Description: Various Artists Pop Makossa - The Invasive Dance Beat of Cameroon 1976-1984 Records & LPs New Item Description The Pop Makossa adventure started in 2009, when Analog Africa founder Samy Ben Redjeb first travelled to Cameroon to make an initial assessment of the country's musical situation. He returned with enough tracks for an explosive compilation highlighting the period when funk and disco sounds began to infiltrate the Makossa style popular throughout Cameroon .Indeed, all the tracks on Pop Makossa are a revelation. The beat that holds everything together has its origins in the rhythms of the Sawa people; Ambassey, Bolobo, Assiko and Essewé, a traditional funeral dance. But it wasn't until these rhythms arrived in the cities of Cameroon and collided with Merengue, High-Life, Congolese Rumba, and, later, Funk and Disco, that modern Makossa was born. Double LP with 20-pages LP-size booklet and 30x30cm Poster, also includes unlimited streaming of Pop Makossa - The Invasive Dance Beat of Cameroon 1976-1984 via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download. 1.
