AFRO POP meets ZOUK LOVE is the theme of this new mix. It's a smooth ride, so it works as background music as well as for kizomba and zouk dancing. 

The aim was to put together some of the sweetest zouk-based and zouk-influenced songs from this year & the last couple of years. There are a couple of throwbacks as well. One again, the mix is very international and features songs by artists like Sauti Sol (Kenya) x India.Arie (USA), Philip Monteiro (Cape Verde) x Viviane Chidid (Senegal), Bahati (Kenya), Marioo (Tanzania), Otile Brown & Sanaipei Tande (Kenya), Nelson Freitas (Cape Verde) x Mikas Cabral (Guinea-Bissau), Nviiri The Storyteller (Kenya), Mad Ice (Uganda/Finland), Soraia Ramos (Cape Verde)...

Zoukous Makossa is the sound and feeling of the Francophone African diaspora in the 80's and into the '90s, from Douala, Kinshasa, Abidjan and Pointe-à-Pitre to Paris, Brussels, New York City. Volume II is a fast-paced, all vinyl mix of some tunes that I've been spinning a lot in the past year or so: a non-stop TGV train of guitars, drum machines and animation. Mini Diblo Dibala tribute up top, "Diblo Dibala il est malade!"
