ltd repress. almost 2 years after the success of the album the tony allen experiments and a few months after the release of the 7inch amore. nu guinea return to the scene with a new lp published by their newborn label ng records. after touring the world looking for sounds suitable for their vibrations. nu guinea decided to go back to square one. napoli. where massimo di lena and lucio aquilina were born and raised. they watched their city from a distance reconstructing its energy from their studio in berlin. calibrating the synths on the meridian of vesuvius. the volcano that has always protected and threatened napoli. nuova napoli is the result of a long musical research that has become a historical investigation on the sound that shaped napoli during the 70s and 80s. starting from the contamination of genres (disco. jazz-funk. african rhythms) which ended up in nu guinea’s dna. in this album the synthesizers fill the spaces between the past and the future. tightening in a single body acoustic instruments. electronics and voices in neapolitan dialect. it is the first time that the duo has worked with such a large group of musicians. some of whom are exponents of the contemporary neapolitan scene. warning: we recommend listening to nuova napoli while walking in the alleys of napolis historic center. around wet clothes hanging and street vendors on tiny three-wheelers.

the chisa years: 1965–1975 (rare and unreleased) is a compilation album by south african jazz trumpeter hugh masekela. the album consists of 14 rare or forgotten tracks recorded by stewart levine and hugh masekela from 1965 to 1975 when they ran their own chisa records label. thom jurek of allmusic wrote “in sum. there isn’t a weak moment on this entire collection. it’s appeal is wide and deep and one can only hope this is the first of many volumes of this material to appear. bbe records has done a stellar job in making this slab available.” dan nishimoto of the prefix magazine stated “the compilation focuses on masekela’s original idea of “african american music.” from the early experiments of the zulus (a group featuring m’bulu) in mixing doo-wop. rhythm & blues and south african gospel and the mbaqanga/”grazing in the grass”-style work of the generically named johannesburg street band to the clearly fela-influenced ojah (masekela’s band in the mid-’70s. consisting of players from ghana and nigeria) and the readyfor-primetime belting of m’bulu. each track reveals a multi-pronged effort to find and challenge the notion(s) of how african and american cultural forms could interact.”

rather than rely on their usual full band. live performance. one-room live single recording session. the making of ‘dragonz’ was a departure for the apples. a multi-studio project spanning three continents. they assembled new instrumental tracks based on loops created in the studio and presented them to a wide-ranging selection of vocal collaborators to complete the picture with. and applied this method to the capturing of longstanding live favourites as well. the concept of a “vocal album” was implemented on non-vocalist songs as well. treating the omnipresent turntables’ sample work not as the central element to the band. but rather its frontman. though containing disparate influences. guests and production methods. ‘dragonz’ is undeniably apples. might be their most focused lp to date. and it is certainly their most middle-eastern. elements of the region’s indigenous genres have always been present in the band’s work. but never has their influence been as pronounced.
