The acclaimed and highly sought-after LP by Hailu Mergia and
the Walias, Tche Belew, an album of instrumentals released in
1977, is perhaps the most seminal recording released in the
aftermath of the 1974 revolution. The story of the Walias band is
a critical chapter in Ethiopian popular music, taking place during
a period of music industry flux and political complexity in the
country. 
Hailu Mergia, a keyboardist and arranger diligently working the
nightclub scene in Addis Ababa, formed the Walias in the early
1970’s with a core group of musicians assembled from prior
working bands. They played Mergia’s funk- and soul-informed
tunes, while cutting 45rpm singles with various vocalists.
While the Walias performed at top hotels and played the
presidential palace twice, their relationship with the Derg regime
was complex, evidenced by the removal of one song from the
record by government censors.
Decades later, Hailu Mergia was surprised to see the album
fetching more than $4,000 at online auctions (it helped that the
most popular of all Ethiopian tunes “Musicawi Silt” appeared on
the record). Now everyone has the chance to listen again—or
for the first time—to this timeless pillar of Ethiopian popular
music.

ROBOSONIC & PURPLE DISCO MACHINE - "Viel Fein" - Nurvous

we came across this great mix by caykh recordings of the golden days of somali music. sounds from before the war, songs from before the beautiful city of mogadishu became a battle ground for 2 decades. 

"This Mix of 70's and 80's Somali sound is a rich blend of traditional Somali folk music infused with Western funk, rock and reggae and a touch of Indian, Arabic and African flavors.

There are hardly any proper releases of this soulful sound of guitar, synthesizer and drums. I spent some months finding, compiling and editing rips of TV and live recordings on old VHS tapes and radio broadcasts to cassette tapes and here is what I got. Enjoy! With love from Mogadishu."

Jakarta Radio 009: Somali Disco Mix - "Au Revoir, Mogadishu"

Wonderwheel Recordings — purveyors of the worldly, dancefloor-focused jam — are warming up the coals for their next 12". And what an infectiously airy cross continental collaboration it's proved to be.  Italian producer DJ Khalab, whose productions have already found their way onto Clap! Clap!'s Black Acre, teams up with Mali's prolific Baba Sissoko for a bout of minimal, Afro-influenced electronica. The Ibibio Sound Machine remix of "Tata" manoeuvres in funk territory, lathering Baba Sissoko's iconic vocals atop a contagious bassline underbelly.

DJ Khalab & Baba Sissoko "Tata (Ibibio Sound Machine Remix)"

VINYL RELEASED 23rd Oct 2015

We are more than ten releases in here at Africa Seven. It has been a wild ride... It was eight months ago that we launched our label and released our debut release the Compilation “Africa Airways 01: Funk Connection”.  It did better than we ever imagined and we had to repress the darned thing twice... So predictably for a follow up we humbly present you with “Africa Airways 02: Funk Departures 1973-1982”.  We have unashamedly stuck to the formula of our debut; keeping the funk deep and the groove pan-African.  Heading straight for the afrobeat, dance-funk jugular.  

We open up Volume Two with an absolute corker... “Na Real Sekele Fo Ya” from Cameroonian-in-Paris Pasteur Lappe.  Produced by Jacob Desvarieux of Kassav fame,  this track is an instant grabber;  Think of the Blockheads “Rhythm Stick” goes Afro chant with deep, soulful moog grooves and on-point brass stabs.  Next up is M’Bamina an Italian / Ivory Coast band who swing things heavy with “Kilowi Kilowi”.  Sweeting strings, funky bass lines wrapped around a late 70s style disco groove.  

Ekambi Briallant is next up with his floor tappingly catchy afro soul “Aboki (Mon Copain)”, produced by one of our favorite producers Slim Pezin.   To round off the A-side of the vinyl we present the first outing from the Makeba family. Here the (sadly prematurely departed) Bongi Makeba, daughter of “Mama Africa” Myriam Makeba, shows the world just what an amazing artist she would have developed into.  Bongi wrote a fair number of her mother’s tracks in her later years and “Don’t Do It” shows us what true talent for the song she was blessed with.  The track her powers along with wah-wah guitar and masterful alto sax.  A real treat. 

Friend of Africa Seven and Cameroonian native Jo Tongo opens thing up on Side B.  Jo now lives in New York but back in the 70s he was part of the Fiesta label collective who were cranking out great records in Paris. “Piani” is his purest dancefloor moment, here again in full glory. 	Next up we bend our African remit ever-so slightly and head off to Holland for a James Brown style fuelled funk stomper “Relax.. Before Doing Sex” from Oscar Harris and his crew.  Its big, its bold, its brassy…..  It’s fun.
 
The power trio of Bozambo are next up. Between them they have released over 12 solo LPs and here together with “Get it On The Music” they power through with a keyboard/synyh driven afro-funk groove years ahead of its time… made in 1978 but sounding like 1984.   Misse Ngoh is one great guitarist and a masterful adaptor of the Makossa rhythms of his native Cameroun.  The title track from his Esperance 1979 LP “Tata Ngoh” mixes in his trademark rhythms and grooves with slap bass and striking brass lines. One heck of a catchy song too. 

