Chouk Bwa & The Angstromers
Ayiti Kongo Dub #2
Following on from the first edition released earlier in 2022, Les Disques Bongo Joe are pleased to announce 'Ayiti Kongo Dub EP#2' by Chouk Bwa & The Ångströmers. Following on from 2020's acclaimed album 'Vodou Ale,' Chouk Bwa turn up the heat for this exhilarating trip into their bush of ghosts by introducing a new stripped down line-up to fire up the dance floor, based exclusively on the drums and rhythms of the Haitian kongo rite and deep electronic dub expansions by their trusted Belgian counterparts The Ångströmers. As Afro-Caribbean polyrhythms meet bass-weight dub electronics, the two part EP has documented the group experimenting with a stripped back form which focuses on the dimension of trance. Opening with a cermonial chant and designed to enduce dancefloor delirium, the first track taken from the EP is the raw, high-octane, primordial techno of 'Zemedo,' followed by 'Sala' and 'Petwo Raboday.'
