Futuristic early 1980s mash-up of African musics & experimental New Wave
‘The work of the Belgian/Congolese duo Denis Mpunga and Paul K. is the subject of Music From Memory’s latest compilation EP, ‘Criola’. Combining elements of traditional African music with experimental electronics, the pair recorded and released only a handful of tracks, scattered across a few obscure LP and cassette compilations. Bringing together this material for the first time ‘Criola’ includes both released as well as unreleased material from the musician’s archives dating from between 1980-1984.’
