about

Debut release from “Canopy”, a new label by Sumosui.

"Sub-Saharan Synth Swagger - Recalibrated & Re-celebrated"

This single features a track from Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria. Originally released in 1987 the title is taken from a rare LP by reggae artist Ehi Duncan (RIP). Here he explores a more up-tempo electronic afro funk reggae–disco direction.

Proto electronic beat programming, stripped back and warm, Balearic tinged, Afro-reggae-disco-funk vibes.

Captain Planet propels the track into the 21st century teaming up with the horn section, keys and synth from the Ibibio Sound Machine to inject extra flavour and dynamics into the mix.

The tracks transition between reggae-disco, afro funk & fat electronic beats.

Guaranteed to warm up creation!
