I always liked the word, ‘highlife’. While exploring the genre
this feeling only increased. The more I get to know, the
more I get to like it. Take this LP by Ali Chukwumah, I
knew one album untill I found this one. Holy guacamole,
while recording it I could hardly stay on my chair. Rockin’
Nigerian beat that keeps you up and going..

Let’s shake up the place with something completely different.
From Haïti we have this lp by Altiery Dorival. He brings us a
type of kompa quite unique with his banjo pluckin’ sound.
Atmospheric caribbean, French antillian tropical you know…
to help you through winter,…just get it !

Third LP by this artist at this page. As usual I can’t
really tell you anything useful about him. I am not even
sure if I like the message he is bringing. The only thing
I am absolutely sure of is what my ears tell me. And that
is something good ! Whether it’s is Ghanaian or Nigerian,
I don’t know and I don’t care, it is a real treat !
