Born in the dark streets of Cairo, grown to the unforgettable forests of Santa Esmeralda, spending its teen years in Bombay and Tangier markets, mature into the deep spacey Jungle of Ghana we proudly present you a new label from the land of the pyramids: SHANGO RECORDS invites you to an unheard world music psychedelic trip: like through a colorful kaleidoscope we will melt down Indian and Pakistani Vibes, Arab-Tek and Oriental groovy vibes, Afro-Beat rhythms n' pieces, Cumbia Tropicana flavors and cosmic Ghetto-Latin vibes into forbidden sounds of frenzied electronic dancefloor rituals. Outside traditional paths these driving grooves and polyphonic structures take the adventure seeking dancer to Dionysian highs and places never been before.

The Huli are believed to have laid down roots in Papua New Guinea as far back as 45,000 years ago. Most of the Huli people are from the town of Tari, and many still live according to the traditional ways. “The Huli men are famous for their unique custom of creating and wearing impressive wigs decorated with feathers. They also wear bright facial paint in red, yellow and white — colors originally chosen to strike fear into their enemy in times of conflict. Nowadays, they usually wear them to sing and dance.”. The so-called Wigmen make their wigs out of their own hair and weave them with feathers from the island’s 700 bird species. Each feather carries its own symbolic meaning (such as strength and courage). “The forest in which we live is essential to us. It provides for all our needs, it is sacred, and I would do anything in my power to protect it,” writes Mundiya Kepanga, a 53-year-old Huli Wigman, “I hope that by helping people to better understand my culture, they will also respect our environment.”                                                                                                                    This is the new Shango Records compilation entitled “A Wigmen Town Called Tari”. Fifteen beautiful tracks to fall in love with. These tracks will seduce you with beauty and destroy you with venom.

Jericho (Maqam Bayat)

Mad with passion - Soaring Yarghul phrases, Moroccan Berber beat meet sweeping Osmose synth lines and Arab strings, building midway into a powerful, trance-like intensity.

Mahabula (Maqam Bayat)

Yarghul (reed instrument) and strings bloom from mystical hush into fiery Debka rhythms, charged with shimmering Osmose Synth layers.

Gogumagog (Maqam Huseini)

Lenny Ben Basat is one of Israel’s most prominent musicians, composers and record producers and the owner of the LennyTunes production house, located in the old city of Jaffa.
Throughout his extremely successful international career, Lenny has developed his unique musical blend, from the traditional Maqam of Arab music and beats of Africa to the urban sounds and techniques of drum machines, analog synths and vinyl beat chopping. 
In 2019,  driven by his passion to infuse Middle Eastern rhythms, melodies and instruments with contemporary techniques, Lenny released the "The Bellydance Superstars" album, featuring the soulful music and oriental vibes of the 60s and 70s clubs of his hometown Jaffa. The LP album was created with the original instruments of the period, played through a time vortex from the future. The album is a love letter to his city. 
For the last 20 years, Lenny has created well known long play records & EPs, live shows and film scores. Among his latest works, Lenny composed and produced together with Riff Cohen the track “MIŞ MIŞ” which gained more than 181 million views on Youtube and Riff’s best seller “J'AIME”  and ”A PARIS”. Lenny produced the album “Sensitive Hours” for Avishai Cohen and together they worked on the score for the French film “LE SENS DE LA FÊTE”’  for the blockbuster directors Olivier Nakash and Eric Toledano.
