Crammed celebrates its 42nd anniversary by shining a spotlight on some of the lesser-heard global pop from its massive archive. Featuring tracks from Zazou Bikaye, The Honeymoon Killers, Band Apart, Poto Doudongo, and more.
Made up of highlights from the six singles, EPs, mini-albums, and albums released on the same day, and bundled with demos, remixes and one-off singles, "Rare Global Pop" is a history lesson for anyone who only knows Crammed for Tuxedomoon or Colin Newman. Most of the material comes from indie-dub collective People In Control, Kinshasa's rumba funk innovator Maurice Poto Doudongo, Arabic electro-pop producer and Adrian Sherwood collaborator Nadjma, Brussels band Des Airs, US/Mexican beatbox duo Volti, and new wave band By Chance, but there's plenty more in there for the heads.
Particularly interesting is an FM-heavy Jean-Marie Salaun remix of Zazou Bikaye's 'Angel' that might be just as playable as the original, and Gilles Martin and Marc Hollander rework of Karl Biscuit's quirky 'La Morte'. Best of all is a completely spannered mix of Bikaye's 'Dju Ya Feza' by film composer Simon Boswell (he scored Dario Argento's "Phenomena") that sounds like an industrial techno subgenre that never materialized. So much good shit here - dig in.
