Kreyol-Utopia
Today - راديو الحارة
5.00-6.00 PM

What better way to celebrate summertime than with a mix of French West Indies music? Far from the clichés of festive, good-natured music, we have chosen to showcase the variety that these Creole islands (Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Haiti) have to offer. This includes feminist anthems, songs of resistance to colonial oppression, calls for local consumption, and awareness of a Caribbean culture that is mixed-race and anti-globalization. There will be traditional biguines, bèlè, and cadences blending with reggae, rock, latin and fusion influences. This non-exhaustive selection highlights the cultural richness of this sixth continent.

Alhaji Sir Waziri Oshomah And His Traditional Sound Makers – Jealousy (Ebohon Records) Nigeria 1981

Here’s a record that blew our minds, shared by our good man is

Alhaji Sir Waziri Oshomah (born Isah Sule in the mid-western town of Osomegbe, 1948) conveyed his faith and spirituality in humanist sermons served up in a danceable cocktail of traditional music, local highlife, groove and Western pop. A fan of musical experimentation, Waziri developed his own musical language, a festive trance on which he sang in English as well as in etsako and other local languages, as on his first 15-minute track Jealousy, warning the faithful of the dangers of vice and jealousy.

Nicknamed the Etsako Super Star, Alhaji Waziri Oshomah began incorporating his faith into his compositions after his parents disowned him for fear he would stray from the teachings of Islam. While the Nigerian civil war was raging, he formed a band in 1970 with the means at hand: ‘We didn’t have a professional amplifier, so we used a locally-built one powered by ordinary torch batteries,’ says the artist from Afenmailand, in Edo State, southern Nigeria. A region known for the harmony between Muslims and Christians who live and dance together. A contemporary of his fellow musicians William Oneyabor and Fela Kuti and Ghanaian Ebo Taylor, Alhaji Waziri Oshomah shared with them a taste for musical cross-fertilisation and a fraternal, joyful message, while preserving his Muslim culture and faith by sharing values such as humility and modesty in his soul music.

ANGOLA 75
Homenagem à independência - 7 inches from 🇦🇴 Labels
Analog Dakar Club for Alhara Radio 11.06.2025 / 2:30-4:00pm

As far back as the 1960s, there was a thriving recording industry in Angola. The largest record company of colonial ruler Portugal, Valentim de Carvalho, set up a pressing plant in Luanda and officially pressed licensed repertoire from labels like CBS and EMI.

Urban Angolan music from the 1970s was made for a populace in revolt. It is a heady, rhythmic sound that swings with the recognizable semba (which draws from the same rhythms as the Brazilian samba) as often as it does with the Angolan merengue. It can jump into uncharted frenetic realms that are a unique mixture of local rhythms like rebita and semba, imported rhythms like samba and merengue, and rumba from neighboring Congolese tribes. (Egon / Stones Throw on npr.org).

We have humbly tried to reproduce this rich musical effervescence in this mix. 1h 21min made strictly of Angolan original 7inches carefully digged by our man DJ Afrosider Look. We carefully chose some of the best tunes from labels that existed before Angola’s independence (Rebita and Ngola, circa 1972-1976) and its brutal civil war (CDA and Merengue, circa 1975-1977).

Henri Guedon – Afro Blue (Le Chant Du Monde – LDX 74780) France 1982

Henri Guédon was born on 22 May 1944 in Fort-de-France, Martinique.
His family, of farming origin, comes from the North (Sainte-Marie). The musical home of the bélé, of African origin. At an early age he formed a group, La Contesta, and recorded an album with Alain Jean-Marie and André Condouant. In 1964, he moved to Paris, where he took part in numerous jazz fusion concerts. A pioneer in the modernisation of Afro-Cuban music, he formed the first Big Band Jazz Caraïbes. In 1972, he released the album Cosmo Zouk, with a group of Latin Caribbean musicians: Don Gonzalo Fernandez, Nicole and Jacky Bernard, Claude Vamur and Michel Pacquit. At the end of the 1970s, he imported salsa to France. At his Afro Caraïbe jazz meeting at the Olympia, he invited the stars of Latin music. At the beginning of the 1980s, he made his mark with the albums Afro-blue and Afro-temple, a solar jazz in the colours of an eternal summer, consistently deep blue, but not without storms, squalls and lightning.

C.K. Mann & The Masters – Womma Yengor (Essiebons – EBLS 6195) Ghana 1979

We recently found this C.K. Mann record from 1979 … It leans more towards the highlife sound, which we tend to prefer in his work, rather than being overly funky.You can definitely hear some jazz and soul influences in it, too ! It’s a fantastic album, especially when you consider the incredible talent behind it – Ebo Taylor, Papa Yankson, and Bessa Simons (who later became known in borga highlife).

C.K. Mann (Charles Kofi Amankwaa Mann) was born in 1936 in Cape Coast, and passed away at 83 years on March 20th, 2018 at the Ghapoha Hospital in the Western region of Ghana. A former seaman and a member of Moses Kwaku Oppong’s Kakaiku’s Guitar Band for some time, he joined the Ocean Strings’ which he led until 1965. The band folded up and the owner of Princess Cinema in Takoradi invited C.K. to lead the Carousel 7, a newly formed resident band of the Princess night club. He then came to prominence with a single hit record Edina Benya in 1969. His music career spanned over four decades and he won multiple awards for his songs. He was awarded the Grand Medal of Ghana by former President John Agyekum Kufuor in 2006. With old age and ill health, by 2015 Mann had not performed publicly in several years. He lived at Anaji, a suburb of Takoradi. The street on which his house is located has been renamed C. K. Mann Avenue.

6th Continent – 6th Continent (Not On Label – 6 C / 001) France 1983

Sixième Continent, a legendary group from Martinique founded in 1979, performed regularly at the Hôtel Latitude in Le Carbet until 1985. Their first album was a hit, and after its release they embarked on a tour of Guadeloupe and French Guiana, followed by a series of French festivals.

Founded by Jean-Marc Monnerville (later known as ‘Kali’) in 1979, inspired by the Rastafari movement, 6th Continent played a mix of reggae, light zouk, rock and traditionnal West Indies music (Bélè drum, Beguine). Its other members are established musicians from the Martinique scene : David Montanez on drums, Vasco Noverazz (Les Léopards de St Pierre) on keyboard, Joseph Patiron on bass, and José Jean-Marie on guitar). Singers of a return to the African roots of West Indian music, they advocate a pan-Caribbean consciousness (based on the pan-African model) and the unity of the Caribbean world forming the « 6th Continent ». Reacting to the new zouk trend and its commercial and easy access aspect, they denounce in their lyrics the evils of post-colonial society, the perversion of mass tourism, sometimes with humour. One of the group’s greatest hits was the iconoclastic arrangement of the famous « Adieu foulards » featuring on this LP.

An important date for 6th Continent was 22 May 1979, when it held its first big concert at Grand Carbet Concert Hall in the Parc Floral for the Rastafarian community and all other Martinicans. This led to an invitation to record their first album in Guadeloupe, but the record’s pressing and distribution were delayed for two years. Finally, in 1981, its track “Reggae Dom-Tom » became the group’s first hit (Dom-Tom is the French name for the overseas territories), a song that really unites the youth of the French overseas territories, tackling the identity issues of West-Indies in relation to mainland France. Kali went so far as to call himself a « nègre départemental ».

Compare Issouf And The Noble Kings – Kadiogo (Lido Musique – LIDO 031) Ivory Coast 1978

Compare Issouf, also known as Compaoré Issouf, is one of the most iconic figures in Burkinabe music and is currently celebrating 50 years of his musical career. On this early album, recorded when he was just 24, he collaborated with artists from Burkina Faso’s southern neighbor, Ghana—namely guitarist Eric Agyemang and bassist Ralph Karikari, also known as The Nobles Kings. These musicians were key members of legendary groups like Super Sweet Talks and The Super Complex Sounds, who famously played alongside K. Frimpong.

The album carries a vibe reminiscent of Vis-A-Vis, with rhythms elevated to a whole new level through a strong infusion of afrofunk. This style resonates deeply with the traditional sounds of the Mooré-speaking Kadiogo region in central Burkina Faso, particularly Ouagadougou, Compare Issouf’s hometown.

Another track on the album, sung in French and titled « J’ai 20 ans, » leans toward a slower tempo, blending elements of highlife and even afro-reggae. Despite its more laid-back pace, it remains just as captivating and rhythmically rich as the afrofunk-infused pieces.

Words by the mighty : thanks to him !
