The first time I heard African music and Afrobeat and took notice I was kind of hooked, but truthfully the first Afrobeat I heard was only in the last 7-8 years and I heard it coming out of my car radio played on a local Melbourne community radio station called PBSfm.
I liked the extended tracks, the wildness of its rhythms, the raw funkiness of it and I liked how I hear it emanating through other music from other places, like from Melbourne's own 'Public Opinion Afro Orchestra' and from New York with the 'Analog Players Society'.
This set is not about pushing boundaries or discovering new hidden gems but about sharing what I like about Afro music, both the old and new.
