Brand new recordings by Ata Kak, who created a peculiar slice of Ghanaian music history with his debut album “Obaa Sima”. While it barely made a ripple at the time of its release in 1994, the cassette found a new life online in 2006. A not-so-underground cult obsession grew after it appeared on the blog Awesome Tapes From Africa as its very first post, a sort of manifesto for the project. His addictive amalgam of left-field electronic music and Twi-language hiplife reached surprising levels of awareness among music fans of many stripes. In 2015, Obaa Sima was officially reissued by Shimkovitz's Awesome Tapes From Africa label to widespread acclaim, sparking a global rediscovery of Ata Kak.
