Description

This amazing still unheard monster album crosses many styles, from synth music merged with bel-air and gwo ka, cosmic reggae, electronic proto disco zouk and spacey jazz funk. The whole album is amazing and will please many collectors, way ahead on its time. BIG tip!

French West Indies continue to deliver some obscure gems and this one, after a long waiting in the dust and anonymity, resurfaces.
This private press was originally conceived in 1982, in a context where many French Carribean musicians were searching for their own style and fusing traditional heritage (Gwo-Ka, Bel Air, Biguine) and synthetic music.

Claude Rodap's Syn-Ka sums it all up and Granit Records is very pleased to begin it's journey through music production by sharing this lp with you !

Note : the LP come with an insert in French, English and Japanese.
