On special request and from Côte d’Ivoire we’ve got this
album with Ernesto Djédjé today. He created his ‘Ziglibithy’
based on a kind of bété roots music combined with Congolese
rhythms. His records are quite hard to find nowadays ..

Op verzoek van eén van onze bezoekers hebben we vandaag
een plaat met Ernesto Djédjé uit Côte d’Ivoire. Hij creëerde
zijn ‘Ziglibithy’ gebaseerd op een soort bété roots muziek

3 September 2022|Jamaica, Ska|2 Comments

Good morning, you may have noticed low activity, time
has been limited the past few weeks. Let’s say it is holiday
season and other things had priority. Let’s see ..

This is an old prince Buster album on which no info was
available easily. The sleeve and label only speak of ten songs
while in fact the record counts twelve. Luckily nowadays we
have the tools to find the correct titles. This elpee contains
the song ‘Madness’ where the Brittish group took its name
from. Further we find only golden oldies as the title already
suggests. Lovely ska songs you can’t afford to miss ..

Goeiemorgen, het was je vast al opgevallen dat er de laatste
weken niet zo veel activiteit is, zomervakantie tijd zullen we
maar zeggen, andere dingen kregen voorrang ..

Vandaag hebben we deze plaat met Prince Buster waarover
niet direct veel te vinden was. De hoes en het label spreken
slechts over tien nummers terwijl de plaat er toch echt twaalf
telt. Gelukkig beschikken we tegenwoordig over de middelen
de correcte titels te vinden. Dit album bevat de song ‘Madness’
waar de Engelse groep z’n naam aan ontleende. Verder vinden
we alleen golden oldies zoals de titel al doet vermoeden ..

As long time sucker for accordion music I keep coming back to
the fastest sound in the field, the merengue ripao from the
Dominican republic. On this album we find ‘El Cieguito de
Nagua’, the blind man from Nagua. Inimitable smart play

to play while driving my car ..

Editions Namaco calls it native blues, a nice term, but we know
this music as Igbo Highlife of course. Together with stars like
Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe, Celestine Ukwu, Mike Ejeagha
and others, Ali Chukwumah was one of the most influential
figures in the field. This is an early album with Ali, from 1976.
Always a joy to find another record with him, such gentle
and smooth highlife, enjoy listening again ..

Editions Namaco noemt het native blues, een mooie term
natuurlijk en vaker gebruikt bij deze muziek. We kennen
het beter als Igbo Highlife denk ik. Samen met sterren als

Ejeagha bijvoorbeeld, was Ali Chukwumah eén van de
meest invloedrijke figuren binnen deze stroming. Dit
is een vroeg album met Ali, uit 1976. Altijd een feest

15 August 2022|Benga|8 Comments

Ochieng’ Nelly was born Nelson Ochieng Orwa in 1943 in South Nyanza.
He began playing the guitar in his teenage years after being taught
and inspired by the pioneering Congolese Musician Adolf Banyore.
Ochieng’ Nelly got his first guitar in 1961. He travelled widely through
Uganda, Congo and other African countries. He was widely exposed to
Congolese guitar playing styles. He developed his own unique playing
style that was later a big influence to the sound of The Ogara Boys Band,
and Benga music in general.
Nelly worked with his Congolese mentor for a while before joining The
Ogara Boys Band in 1962. The Ogara Boys Band consisting of founding
member John Ogara Odondi and Aketch Oyosi was formed in 1960. Together
the trio started and developed a unique sound that got the name Benga,
in 1963. In 1966, Nelly left Ogara Boys Band to pursue his career
elsewhere. He briefly collaborated with another Benga legend, George
Ramogi. Ochieng’ Nelly has produced several songs such as: Monica Abio,
Ombua Akelo, Celestine Juma, Samuel Aketch among others.His story is
featured extensively in the Ketebul Music produced documentary: Retracing
The Benga Rhythm Through Ochieng’ Nelly’s music, the legend of yester
years Benga , still lives on.

Holger Czukay – Movies
Harvest 1979

13 August 2022|Avant Garde, Germany, Pop|1 Comment

Here in the Netherlands we enjoy, or suffer, the first official
heat wave in 2022 with temperatures over 30º. Nice for some
and a pain in the *ss for others. I couldn’t resist posting this
album with German bass player Holger Schüring, better known
as Holger Czukay. Opening track ‘Let’s Get Cool in the Pool’ is
just the song for today. Holger was an early pioneer, forging
his avant-garde pop music. He used shortwave radio sounds
and was one of the first sampling snippets from magnetic tapes.
Listen to his mind blowing 1979 album ‘Movies’ ..

Deze dagen genieten we, of lijden onder, de eerste officiele
hittegolf in 2022 met temperaturen over de 30º. Fijn voor de
eén, minder fijn voor de ander. Ik kon niet weerstaan dit album
met Holger Schüring, beter bekend als Holger Czukay, te posten.
Opener ‘Let’s get Cool in the Pool’ is ideaal voor het moment.
Holger was een vroege pionier met zijn avant-garde pop. Hij
gebruikte korte golf radio fragmenten en was een van de eerste
die samples van magnetische tape in zijn muziek boetseerde.
Luister naar deze uit 1979 stammende plaat ‘Movies’ ..
