2017 reissue -- tony allen is the co-creator of afrobeat, and one of the most distinctive and in-demand drummers on the planet. no one swings like this nigerian rhythm man ? with that amazing, loose-limbed, poly-rhythmic technique that has powered some of the funkiest and most challenging dance music ever created. and lagos no shaking is his most powerful and personal album to date: a return to core values, a testament to the fact that afrobeat is best served straight ? hot, hard and percussion-heavy.
>lagos no shaking< is a spectacular homecoming for tony allen, an acerbic, unflinching love letter to the city that gave him life in rhythm.

riot in lagos in its essence is a compilation of modern productions and reworks rich in magic from the motherland. following on from a recent resurgence of afro inspired disco thanks to labels like bbe, strut, tala a.m and awesome tapes from africa digging heavy, and reissuing some of the best content in many years from the world s second largest continent a wide and diverse range of.

master londons joseph russel signs for funkdriven quirky chicago techno but a 1, drums of lagos, stands out of many. what starts like a sturdy minimalist drum and snare pattern monotrack turns inti a discotech monster all at once and seemingly oout of almost nowhere. and once the surprise swingbreak of the track gets you hooked there no stopping.

berliners dirk leyers and nomad expressed their hard earned musical freedom in a dogma: the use of a roland tr-808 analog drum machine in every single track. they programmed the machine to lay poly-rhythms over multicultural drum and percussion tracks, fascinated -and sometimes puzzled- by its own characteristically sudden swing and accent changes, and named it: africaine 808 - their third and first female band member. in the first year of their musical joint venture, the three spent quite some time in remixing and editing some of their favourite african and island funk tunes, transforming the old gold into modern dj and dancefloor friendly tunes. the sound of organic grooves mixed with 808-beats and analogue synthesizer basslines became soon a trademark sound, and more and more samples got replaced by live played guitar, bass, organ and percussion. the trio experimented with different tempos and styles ranging from slow cumbia and exotic rumba themes to island-funk and percussive disco, electro and house. in spring 2012 they first took the project to another level, turning their tracks into a full live act at one of the vulkandance nights in berlin. today the project is growing and integrating guest musicians, drummers, percussionists and vocalists - for live performances as well as for recording in the studio. 100% sonic voodoo golf channel every time!