We round off the compilation with the Queen of Queens, Myriam Makeba.  Possibly / probably the most influential female musician to come out of Africa… ever.  “Mama Africa’s” biography is awe-inspiring and vast, but very hard to summarize in a few sentences... so please check it out for yourself.   From breaking the African sound in the West, to the obsessively catchy “Pata Pata” to the influential, focal role she played in helping bring an end to Apartheid in her native South Africa.  There are many tracks to feature from Myriam but we aren’t about hits here at Africa Seven.  Being the crate diggers we are,  we thought the best way we could honour the lady was to dig the crate even deeper and go with the most obscure Myriam track we could find. “Toyota Fantasy” was recorded during her exile years spent in Guinea with the Esperance team as a one off promotional 7” single giveaway release. Be aspirational, as the lady says. 	  

We hope you enjoy your flight with African Airways 02.  We hope to be fuelling up an aircraft with some psychedelic propellant for volume 3 sometime in 2016... at a vinyl store near you.

DJ Khalab & Baba Sissoko: Music To... Urbanise Your Tribes To

Release Date:  8th Jan 2016

Tala AM (or Tala Andre Marie to give him his full and proper name) was born in Bandjoun in Cameroun in 1950.  Tala's life initially wasn't easy, he becomes blind at an early age and has lost both his mother and father by the age of 12.  He then went on to make his first guitar by hand and form his first band "The Rock Boys" by the age of 17. Shortly after he meets the powerhouse of Camerounian music at the time Manu Dibango, a pivotal moment.   With help, he re-locates to Paris and signs a contract with Fiesta Records.  The first fruit of those labours is his debut album "Hot Koki".

Fast forward to 1974 and the famous "Rumble In The Jungle" fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman.  The story goes a little something like this... At an accompanying musical event we find James Brown and Tala AM.  JB Hears Hot Koki and creates a remarkably similar sounding track "The Hustle" (check it out side by side if you have the time). Tala sued... and won.

And so to the remixes... The package is spearheaded by the title track  is "Hot Koki" ;  a powerhouse of funk guitar, soul and infectious afro rhythms. 

First up on the remix treatment we take a sly trip to the NYC where white-hot talent J Kriv is on the edit tip.  J Kriv recently was voted number 7  Nu Disco talent by Resident Advisor.  JKriv (aka Jason Kriveloff) strips back thing back to the groove for destination dancefloor, a real treat.    Next up we set sail to London for hot new electronic and broken beat talent EVM128 and his quirky alternate version.  Luke EVM adds left field stabs, jazzy percussion and his custom sound to the bombastic brass, swinging basslines and all out groove of Hot Koki of the original .

We stay in London for Ben Hauke who takes things on a house groove tip before heading to Leeds (UK) for Peza who beefs up the bass and groove to "Black Gold".  Layers of picked and choppy guitar and bags of big swinging bass. 

To round off the package we also (and quite rightly so) add the all important original from 1974. 

Interested in finding some more about Tala AM... then check out the LP "African Funk Experimentals 1975 to 1978" out on Africa Seven.

Kossou Houechehoun - Adobin me win wan (Folklore Guê from Benin, 70s) #muzzicaltrips #folklore

It is late 1972. Six emigres from Congo, Benin and Cameroon find themselves in Pavia, near Milan in Italy. Sharing a passion for music and dance rooted in African culture they form a band called M’Bamina (“Lightning”) they and stage their dance and music show in Le Rotonde di Garlasco.  Two years of hard work and gigging follow before they make their first album “African Roll”, released in 1975. 

Following a European tour in 1976 then find themselves performing in Cameroon for a landmark concert at the Stade de Yaounde with Claude Francois (French Pop star and the writer of the original version of Sinatras My Way) and African music legend Manu Dibango.  As it often happened in the 70s when talented ambitious bands met Manu Dibango, a move to France and a record deal with Fiesta Records (Decca) soon followed.

In Paris 1977 the band find themselves opening for a James Brown's concert Au Pavillon de Paris.   By now the band is a well-oiled machine they have honed their live shows and sound by distilling a pure and fresh blend of R.& B, Rumba, Afro-Cuban, Funk and traditional African.  M’Bamina then hook up with  French producer Philippe Brejean to record their second album “Experimental” in Sysmo studios (a hot bed of album activity and French production music at the time).   The results capture the band at the peak of their powers.    

The core of M’Bamina was made up of Samba Ngo (guitar and vocals), Antoine Nkouka Batenda (guitar and vocals), Bernard Bifuanibo (bass), Jean-Marie Bolangassa (percussion), Anselme Tambakassa (congas) et Ligali Ali Amidou (percussion and vocals). The band would go on to make 2 further albums before disbanding in 1985.
