Far from the usual clichés of the West Indian zouk, embark on a journey in the Guadeloupe of the 80s.

Digital Gwada (The digital sound of Guadeloupe in the 80s)

This week on Island Time brings back another offering from @AnalogDakarClub , a collective of DJ's passionate about analogue African popular music - vinyl records and tapes - which has been organizing parties in the Senegalese capital for two years.

The mix is a journey from the West Indies to West Africa, back and forth, A mix of rhythms and cultures where it's hard to say who inspired who. The African influences in the West Indies music is obvious but we also found a lot of Caribbean patterns inspired songs all over West African artists. And we added some rare and outstanding 7" just dug.

Another Night In Paradise

The first time I was introduced to Ethiopian music, I believe that, like many, it was through the "Ethiopiques" compilations of the French musicologist Francis Falceto. My first reaction was: "my god! From what planet does this music come from, it can't be from planet earth!" This sound is so unique, it makes you go from tears to dance... 

This music comes from the planet earth, it comes from Ethiopia. 

Very quickly, I had the desire to go there to see what made this sound so particular. In October 2017, I flew to Addis Ababa to spend three weeks there. I met some key people without whom my stay would not have been the same. Thanks to them, I could feel on the spot a part of the spirit of this music and also find some of these so rare records.

This mix is in memory of this trip, as a tribute to my friends and also to share the emotions that I have on this so unique music.

Thursday 15th of April 2016, Ecoutes au vert put up a special Tropical Party at Sameheads in Neukölln, Berlin. We were excited to welcome 3 awesome record collectors/djs from Canada, France and Switzerland, playing their first gig in Berlin. 

PHILIPPE NOEL & LES DIPLOMATES (aka MAMBO CHICK & JEAN TOUSSAINT) indeed brought the heat to Sameheads's low ceiling basement & people grooving in the bar above, playing only original 1950's to 1980's vinyls featuring the best Cumbia, Kompas, Guaracha, Gaitas, Son, Juju, Calypso, Afro-Colombian, Soukous, Afro Jazz, Sudanese music and much more... Killer melodies, heavy bass and irresistible rhythms that brought much love & smiles and got people dancing like crazy. 

This is the 2nd Part of the over 4 hours mix that was actually the 1st ever meeting of these 3 dedicated record collectors and awesome people. Prior to that, they had only exchanged about music and records via the internet. Surely, they will meet again behind the decks...
