Hello everyone ! </div>

Just a little word to inform you that this blog "African Grooves" is moving to a new adress !! This post is my last post on blogspot !</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have my own official Website now, the adress is : <a href="http://africangrooves.fr/category/blog/">http://africangrooves.fr/category/blog/</a> !!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's easier than with blogspot, you will know find a search tool bar to find articles easily (for instance, you'll just have to write "Cameroon" in the Search Tool Bar to find all the articles related with !).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More, you'll find appart from the blog section a special mix section, a label version (for my new "Nanga Boko Record" record label), a interview / video section and a shop section, to buy new releases or original records taken from my own collection !</div>

The track presented here, "Ewule Ma Mbawu La", is an awesome percussive and bouncing dancefloor highlife track, with rhodes keys and synths in Vis-a-Vis Orchestra vein - Enjoy !</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Born on the 2 of February 1918 in Port-Au-Prince (Haiti), Jean-Baptiste Nemours was one of the most important figures of the Haitian musical scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He was member of many Haitian orchestra's (Jazz Guignard, Trio Atomique..) before founding his own in 1953, the "Ensemble aux Calebasses" (he will change the name of the orchestra later in 1958 for "Ensemble Nemours Jean-Baptiste" and in 1963 for "Super Ensemble Nemours Jean-Baptiste").</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With his Ensemble, they are supposed to have invented the "Kompa Dirèk", later shortened to "Kompa" (compas) musical style.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jean-Baptiste Nemours died the 18 of May 1985 in Port-Au-Prince.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

José - Bonga - Adelino Barceló de Carvalho, one the most famous musician from Angola, was born the 5th of September 1942 in Kpiri (Angola).<br />
<br />
He has lived in Angola, Portugal and France, forced to regularly move in the 70's because of his commitment in struggle for the independence of Angola (former Portuguese colony).<br />
<br />
He has released more than 30 albums (his last album was recorded in 2016), and he's still active today.<br />
<br />
I decided to make you discover "Ngila", a raw and melancholic song taken from my favourite album (his 6th album), "Kualuka Kuetu".<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dele Abiodun is one of the most important figures of the Juju scene, a musical genre from Nigeria between Jazz, Highlife and Traditionnal music.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He was born in 1948 in Sobe (Nigeria), a town on the boundary between West and Mid-West Nigeria.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He made his first steps in music as a drummer in his school band, and studied music has a teenager in Accra (Ghana) at the Young Pioneer School of Music. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In 1970, he founded his band, Prince Admiral Dele Abiodun and His Top Hitters Band (influenced by musicians such as Cardinal Rex Lawson or I.K. Dairo), and recorded more than 20 albums from the 70's to the 90's.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He stills lives and performs in Nigeria today and he's the president of Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria.<br />
<br />
For today, I decided to presend you "1000 Miles", an incredible track showing that Juju music can sometimes be as bouncing as Afrobeat does - Enjoy !</div>

To close this sunday, a track from Dany "Play" Sinai, a famous musician from Guyana who recorded several albums and singles from the 60's.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Le Noir" - the track presented here - is taken from a very obscure and very hard to find compilation out on the 70's on a private label and recorded in one session in the Eldorado cinema (Cayenne, Guyana).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dany Sinai is still active today in the musical fields, owns the "Polina" nightclub (Matoury, Guyana) and also a haulage firm.</div>

Itadi K. Bonney was a singer and guitarist, born in Anonoe village (Togo) in 1948.<br />
<b> </b><br />
This track, Ayala, is a pure gem of afrosoul, taken from his first album, recorded live in Ghana in 1977.<br />
<br />
In the early 1990's, he has to flee Togo for the United States because of a song he recorded, "Mayi Africa", that was against the political situation in Togo.<br />
<br />
He recorded there several albums on his own record label "Bonney I. Productions", and toured in the United States, West Africa and Europe. <br />
<br />
He died in 2013 in Washington DC.<br />
