canvas after this one-punch knock out, an irresistible Afro-ska romp with a more than subliminal echo of the Batman theme puts you right back there. Ignace De Souza and the Melody Aces’ “Asaw Fofor" would’ve been a killer instrumental but once you’ve factored in the improbably-rich-to-the-point-of-being-Nat-King-Cole-influenced lead vocal, it’s a total revelation.

The screaming does not stop there, in fact it’s only just beginning. But the strange thing about African Scream Contest II’s celebration of unfettered Beninese creativity is that it would not have been possible without the assistance of a musician who had been trained by the Russian secret services to "find and destroy" enemies of the country’s (then) Marxist-Leninist president Mathieu Kerekou.

Already familiar to fans of the first African Scream Contest as a mainstay of ruthlessly disciplined police band Les Volcans de la Capitale, Lokonon Andre vanished in a cloud of dust at Ben Redjeb’s behest with a list of names and some petrol money, only to return a few days later having miraculously tracked down every single name he’d been given. The source of this Afrobeat bounty-hunter’s impressive people-finding skills - his training with the KGB - highlights the tension between encroaching authoritarian politics and fearless expressions of personal creative freedom which is the back-story of so much great African music of the 60s and 70s. Happily, in this instance, Lokonon was tracking the artists down to offer them licensing deals, rather than to arrest them.

Where some purveyors of vintage African sounds seem to be strip-mining the continent’s musical heritage with no less rapacious intent than the mining companies and colonial authorities who previously extracted its mineral wealth, Samy Ben Redjeb’s determination to track this amazing music to its human sources pays huge karmic dividends. Like every other Analog Africa release, African Scream Contest II is illuminated by meticulously researched text and effortlessly fashion-forward photography supplied by the artists themselves. Looming large - alongside Lokonon Andre - in the cast of biopic-worthy characters to emerge from this seductive tropical miasma is visionary space-nerd Bernard Dohounso, who laid the foundations for Benin’s vinyl predominance by importing and assembling the record players that would play the products of his Bond villain-acronymed pressing plant SATEL, a company that would revolutionise the music industry in the whole region.

The scene documented here couldn’t have been born anywhere else but in Benin, and the prime reason for that was Vodoun. It’s one of the world’s most complex religions, involving the worship of some 250 divinities, where each divinity has its own specific set of rhythms, and the bands introduced on the African Scream Contest series and other compilations from the region were no less diverse than that army of different Gods.
