In 1972, Orchestre Abass released two incredible singles on Polydor. These records - featuring Samarin Banza, Haka Dunia and other afrofunk masterpieces - were powerful enough to knock any music head out, but it wasn't until the discovery of some unreleased material by the band that the seeds for this project were planted. Analog Africa previously discovered some similar music in Northern Benin and in Nigeria and started picturing an area that spread all the way from Northern Ghana to Northern Cameroon, an area I dubbed ‘The Islamic funk belt' due to the fact that Super Borgou de Parakou, Napo De Mi Amor, Uppers International and Hamad Kalkaba just to name a few - all from that ‘belt' - were groups made up of musicians with an Islamic background. With their heavy, organ-led sound combining with the deftest of musical touches, these records were the work of a rhythmic powerhouse and (one) of Togo´s funkiest band. (Analog Africa)
