El Highlife es una de las músicas más importantes de la historia de la Música Africana, y en especial de la música de los años 70 y 80 de Ghana y Nigeria. En esta sesión de DJ Tubabu recogemos un montón de temas actuales, la mayoría grabados en los últimos años, que muestran que el Highlife sigue vivo. Por una lado reunimos a algunos de los genios de los años 70 que han grabado en los últimos años (Ebo Taylor, Gyedu Blay Ambolley, Pat Thomas, Orlando Julius, Alhaji K. Frimpong). Músicos que actualizan el estilo siendo fieles a la música de los años 70 (Santrofi, Oliver Nayoka, Sollo7 and the Senku Band, Kodjovi Kush). Músicos nigerianos que se acercan al highlife desde el afrobeat (Bantu, Muyiwa Kunnuji, Wura Samba), y bandas que lo hacen desde el afrofunk ( Yaaba Funk, Konkoma, Vaudou Game, Jembaa Groove). También. bandas y músicos que fusionan distintas músicas africanas de baile, entre las que está el highlife, con electrónica y músicas urbanas (Pat Kalla, ONIPA, Nubiyan Twist, Kweku of Ghana, Koichi Sakai, Super Yamba Band). Otros proceden del reggae y del rap (Rocky Dawuni, Blitz The Ambassador, Seekaman). En fin, una sesión muy variada, colorida, enérgica y vibrante de lo que significa el Highlife en la actualidad dentro del panorama general de la Música Africana. Disfruta !!!

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay! 1. Brother Mwalimu K-Q Amsata (aka Bro. Edward H. Brown, Jr.) joins us to talk about the RCC -- North America of the Pan African Federalist Movement (PAFM) Conference, Oct. 15-19 via Zoom.  2.

shop for samba drums Bio:Kahlil Cummings, a Los Angeles native, is an acclaimed drummer, exceptional performer, composer, and educator. Kahlil was recognized as a child prodigy very early; since childhood, he has played with numerous reputable groups including Ballet Folclórico Do Brasil, Sona Sané, Abalayé, Mila Samba School, Inu Olorun, Debbie Allen Dance Company, Les Amazones, and Viver Brasil. Kahlil honed his rhythmic gifts with noted teachers including Mestre Amen Santo, Jose Ricardo Sousa, Kobla Ladzekpo, Esteban “Cha Cha” Bacallao (Ibae), and Sandy Perez. His studies in Guinea, Brazil and Cuba have helped to widely broaden his knowledge and musical strength. However, he is most profoundly influenced by West African master drummer Mamady Keita, with whom he has studied since the age of 13. Kahlil helped start the group Balandugu Kan, which was sanctioned by Keita as representing “the voice of Balandugu”--- the village where Keita was born. His compositions can be heard on his debut album Iniké Baba, recorded live in Guinea, West Africa.Kahlil was the musical director for opening numbers for both the NAACP Image Awards and the Choreographers Awards in 2004. Since then, he has performed with several renowned artists such as Janelle Monae (American Idol), Shakira (music video “Waka Waka), and R. Kelly. He recently recorded percussion for Aloe Blacc in a song titled “Let the Games Begin,” which was featured in the movie “Race.” In addition, Kahlil performed with Pharrell Williams and Kendrick Lamar in the 2015 and 2016 Grammy Awards, respectively. His prolific abilities have even taken him as far as Japan, where he produced and recorded music for Takarazuka, an elite Japanese theater ensemble, and for Pomba, a well-known fitness company.Currently Kahlil plays and tours with international recording artist Rocky Dawuni, and can be heard on the album “Branches of the Same Tree,” which earned a Grammy nomination for Best Reggae Album of the Year in 2016. He is now the musical director for Viver Brasil, Los Angeles's premier Afro-Brazilian dance company. His latest musical project, Capofresh, a hypnotic blend of West African, Afro-Cuban, Brazilian and hip-hop rhythms fused with an LA sound is due out later this year.Song: Canto AncestralLinks:kahlilcummings.comYemonja Asaba Workshop Feb 3 https://www.facebook.com/events/275043896524821/?ti=icl viverbrasil.comhttps://www.facebook.com/Kahlilc33 Shop for samba drums Samba gear.

Well in 1992 there was a little Acid Jazz club that formed at a Greek restaurant on Melrose Ave in Los Angeles, CA. through friends of friends and at a point when the musical influences in hop hop, jazz, and reggae were probably at its peak as far as creativity goes in the music industry. And if you were part of the industry, then this is where you had to be…. BRASS. Brass was the name of the club and for anyone who was there?, well then this mix is dedicated to you! 75 mins (song for song) of every chune that was played regularly at the weekly Sunday sessions and one off parties thrown by the Brass crew including the first ever promoted shows in L.A. of The Brand New Heavies, Jamiroquai, Guru's Jazzmatazz, The Roots, Born Jamericans, The Pharcyde, MC Solaar, along with some Roy Ayers shows for the good vibes.: The Brass Crew: Orlando aka EMC-0, Marques Wyatt, DJ P, and myself alongside Dave Felts, and with respect to DJ Cid, Jesse De La Pena in Chicago, Gerry V in S.F., and all the jazz funkin' peops of San Diego, CA.The Guest List: In no particular order; Marques, Orlando, Paul Stewart aka DJ P, Dave Felts, Cid Hernandez aka DJ Cid.
