The label Kalita releases the fourth and final instalment of its “Borga Revolution!” series devoted to Ghanaian highlife. The volume spans deep, hypnotic highlife through to the electronic productions of 1980s Burger Highlife, a time when Ghanaian musicians were absorbing funk, disco, boogie and new synthesizer technology. Earlier volumes were championed by Gilles Peterson, Antal, Tom Ravenscroft and Hunee; this time the focus is on the music of the Ghanaian diaspora.
The compilation features rare recordings by Rex Omar, Nat Fredua and CST Amankwah, as well as the elusive, hypnotic pieces of the Abibifo Dance Band of Ghana, led by the legendary bassist Ralph Karikari, and Baffour Kyei. The material, which has lain in obscurity for over forty years, includes deep highlife, rhythmic dancefloor tracks and pioneering digital productions, made both in Ghana and abroad.
The context: in the 1970s and 80s, Ghanaian musicians began incorporating Western influences — funk and disco — into their music. Political instability, military regimes, curfews and economic hardship forced many to leave for Europe and the U.S. There they fused highlife traditions with emerging digital sounds, using the DX7 synthesizer and drum machines, and gave rise to Burger Highlife. The series is accompanied by rare interviews, archival photographs and detailed liner notes covering both celebrated icons and forgotten innovators of Ghanaian music. The release is aimed at DJs, collectors and anyone drawn to the inventive sounds of Ghana.
