reissue

wiederveröffentlichung von aura’s “spiritual conection” album aus dem jahre 1976. die unsichtbaren kräfte, die um sich herum ausstrahlen, sind immer naturkräfte des schicksals. der glaube selbst ist gott. aura’s reise könnte man am besten als einen spirituellen aufruf beschreiben, mensch und musik zu verbinden. ein fester glaube an uns selbst hat diese gruppe an diesen punkt gebracht, aura macht eine astralreise. dies ist ein album, das eine aufrichtig süße frucht der entschlossenheit ist, gefühlvoll genug, um dich in wahre lebenserfahrungen guter musik zu verwandeln.

repress of this album by the drummer of fela kuti. produced by doctor l. incl asiko as sampled by jaydee for commons hot shit! featuring remastered versions and ariya (psyche juju mix) as bonus track, which was not part of the original release. tony allen completely rewrote the books on what was possible within the afrobeat genre with his stunning 1999 album, black voices. when one considers exactly what is going on throughout black voices, it is quite mind boggling, as it is almost impossible to associate a minimalist, electronic feel with the massive walls of sound which allen was known to create.

after 14 years of close collaboration tony allen stopped working with fela anikulapo kuti. after breaking from the band during the gigs at berlins festival in 1978, tony allen returned to lagos to start working on new compositions. his independence inspired him to break-away from his regular routine of putting 2 tracks on every single album

feat 80s legend boy george on vocals. includes mixes by henrik schwarz, deadly avenger, ariya and dark globe

incl. bonus mix cd! following on from the success of >dirty old hip hop< marc returns with a new visioneers record hipology. hipology is a collage of some of my personal influences as a dj/producer growing up listening to hip hop a real eclectic mix of breaks, beats, soul, jazz, and freaky squeaks and not a sampler in sight. visioneers is about revisiting my love for hip hop, what is was and what it is the musical influences and the culture. hipology will be released on bbe records late spring and features guest spots from john robinson, trac & baron, notes to self, luke parkhouse & the ariya horns!
