Step into the world of vintage electronic sounds with this compilation of works by Cameroonian musician Francis Bebey. While many know him for his popular classical guitar pieces and pop hits in Africa and French - speaking regions, few are familiar with his 1970s electronic music experiments. This collection from Born Bad Records showcases Bebey's 1975 - 1982 era when he used early drum machines, keyboards, and organs to fully control his compositions. He mastered the'sound on sound' recording technique, layering multiple tracks for an incredible auditory experience. Don't miss the lo - fi synth grooves of 'Savannah Georgia' and 'Divorce Pygmee', or the chilled afro vibes of 'New Track' and 'Fleur Tropicale'. This 2 - LP album is filled with Bebey's rare gems, perfect for African music lovers and fans of early electronics. It comes as a black double vinyl pressing from Born Bad Records in 2011.
