info 

The London based afro-dub ensemble Fofoulah, have followed-up their trailblazing debut album
(?Fofoulah/Glitterbeat/GBCD17/GBLP17) with an even more shapeshifting and adventurous recording. Slippery sabar beats, dystopian electronics and echoing, shamanic chants ratchet up both the dub quotient and the dramatic tension. Creating a soundworld that is both earthy and urban, futurist and rooted - the new album ?Daega Rek? (The Truth) is brought into sharp focus by the rhythms and vocals of Gambian sabar drummer Kaw Secka and the vivid production of keyboardist/saxophonist Tom Challenger. Fofoulah remind us that sonics and human experiences combine, resonate and land where they will. ?Fortress? mentalities can slow this down, but the spirit of morphing and connectivity still flashes forward.
