Walter de Afogados - Self Titled (1986)

One last tune in the bag for tonight’s dance. A shout out to the brilliant on this one as I discovered this tune from one of her excellent lockdown mixes. A beautiful slice of 80’s MPB that always goes down a treat on the dancefloor! 🇧🇷

You can catch us in basement from 8pm TONIGHT with specials guests FREE ENTRY 🕊️ and all proceeds go to

Maitre Ledy Youla – Alou Kèlè Dabila - Soukabè (1986)

Pure Maghreb disco heat! 🔥Ledy Youla’s one and only solo outing after a storied career in bands all across West Africa and his native Mauritania.
It delivers plenty of Youla’s patented sax alongside wailing synths and some power drums - definitely one to check out if you’re into the 80s end of things like Burger-Highlife.
Plus, cover style to die for. We don’t have a dress code, but if we did… 🤔

HEAR THIS and MORE from all around this fine fine planet 🌍 THIS FRIDAY from 8PM

MONDO x SUPER GUESTS

FREEEEEEEEEE 🕊️

Azymuth – Águia Não Come Mosca (1977)

We’re still recovering from the absolute trip it was to see LIVE in the Fine City as part of An honour and a privilege, as they say, as well as some of the most impressive playing I’ve seen in a good while. Hats off all round, one for the ages! 🙌

Should you wish to recapture some of those rhythms to some small degree, we will ALWAYS have some Brazilian heat for you at the DISCOTECA PSICODELICA - samba, MPB, disco, and of course a lovely drop of Jazz-Funk for the heads, among plenty of other GLOBAL TREATS! 🇧🇷 🌍 ✨

THIS FRIDAY / 8pm /
FREE 🕊️

Sam Mangwana Et L’African Allstars - Self Titled (1978)

When you have a great idea for an album sleeve, why stop at one record? Swipe to check out version 2 and a sound clip. >>>

Absolutely love this LP of soukous from the legendary Congolese vocalist, musician and songwriter. Having cut his teeth in not only African Fiesta but also TPOK Jazz (What a CV!), Mangwana went on to record a number of killer albums as a band leader and solo artist in the following decades.

Can’t wait to heat up the dance floor with this on FRIDAY Free entry as always with all proceeds going to

Star Band De Dakar – Star Band De Dakar - Vol. 6 (1980)

Interesting one this! Picked up from at the last fair (pls do another one soon guys! ✌️) Despite indications to the contrary this isn’t actually Star Band De Dakar, but a Sonafric reissue of an album by fellow Senegalese band Orchestre Cheikh Tall Et Idrissa (Edy) Diope.

All well and good, but all you really need to worry about is just how lush this Afro Cuban beauty sounds in a basement. Luckily for you, we’ve got the answer (spoiler: EXCELLENT) at the next DISCOTECA down at the on FRIDAY 6th! 💃🏽
