......From Africa

Dec 10, 2011, 3:59am Wine, Women And Song
Alarm bells went off when I learnt that Brian Eno was co-producer of Seun Kuti’s second album. The last thing the son of the legendary Fela Kuti needed was his personal brand of Afrobeat to be given a distancing sheen, or diluted by some space-age Enoesque sound effects. But it’s easy to forget that Eno isn’t only Mr Ambient – he also produced the groundbreaking Afrobeat-influenced work of

Africa, Rise!

Africa, Rise! Seun Kuti: Live From Festival Chorus des Hauts de Seine from KF Records on Vimeo . With From Africa with Fury: Rise , Seun Kuti creates an album that makes a direct connection and almost extension of his father Fela Kuti 's work. While his previous albums did a notable job carrying on the Afrobeat torch, with this one he has really hit the nail on the head. In so many ways, Rise looks, sounds, and [...]

Review: Seun Kuti and Egypt 80 – From Africa With Fury: Rise

Jul 26, 2011, 6:00pm Quit Mumbling
Review: Seun Kuti and Egypt 80 – From Africa With Fury: Rise Over the past few years, there's been a much revived interest in the music and work of Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Kuti, due in large part to the success of FELA! (the broadway musical whom has garnered rave reviews and Tony nods). This Fela onslaught is much welcomed and needed, as his influence on Western pop, soul, and funk is often overlooked and under-appreciated by the many. The man, whom many described as Africa's own James Brown/Miles Davis hybrid, was a spirited band leader, political activist, national hero, and impassioned lover, as evident by the 27 women he married during his time.

Flow Festival 2009: Makeaa mahan täydeltä

Aug 18, 2009, 6:38am katosblog.com
Flow Festival 2009: Makeaa mahan täydeltä Kun tämän vuoden Flow Festivalin esiintyjiä alettiin julkistaa ei voinut kun hämmästellä: miten ihmeessä yhdelle viikonlopulle saadaan mahtumaan niin helvetin paljon hyvää musiikkia ? Viimeinkin asiat olivat niin kuin pitääkin. Ei enää hikisiä junamatkoja perähikiälle eikä kylmiä telttaöitä leirintäalueella. Helsingissä järjestetään koko kesän parhaat festivaalit. Tapahtumapaikkana toimi tuttuun tapaan ihanan sokkeloinen Suvilahti . Viime vuoteen verrattuna edistystä oli tapahtunut huomattavasti. Järjestelyt toimivat kaikin puolin kiitettävästi eikä alueella enää ahdistanut liian pieneen tilaan sullotun ihmispaljouden vuoksi. Yksi nerokkain uudistus oli maahan levitellyt matot, jotka paikkasivat kaasulaitoksen suurinta puutetta, nurmikkoa. Flow:n musiikkitarjonta [...]

Afrobeat - keep it in the family

Jul 29, 2008, 2:31pm Tonegents
Afrobeat - keep it in the family You may have heard we had a little earthquake in L.A. today... it was pretty wild, probably the biggest I've felt since I've lived here. But you know what they say... it's all fun and games 'til you're buried in a pile of rubble... Just when you think it's safe to fuck with the people of Nigeria, there's another Kuti in town and he's predictably pissed. Yep, Fela's youngest son Seun Kuti has hit the scene, releasing his debut album with Dad's old band, Egypt '80 (which worked [...]

"This is the Part Where We Beg Them. SARCASTICALLY." (Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, Central Park Summerstage, 7/06/08)

Jul 7, 2008, 2:45pm heartonastick.blog-city.com
"This is the Part Where We Beg Them. SARCASTICALLY." (Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, Central Park Summerstage, 7/06/08) Consider this out-of-focus shot as part of an ongoing tribute to bad ontheinternet live concert snaps. ...or an acknowledgement of missed opportunities. A mental coin flip put this show over Ronnie Spector, and just this weekend I'd already let slip the start of the AfroPunk festival and free time with Sonic Youth and The Feelies and Rachid Taha and Dengue Fever. I know! But if I wound up at only one gig, I'm glad it was this one. I could make a better pictorial argument if I hadn't brought uncharged back-up batteries, if I [...]

New Music From Africa

May 27, 2008, 8:17pm Ultra Stimulation
New Music From Africa Africa Unite! Check out some groups from the continent that are gaining some notoriety here in the states by fusing traditional African elements with Western rock, hip-hop and electronic styles. BLK JKS (South Africa) wowed crowds at SXSW with the variety of their sounds, moving back and forth between punk, pop and African chant-style music. Esau Mwamwaya (Malawi), described to me as "the African Phil Collins" brings a smoother vocal sound (check him out flowing over M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes" below on "Tengazako"). And Seun Kuti (Nigeria) , the son of the late great [...]
