Description
Luke Una taps into a lifetime’s worth of musical discovery for the second volume in the Mr Bongo Edits series. Two rare, South African bombs that straddle disco, boogie, funk and Afro.
First up, Thandi Zulu & The Young Five’s interpretation of Pure Energy’s early ‘80s disco power play – ‘Love Game’ . With a distinctive South African synth bass and killer keys combo, Luke explains the original has this “bonkers alchemy of heavy machine soul, uptempo rawness and a majestic disco evangelism” , making it ripe for a re - edit.
On the B side, Lionel Pillay’s Jazz dancer ‘Plum’. “The original was a relentless 18 - minute raw jam”, Luke states, “which despite its late ‘70s South African origin kinda reminded me of a 1986 Chicago piano House record ”
