The Funkees - Salam (Sibu & Joe Nagall edit)

Bandcamp

A club friendly version of one of my favorite tracks of one of my favorite musicians! Back in the days my father used to play this song a lot while driving the car and I have liked it since the first time I heard it. This song was recorded in 1984, one year before he released his biggest hit 'mario'. As founder of the band TPOK Jazz, which dominated Congolese music from 1956 until 1989, he is counted as one of the originators of the modern Congolese sound.

Newly minted French Afro-Disco Label Atangana Records returns with another Caribbean facing EP, this time reissuing a classic 1976 track from Guadeloupean artist Les Maxel’s. The freshly remastered Le Retour De Toto comes with two reworks on the B-side, both from label founder Deni Shain along with Papastomp.

After the warm welcome that was Atangana’s first release of Fédia Laguerre’s Divizion, many afro disco heads were keenly anticipating the release of EP number 2. Gaining plays from a wide variety of DJs including an appearance on UK legend Craig Charles’ Radio 6 music show, the Atangana format of classic remaster on the A-side and respectful remix on the B is proving a successful one. EP two shows a label that’s slowly growing in its reputation as a home for quality afro disco.

The A-side has everything you’d expect from a great afro disco track. Fantastic production, full bass lines, glistening trumpets and outstanding vocal performances. The track combines elements of Zouk, Latino and Calypso music into an intoxicating cocktail of pure tropical heat. The ear Atangnana has for a lost classic is impressive. Le Retour de Toto has everything you’d want from a rare find, discovered in a late night crate digging session. With particularly impressive brass work and an absolutely blistering keyboard break, the song will find a warm place in the heart of any true afro-latin aficionado.

The B1 and B2 provide wonderfully restrained and respectful reworks, with B1’s ‘Toto is Back (Déni Shain & Papastomp Rémix)’ gently beefing up the low end and stripping back elements respectfully for a leaner edit that will work lovely on any dancefloor. B2’s ‘Toto is Back (Déni Shain & Papastomp's Add Parts Only)’ further rework the track in a four-minute burst of congas and samples creating a powerful disco tool that will work just as well at the beginning of the night as it will at the end.

This is another fantastic release from Atangana and one that leaves us at Bolting Bits very excited for how this label continues to grow.

James Stewart - Cotounou EP

James Stewart is the host, resident DJ and co-promoter of monthly night “Black Atlantic Club” at Le Sucre in Lyon. Borrowing the term “Black Atlantic” from renowned scholar Paul Gilroy’s 1993 book, Stewart presents “black music” as a transnational, incredibly diverse cultural exchange. An avid lecturer on the subject and founder of the Blog Afrosouldescarga, he merges an intellectual approach with the musical and creative side of things: as an active conga player and percussionist, member of Voilaaa Sound System and showhost at Radio Nova. This EP is the work of of a mature and thoughtful musician, combining different musical influences at a high level of production. Alma Negra Records are proud to present James Stewart with his Cotonou EP!

"Cotonou’s 6/8 rhythm is inspired by the Chimurenga Music of Zimbabwe. Thomas Mapfumo is one of the musicians who popularized this music in the early 80`s to the world. The lyrics are from a poem I wrote during my first trip to Bénin, a land full of music, poetry & theatre. A land where I’ve travelled a lot. My friend Basile Olatunde gave me a great interpretation on this song, which I chose to be the title of my first EP. In memory of the great times I’ve spent in this country and the very important face-to-face encounter with my Brother Gauthier Marchais."

Isaac Birituro & The Rail Abandon •  Yesu Yan Yan (Village Cuts Remix) 
Kalba Remixed EP 

Having released the album Kalba to huge critical acclaim, Wah Wah 45s are now ready to unleash the next stage of this unique cross-continental project, fronted by Ghanain xylophonist Isaac Birituro and Leeds based sing-songwriter and Grammy nominated producer Sonny Johns, AKA The Rail Abandon. Their debut album caused something of a stir this year, with Gilles Peterson, Cerys Matthews and many more showing it the love it deserves. Even though the album has plenty of club friendly moments, the label decided to let some of their favourite producers give you their own interpretations of this landmark album for Wah Wah 45s.
So up stepped rising stars of the tropical scene, Village Cuts, to deliver a typically uptempo and life - affirming re-work of Yesu Yan Yan; the erstwhile Innocent Sorcerer from Poland, Envee, to give the same cut a more Afro-disco feel; Hong Kong bass worriers Blood Wine or Honey to rework So Ma into a monstrous dance floor destroyer; and Singapore based Kaye from the mighty Darker Than Wax with his clever re-rub of Nye Fo Chen that’ll put you in a proper jazz dance trance

For bookings please send an email to: terts@live.nl

Inspired by the African cassette tapes from my father, I started playing African Disco and Funk in Amsterdam in 2010. After traveling in different continents, I started experimenting with sounds from all over the world. Where I used to play a bit more uptempo, nowadays I am focussing on a deeper and more atmospheric sound. Blending different genres and tempos is something that is appealing to me. From Nigerian funk to Amazon tribe music, everything is possible.
