Borga Revolution - Ghanian Music In The Digital Age 1983-1992

Description

Kalita unveils the very first compilation focusing on the phenomenon of "Burger Highlife," a crossover of West African melodies with synthesizers, disco and boogie that flooded Ghanaian airwaves in the 1980s and beyond. Highlighting key recordings from genre-defining artists including Thomas Frempong and George Darko, as well as sought-after tracks from elusive groups such as Aban and Uncle Joe's Afri-Beat.The 1970s had seen an increase in Western airtime and physical presence in Ghana, introducing funk, soul and disco sounds to the region. At the turn of the decade, the country was also undergoing economic turbulence, with rising poverty, military dictatorships and long periods of imposed curfews (among other factors) making it impossible for artists to survive.
