5 out of 5 stars "provocative, dynamic and creative ~ Africa Remix".......2005-04-27

Milan Records presents "Africa Remix: Contemporary Music of a Continent", featuring the collaboration between artists from 25 countries across the continent...the soul of this expression of their culture is heard loud and clear...from the beginning this power house of tradition sets you on your ear with a collective of identities that are fresh as the day they were first heard.

Enjoy the next 16 tracks in artists & song alphabetical order:

AWILO LONGOMBA (Coupe Bibamba with Jocelyne Berouard)

Great sounds from a new urban and local talent from the youth of the continent...entire album has a dynamic and multi-structured feel to it...melodies, musical instruments, rhythms have clearly had an impact on todays genres of jazz, blues and rock & roll...without this heritage of traditional music we would be empty...not a nice way to go through life...so on behalf of all music lovers around the world...thank you Africa!
