Name: Traditional Ethiopian Selection by quantic
Duration: 31 min 10 s
Description: This is a mix of folkloric and outer-regional music of Ethiopia, all 45s, records that I feel need to be heard. Less of breakbeats & wah wah and this time more of krar, claps, howling organs and trad melodies. For fans of previous mixes ‘Axum to Addis’ and ‘Addis Sheckla Explosion’.

Alègntayé (feat. Genet Asefa)

TERANGA BEAT proudly presents the ROYAL BAND de THIÈS in their first ever and entirely unreleased 1979 recording. Singers and composers JAMES GADIAGA & SECKA will guide you through the sweet melodies, wicked rhythms and vocal traditions of Senegalese music, in a fabulous performance that combines MBALAX with AFRO-JAZZ.

While many bands in the world claimed the title of “Pacesetters” none can stand next to ROYAL BAND de THIÈS. The 9-member band with its dynamite percussion and horn sections will twist you like tornado! Tracks like "HOMMAGE À MBAYE FALL" will take you on a musical journey to the cultural crossroads of Senegal, West Africa’s meeting point of European, Latin American and African musical traditions. This real-time, two-microphone recording gives the impression that the group is playing live in front of you, making it hard to believe it dates back 33 years ago!

The liner notes of the double gatefold LP and CD booklet include more interesting details, outlining JAMES's & SECKA's musical careers along with the past and present of the band. We hope you will enjoy!

Africa 45, number 10 - http://www.mrbongo.com/products/alemayehu-eshete-telantena-zare-girma-beyene-ene-negn-bay-manesh-7

A: Alèmayèhu Eshèté - Telantena Zaré

The second time Eshete - aka the Ethiopian James Brown aka Abyssinian Elvis - has appeared in the series to date. This time in jazzier form. Upbeat piano, guitar and distinctive vocals accompanied by tough but subtle drums.

Originally released on 7” on Amha Records AE 780 in 1974. Needless to say, it’s nigh on impossible to find.



B: Girma Bèyènè - Ene Negn bay manesh

Reminiscent of the great works of Mulatu, ‘Ene Negn bay manesh’ is a beautifully deep groover, featuring Beyene’s vocal - unusual for him; he usually recorded instrumentals - subtle guitar, organ and horn lines.

Originally released, once again, on Ethipion label Amha Records AE 210, in 1969.
