Mint Condition w/ Randy Ellis & Big Happy

A state of mind more than a grading scale, Mint Condition journeys deep into an abyss of new, classic, and obscure 12" and 7" records - with a focus toward high-end boogie, disco, two step, sweet soul, italo, house and modern funk.

Samba Mapangala

Samba Mapangala

Samba Mapangala has been played on NTS in shows including The Do!! You!!! Breakfast Show w/ Charlie Bones, featured first on 14 March 2017. Songs played include Agatha Maminoue, Mashariki and Yembele.

Singer Samba Mapangala hails originally from the Congo, but has lived and performed variously in Uganda, Kenya, and the United States. Mapangala formed the Orchestra Virunga in the early 1980s, and their scintillating mix of rhumba, soukous, and leaner African forms has become legendary. Polyrhythms, glittering guitar lines, and Mapangala's gorgeous, soaring voice.
