Plenty of afrobeat on Radio Mukambo, including 16-strong Phoenix Afrobeat Orchestra led by funky heiress Camille Sledge from Phoenix, USA. Their third studio album “The Times” is our album of the week. We also listen to BANTU‘s new single and Ghanaian highlife from Saltpond City Band.
Then we dive into “Orixás Remixed”, remixes for the Orixás, the Gods of the Afro-Brazilian candomblé religion. Label Brasil Discos invites Brazilian music producers and DJs to transform the original songs in electronic versions following the modern trends of global club music.
Other new singles come from Cuba, Israel, Colombia & France, ranging from surf music & dub to mestizo jazz.
