A crucial introduction to the 'King of Kikuyu Benga' and the first career-spanning retrospective of the incredible catalogue of the late, great Joseph Kamaru.

17 tracks that run the gamut from vibrant dancefloor chants with high life-esque guitars, to afro funk, drum machine and keyboard driven disco grooves, and folk style laments. The music is raw, immediate, danceable, and packed full of memorable hooks. The incisive lyrics range from protest songs to relationship advice. Joseph Kamaru was an incredibly popular figure in his native Kenya, connecting with everyone from high-powered politicians to the rural and urban working class, and his music deserves a much wider international audience.

Compiled in partnership with Joseph Kamaru's grandson, the sound artist KMRU.

The tracks have been carefully remastered from original tape transfers by Dubplates & Mastering in Berlin.

Sleeve designed by Karolina Kołodziej using original archive material from the Kamaru family vaults.

Extensive liner notes include essays by Kenyan academic Maina wa Mũtonya, music journalist Megan Iacobini de Fazio, and KMRU himself.

Joseph Kamaru - Kenya Kũrũngara (Remastered) - from Heavy Combination 1966 - 2007

Guest mix by Zlata aka @artificialdinner (Graz) - from min 60 onwards

Zlata is a sound artist and DJ based in Graz. In her practice she explores eerie, extreme sound environments and textures and incorporates those experiments in her dj sets too. They can best be described as a tightrope walk between moods, styles and rhythms. Zlata manages to combine dark noise, evocative soundscapes and rhythmic patterns to guide the floor in a flow of sound. She is a founding member of CMKK (Computermusik & Klangkunst) - a student community that organizes concerts of experimental electronic music and sound art in Graz.
