FS a.k.a. Slap Yourself a.k.a. Kill Gatez Super Duper Music !! LOVE LOVE LOVE !!

musicwithsoul This comp is absolutely fantastic. I love every single tune in it. Even after years of collecting music from Martinique and Guadaloupe, they have managed to make a selection that is not obvious at all and yet gives a cohesive picture of the broad expectrum that Deb's has covered in his impressive catalogue. Congrats to the compilers. Great job. Favorite track: Experience.

hoodoojukebox Tropical disco joy!!! Favorite track: Mauve Chauffe.

Mr Crumbone Another great expedition in the vaults of Disques Debs: this one has a wilder range of genres then vol. 1 & so a better view of the labels’ divercity. Favorite track: Ti Jenes An Nou.

about

Strut present the second volume in a series of compilations taken from the archives of Disques Debs International, the longest-running and most prolific label of the French Caribbean.
Set up by the late Henri Debs in the late ‘50s, the label has continued for over 50 years, releasing hundreds of records and playing a pivotal role in bringing the creole music of Guadeloupe and Martinique to a wider international audience.

Volume 2 of the series focuses on the label’s ‘70s output and the development of the unique Cadence sound, pulling disparate influences into a Pan-Caribbean blend of rhythms, styles and languages that dominated the dancehalls, clubs and concerts of the decade.
Based in a small but state-of-the-art studio on the first floor of Henri Debs’ Club 97-1, just outside Pointe-à-Pitre in the town of Gosier, the label hosted sessions from the cream of local and regional talent, hothousing ideas into over 100 LP and 45 releases over the decade that reflected an increasingly confident creole identity.

Groups like Les Vikings, Super Combo and Typical Combo along with a host of lesser-known bands were in fierce but friendly competition in the bals, dances and concerts in Guadeloupe, across the region and into Metropolitan France. Haitian Compas, Congolese influences from le Ry-Co Jazz, cadence-lypso and reggae from Dominica and a heavy dose of jazz and Puerto Rican salsa were thrown into the mix alongside local biguine, quadrille and gwo ka to power an unrivalled recorded output.

Compiled by Hugo Mendez (Sofrito) and Emile Omar (Roseaux), ‘Cadence Revolution’ is released in conjunction with Henri Debs et Fils and Air Caraibes. The package features previously unseen photos from the Debs archive with both formats featuring extensive liner notes and an interview with singer and trombonist Christian Zora (Les Maxel’s, Energy).

Shareeoro band rips into this track with such dance fever that you just have to move to the batterista beat, then followed by the vocal wonders of Faadumo Qaasin Hillowle, then the sound of the keyboard just beckons everyone into another stratosphere of its own. Welcome to Shareero's band world. Thanks to Colonel Abshir's tenuous efforts in keeping those archives safe and our indebted gratitude to Analog Africa for bringing these songs back to orbit. idiris hagi
