Bastard Jazz Recordings

Colombian labels Galletas Calientes Records and Palenque Records strike back with the third volume of their acclaimed AfroColombia Remix series; a series envisioned to bring you revisited modern classics from two musical worlds: African and Colombian sounds reimagined through the lens of contemporary electronic music. This volume not only celebrates Palenque Records 20+ years of activism; it also marks the 20th anniversary of French-Colombian label Galletas Calientes Records, and stands as an humble homage to the memory of deceased, Colombian maestro of Caribbean psychedelic grooves Abelardo Carbono, whose La Piña Madura, originally composed with Will Quantic Holland, gets a new life under Voilaaas magic funky touch. The compilation also features reinterpretations of Nigerian original Igbo Highlife and Ekobe music songs performed by the legendary Oriental Brothers International Band and Azuka Moweta and His Anioma Brothers Band of Africa. This collection of remixes or reworks was brought to you by carefully picked producers and musicians from all over the world, known for their ability to respectfully celebrate the essence of the original songs while introducing new, irresistible grooves: North-American producers Captain Planet and Uproot Andy; Venezuelan, multitalented percussionist and composer Caribombo, and the already mentioned, French disco-funk master Bruno Patchwork aka Voilaaa.
