SWP Records Utrecht, Netherlands
SWP Records was founded by Zambian-born drummer, composer, producer, field recordist Michael Baird in 1987. The label releases his own music, music from central, southern, and eastern Africa, and any other beautiful music that has been forgotten. SWP Records opted out of all streaming platforms and other digital services to join Bandcamp and we are very happy to be here! Enjoy the music! ... more

La Locura de Machuca 1975-1980 (Analog Africa Nr. 30)
by Analog Africa
supported by 5 fans who also own “Mambala Dance”
Another golden compilation from AA! Great introduction to Afro-Colombian psychedelia via the Discos Machuca back catalogue. These songs are full of infectious percussion, trance-inducing rhythms, sun-soaked melodies, and hauntingly beautiful vocals. Hard to pick a favourite song, but I've played side D the most.

The Message (Limited Dance Edition Nr. 9)
by Gyedu-Blay Ambolley
supported by 4 fans who also own “Mambala Dance”
Analog Africa is by far my favourite gateway to the amazing music of the African continent... I must have missed this album by release, so I made this an early christmas present to myself. This is some serious funky shizzle!!!
