Trepanado is head honcho behind the multimodal brasilian powerhouse "Selvagem"; party series, record label and former DJ duo together with Millos Kaiser. The two have since parted ways and Augusto now runs everything by himself, putting out killer after killer. For 591mins., Trepanado stays true to his roots, starting on the jazzy, balnearico side of things, moving to the street soul brasil territory and taking a turn on the wild side towards the end (his own words). We're excited to have him contribute to this last series of carefully curated mixes, 2 hours that make for a conciliatory end with summer here on the Northern hemisphere. Enjoy!

Took the short journey from Utrecht to Leiden to visit the family over at Maxi Radio! Once again I had a blast meeting them all and enjoying the wonderful space they have over there. This set is a reflection of that I hope. I opened the schedule so started off nice and soft with some soothing soul before working through plenty of boogie. Slowly bringing in the four to the floor deep and garage house, finally ending with some freestyle and more synth-laden funk. 

It's 2 hours so hope you enjoy and tracklist is over on my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bevangosling/

Deuxième passage de l'italien @josemanueldisco sur nos ondes pour une heure de grooves obscurs et ralentis aux accents 80s dont il a le secret.

It is a great source of pride and pleasure for us to realise how incredibly diverse the spectrum of this series is, and here we are not only speaking of its musical content but also the places that provide us with this wonderful collection of guests we hold so dear. This is why it certainly shocked us to realise that one of these locations, the same that has given us all so much aural delight and cherished dancefloor memories, is somewhat underrepresented  thus far. Schland dwells deeply in our hearts as much as we have a vast contingent of friends and acquaintances who found a new home there in the past years, so it struck us as somewhat weird and a tad embarrassing that we had so few of its natives at the masthead. But the talent we invited for this edition will try to make up for some of this deficiency as we bring in Balearic Banana, the brainchild of Zwei Freunde who bonded over their shared passions of digging and dancing to the cornucopia of rhythms encompassed by both that mysterious and malleable concept and its guiding principle based on freedom of format and open-mindedness that we both apply to our endeavours, one that is used here to its utmost meaning to create a fantastic mélange of whatever goes into the mix.

This Is What I Live For

The Wamdue Kids - In My Soul (3c Deep Mix)

Available from https://www.mrbongo.com/products/african-dances-vinyl-lp-cd

First official reissue of the extremely rare full-length album by Lagos-based bandleader Shina Williams. Clean copies of the original currently sell for up to £500.

The record was born in 1979 when Shina put Biddy Wright, Fred Fisher, Saliu Alabi, Prince Bola, Tutu Shoronmu, Tunde willimas and several other decorated Nigerian musicians – who played with the likes of Fela Kuti, SJOB Movement, Sonny Okoson, King Bucknor amongst others – together to record. The result is ‘African Dances’, a timeless fusion of afrobeat, electronics, boogie and disco.

Includes his most well-known song, ‘Agboju Logun’ that Williams knew was ground breaking – “I want to show the whole wide world that Africa is alive with modern musicians to reckon with anywhere,”. This album version is a different mix to the two-track 12” that came out under on Earthworks, Rough Trade in 1984.

Official Mr Bongo reissue. Replica original artwork. Licensed direct from Shina Williams.
