Since the 60s, Congolese guitar combos and orchestras have always been popular across
West and Central Africa. But the ænatural fitÆ element between East Nigerian Igbo
highlife and Congolese rumba and soukous made for a unique beat: highlife-soukous.
Although eclipsed internationally by Lagos, Yoruba, Fela Kuti and Afrobeat, it was
highlife- soukous that youÆd hear at parties all over southern Nigeria in the late
70s and early 80s.
Outside Africa, the sound proved a special favourite with ColombiaÆs Carnival
Champeta and Pico Sound system DJs û where, even today, you can hear super-rare Bota
International original vinyls booming out over 20-foot-high speaker stacks along
ColombiaÆs Caribbean coast, the records being æcovered upÆ in the style of British
Northern Soul 45s, or reggae sound system dubplates, so that competitors canÆt
discover the name of the tune or band.
Welcome to the mysterious world of highlife-soukous û and Bota Tabansi International.
