Ghana Soundz - Afro-beat, Funk & Fusion In 70's Ghana
(Soundway 2002) Selected by Miles Cleret

Encore un disque de 2002 qui n'est finalement disponibles dans nos bacs qu'un an près. Et encore, nous ne devrions pas nous plaindre, celui-là est sorti en France! il y a tant de bons disques n'arrivent jamais jusqu'ici... comme ces 45 tours de funk et d'afrobeat teintés de R&B et de jazz du Ghana, que l'anglais Miles Cleret est allé dénicher lui-même pendant deux ans sur place. Collectés dans ce premier volume anthologique, ces "ultra-rare and previously unreleased afro-beat, funk and fusion from 70's Ghana" valent leur pesant de cacahouètes aux épices de funk et de soul. Amateurs de Santana ou de Fela, shake your rootsy bootsy!!

Two years since winning the 2009 Mercury Music Prize for her debut album, Speech Therapy, and having ridden a rollercoaster through life since then, Speech Debelle is ready to drop her second collection of music. Entitled Freedom of Speech, the album sees Speech turning from introspection to stand up, face and engage with the world around her, spitting confident themes of revolution and love.

Now the build-up begins to the release of Freedom of Speech in early February 2012 with the free download of the track Studio Backpack Rap. From political to musical revolution, Speech describes the track as being "all about virtual instrumentation and an ode to KwesSpeech Therapy, while showcasing just one aspect of her remarkable new album.
