Florence Adooni & Erobique
Mam Tola
7"-Vinyl
German artist
Erobique, known for his improvisational spirit and irresistible disco
anthems, visited drummer and producer Max Weissenfeldt in his
Ghana-based Joy Sound Studios. Erobique immediately teamed up with the
local musicians to cut some tracks.
Together with Philophon artist Florence Adooni, he created the catchy tune "Mam Tola", which Florence sings in her mother tongue Frafra. The swaying and swinging outcome is an example par excellence of Afro Soul.
On "Bach in Afrika" you hear Erobique how he converts some deep down Kumasi-style drum and bass jam into a frenetic Baroque ceremony by masterfully operating the Hammond "Extra Voice" with some reminiscence of J.S. Bach.
