New Ostinatio Records - The Dancing Devils of Djibouti.
From the website:
The first ever international album from Djibouti and Ostinato's first studio recorded album. This ain't a compilation or reissue!
A stunning collision of Indian Bollywood, Jamaican dub and reggae, sleek horns inspired by Harlem’s jazz era, and the haunting and joyous synthesizer melodies of the Red Sea by Groupe RTD, one of East Africa’s best kept secrets.
Recorded in three days -- as per the strict limit set by Djibouti's national radio authorities -- with a state-of-the-art mobile recording studio replete with the very best audio interfaces and carefully positioned microphones around a less than soundproof room to achieve a vibrant, professional sound while maintaining the analog warmth of decades prior.
A portion of Bandcamp sales will be donated in equal parts to:
• The Djiboutian Embassy in Germany to purchase masks and other essential supplies for Djibouti.
• Amref Health Africa Covid-19 Fund
