jazz / funk

2020 reissue of the 2011 shaolin afronauts debut album.

though there is something refreshing and original about the afronauts, their music could be described as somewhere in between the heavy afrobeat of fela kuti and the ethio-jazz of mulatu astatke. this debut 12 inch single combines all these elements, >journey through time< having a hypnotic, spiritual feel, whilst the b side >kibo< is totally exclusive to this 12 inch single, and is an upbeat positive groove, both tracks only hinting at the delights the forthcoming album flight of the ancients (fsrcd/lp085) will contain.

marcelo torres does not foget his tribal origin to propose his new single on fragile records even though you can taste a little bit of electronic contamination into it... hot impact on the floor.

nice price deal !!! the production team the afronauts strikes once again with this new single containing sounds of the recent past which have been revisited in a more aggressive way in order to be linked to the sound of today...you can play it, you can dance it, yet another club hit comes!

atmospheric progger. flip over for an electro/tech flavoured alternative mix

4 different artists, 4 different tracks around the main theme outer space!!!

3rd fragile records ep here 4 tracks full of tribal house action a must have
