Soundtracking historical changes in Africa in the 1960s to 80s, Honest Jon's release the second of two compilations bringing the diverse cultural mix of Nigeria to our ears. From pan-ethnic highlife style, which was to influence Fela Kuti's Afrobeat to the folkier juju, much incredibly beautiful music here.

Whilst Honest Jon's often brings forgotten musics to our ears, this latest set of reworks honouring Nigerian drummer Tony Allen updates the legacy of Afrobeat for today's electronic dance music - with artists diverse as Carl Craig, Diplo and Moritz von Oswald doing the honours. Incredible, essential music!

Whilst the recent Pinch and Shackleton collaboration was already an outer-dub head's dream-come-true, the talented Rabih Beaini aka Morphosis masterfully turns the sinister vortex of 'Boracay Drift' into a mesmeric 14-minute techno-spirited journey. A spine-tingling, unmissable release.

Originally released in 1980, Honest Jon's do an honourable reissue of this album, recorded at the Black Ark studio and Scratch's resurrection thereof in Holland. To today's ears sounding so staggeringly deep, rich, laden with hugely moving psychedelic emotivity - a masterpiece everyone should own.
