NTS GUIDE TO: '70S ANGOLAN SEMBA & MÉRINGUE

An hour of '70s Angolan Semba & Mergenue, two distinct styles which emerged during Angola’s liberation movement against Portuguese colonial rule through Angolan records labels such as Rebita & Merengue.

Optimo

Optimo is JG Wilkes & JD Twitch; record label, and longstanding Glaswegian party. You can expect a lot from their new monthly slot, sure to dig up some obscurities from post-punk, new wave, EBM, house and techno. Bags of unreleased stuff, too.

Afrobeat Electronica House Jazz

Boiler Room Head of Music, Thristian, is kind enough to lay down a couple hours of pure groove every Sunday, from West African beats through to Norwegian gospel.
