REVIEWS
"A 10" featuring the finest that highlife has to offer. A pair of incredible tracks produced by Charles Amoah utilising limited equipment to create an authentic party atmosphere, jovial flutes and plucky strings are the accompaniment to A.B. Entsils's proclamation of joy - put this on at the party and the room are sure to start moving.” - JUNO
"Secousse and Hot Mule synergise, and shine, collaborating on a reissue of A.B. Crentsil’s sought after 1992 feel-good Burger Highlife hit, Obi Baa Wiase. Its whistling synth melody bouncing along on bright, uplifting, piano, the sublime production boasting both a soaring backing chorus, and some serious, serious guitar from Ralph Karikari." - BAN BAN TON TON
"Hot Mule and Secousse never cease to delight us, release after release. On Obi Baa Wiase we hear a synthetic and asymmetrical funk, solar and futuristic: a highlife 2.0 called Burger Highlife" - PHONOGRAPH CORP
“The hybrid highlife sound fuelled by synthetic machine drums and embellished with elements of disco, jazz, funk and pop proved an irresistible fit for Crentsil, whose distinctive vocal sits immaculately atop the electronic bed carved out by Amoah. An EP primed to ignite re-issue delight among esoteric diggers and disciples of the global groove." - JUNO DAILY
