Diablos Del Ritmo - The Colombian Melting Pot 1960 - 1985




After half a decade in which seven expeditions were made to Barranquilla, Analog Africa is honored to present “Diablos del Ritmo,” an anthology of - and tribute to - the immense sound of 1970s Colombia. 

Thousands of records were collected, boiling down to a colorfully diverse selection of 32 tracks, split between Afrobeat, Afrofunk, Psychedelia-inspired rhythms on Part.1 and an array of danceable tropical rhythms on Part.2

Janjaweed








Janjaweed is being released to commemorate the independence 
of the Republic of South Sudan.

"This video touches on the horror and violence the people of South Sudan 

and Eastern Chad have endured for decades at the hands of the janjaweed
nomadic Arabic gunmen or so called devils who ride on horseback."

The Very Best



The Very Best formed over the exchange of a bicycle - once upon a time, the group was a trio consisting of Malawian singer Esau Mwamwaya and the London-based producer duo Radioclit. It has since been reduced to two, as one of the Radioclit members jumped ship.
 

Their mixtape Super Mom asserts an energising balance between joyful tribal feels and modern-based electronics; guests to contribute include Kanye West, Billy Idol, LCD Soundsystem, Rusko and African Boy, to name a few.  

Super Mom is intended to be a “celebration of Africa” and a “celebration of every mother in the world.”
