Bukom Mashie (original, Quantic rmx)/Disco Africa (orig, Quantic rmx) – Ghana Soundz Sampler (with download)
12-inch (Item 84135) Soundway (UK), 2004 — Condition: New Copy
A great sampler of Ghana grooves from Soundway Records – a taste of the wonderful Ghana Sounds compilation of 70s Afro funk! Oscar Sulley's "Bukom Mashie" is a wonderfully jazzy selection, with the deep, heavy percussion providing the requisite huge percussion back drop for some awesomely dexterous riffing from the horns. Groove heavyweight champs Quantic give the track a sweet remix, at first slowing the percussion backdrop for a dubby feel, before slowly speeding the beats in a huge way, with the horns and vocals calling from the distance and letting the beats carry it. "Ogyatanaa Show Band" is another great example of the Afrobeat community's deep affection and understanding of American soul and funk from the time. Wicky wicky guitar and thick organ funk up the Afro vox before it all dips out into a percussion joyride, and then it all floats back up again! Quantic layers the synthy bass and adds some sweet echoey effects in their remix of the track. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
