THIS IS A VINYL ONLY RELEASE - SORRY NO STREAMING OR DOWNLOAD
It's been a while, but we're glad to say the new A7 Edits 12" (#5) will finally be in shops, April 1st.
Three tracks : Lagos singer Oby Onihoya's 1981 Nigerian disco killer 'Enjoy Your Life' given a subtle, and funky House underpinning by man about town / rising star Ben Gomorri.
Jura Soundsystem lightly sprinkles Tongolese chanteuse Afia Mala's 1989 electronic two step souler 'Koma' with some added dub sparkle, whilst newcomers D Tourn cut up Cameroonian Eko (Roosevelt Louis) 1979 dancefloor staple Bowa Nga Ngebe over some 808 drums and an insistent bassline.
