♫♪  Roger Peet - OBENGE RECORDINGS

I admittedly can’t add much to the description of this tape provided by the Ewe of Now Recordings label website, which describes the details of this release perfectly:

OBENGE RECORDINGS is a collection of field recordings by Roger Peet, recorded in the Congo in a now vanished village called “OBENGE”. It has since been burned to the ground by military. The village was very small, and unfortunately neighbor to a ruthless ivory warlord who terrorized them and put them in harms way. EWE OF NOW was fortunate enough to capture these songs on cassette for your listening enjoyment. They are full of life, from a place where life is more real than we are accustomed to. All proceeds from the sales of this cassette go to Roger’s relief work in the in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and hopefully this isn’t the last volume.

Pick up the tape over from the OBENGE RECORDINGS and listen below via the Bandcamp page:
