AfroBeating 2

Going back further than my Afrobeating 1 mix, this mix features what many would consider more 'traditional' music from sub-Saharan Africa, and not so likely to frighten the purists as my AfroBeating 1 mix ;-)

I've had the oldest of these records for over 35 years, and most of them are from the 80s / early 90s, so you might hear a few pops and crackles - they have been played a lot, often for DJing, and show a few signs of their hard, but rewarding, lives.

100 to 123bpm for those who are interested in such things.

The cover picture is of a mid-20th century Ewe Kente fabric from Ghana http://www.adireafricantextiles.com/eweintro.htm

More to come soon!
