Radio Mukambo 410 - Groovin' in Beljam
This week is one of the busiest of the year in Beljam, with Polé Polé and Trefpunt festival at Gentse Feesten (Ghent) and Sfinks festival in Antwerp. They bring in international names like Orchestra Baobab, Jungle by Night, Throes + The Shine, Gato Preto, Maga Bo, and local talent such as Kolonel Djafaar, Baloji, Anavantou, Azmari & Kosmo Sound.
The cd of the week takes us to Tel Aviv, where the 14 piece Hoodna orchestra serves a blend of free flow afrobeat riddims, heavy dance-floor afro-funk and a lot of ethiojazz on their latest release 'Ofel'.
