Another overlooked gem unearthed from the recent past, this time a Richard Norris remix of a song by Ibibio Sound Machine from 2017. Ibibio Sound Machine are a London based afro- funk/ electronic outfit, a clash of African music and style, post- punk and electro with the vocal talents of front woman Eno Williams, born in London but brought up in Nigeria. Richard puts the West African funk bassline, some funky highlife guitars and Eno's vocal over a bouncing drum machine rhythm and some acid house sounds and creates something to bring some much needed joy to a grim Wednesday in November 2020 and I think we could all do with some midweek joy. You can buy it at Bandcamp.

Aptly named track - wonderful stuff. Always impressed with Mr Norris's ability to turn his hand to any style and master it
