  1. Play
    Essential West African Sounds
    From Benin to Mali, Senegal to Sierra Leone, these are the West African musicians who have transcended the borders of nations and styles, bringing their pulsing polyrhythms and complex cultural traditions to the world at large.
  2. Play
    Africa Ascending
    Eclectic sounds from the African continent, from afrobeat, highlife and juju to desert blues and Ethio-jazz.
  3. Play
    Essential Afrobeat
    In the 1970s a new genre of music emerged from Nigeria called afrobeat. Created by the legendary bandleader Fela Kuti, afrobeat combined funk, jazz and psychedelic rock with West African highlife music and politically-charged lyrics.
  4. Play
    South African Roots & Descendants
    Listen to essential songs that have shaped South African music, from 1950s Zulu-influenced jazz to the traditional a cappella singing of isicathamiya music, and the contemporary songs they have inspired.
  5. Play
    Hypnotic African Electric Guitar
    African "desert blues" is just about the biggest sound in world music circles today. Blending western forms with African soul, plus a healthy dose of amplification, it's a hypnotic sound that speaks hauntingly of the place and its people.
  6. Play
    South African Soulful House
    Since the early 1990s, house music has defined the sound of Pretoria and Jo'burg. South African beatmakers have cultivated a distinctly local take on house music, creating a sound that couldn't be made anywhere else, but can be danced to around the globe.
