Various Artist – Elsewhere CC

Description

Les Disques Bongo Joe are proud to be home of the new volume of DJ soFa’s well known curation work Elsewhere series with Elsewhere CC ! This ninth exploration of our beloved Bruxelles based cratedigger and producer (Mameen 3, Nyati Mayi & The astral Synth Transmitters, …) is an ode to summer and groove !

The ninth edition in the Elsewhere series is a real digger’s paradise of tropical gems, from Trinidad to Brazil, Poland, Dominica, and beyond. The compilation is an eclectic mix of outernational, tropical-wave, Calypso, multi-rhythmic percussive beats, lo-fi disco jams, and other such styles that lie somewhere in that magical in-between zone. Compiled by Brussels-based DJ, tastemaker and producer soFa, Elsewhere Vol.9 CC is a perfect collection of Balearic, good-vibe, sunshine rarities, to soundtrack a cocktail session on a reclusive, tropical beach, featuring rare tunes and some of the artist’s own unique productions and collaborations. It’s a succinct ensemble of tracks from the 70s to the modern day, featuring hard-to-find and rare works, including the holy grail of Calypso records, Jeannette Azzouz’s ‘So Close to Me’.
