Check out this awesome blog Awesome Tapes from Africa from the Brooklyn based digger and hunter Brian Shimkovitz. He uploads loads of cassettes from different African markets. This is his mission statement: «This is music you won’t easily find anywhere else—except, perhaps in its region of origin. But if you are an artist/etc and wish for me to remove your music, click above and email me. For the record: it hasn’t happened once so far. Just saying.» The Good thing: All the Tapes do come with information about the artists.
Here some of the latest Tapes. Enjoy! And get the Information from the Blog.
