Holy Togo, it's Zambiance!

I want to take a moment to pass along this amazing blog called Awesome Tapes from Africa. The maker of this blog has no information about himself (except that he is a he and lives in Brooklyn) up to credit, and I haven't had time to look in-depth at his other blog, The Hiplife Complex, but I can't wait to spend some rainy day reading all about hiplife artists in Ghana.

Here is a scanned image from the tape cover of the latest posted recordings.

Meanwhile, you need to check out this staggering compendium of digitally-recorded-from-analog African music, all available in QuickTime streams linked off the blog. There isn't enough time in a month to listen to it all!
