Ibibio Sound Machine, Afro-funk from London
This song reminds me of a song I liked to dance to in the late eighties in De Swing, a club for creative New Wave types in my hometown Apeldoorn. Unfortunately I have no idea what the song was called or by which band it was. It consisted of a commanding voice, somewhat diabolical, yelling against a background of throbbing, trance-like electronics.
The band in the video above is Ibibio Sound Machine, from London, a mix of dance, elctronics and Afro-funk. Very compelling. They have a new album out, simply called Electricity.
