Tonight’s episode is an hour-long special of super-duper-ultra rare Nigerian disco. Between 1979 and 1983, Nigeria experienced an economic boom, the return of democracy after years of military dictatorship, and a lot of money flooding into the country. The music industry benefited from this and produced some amazing music. Many foreign record labels set up shop in Lagos because it was the place to be! The nightlife, the talent pool and the huge market made it conducive for music making.

This mix takes you on a journey of deep disco cuts of synth-pop, funk and boogie from that era.
