Fett-Distroアイテム!Jimi Tenorによって設立されたレーベル〈Ronet Records〉。ジミ・テナーとの共演で知られるアフロビートバンドKABU KABUのEkow Alabi Savageのソロ!
First single from Ekowmania's upcoming album "Dr. Afrodub" is the grand Roots/Reggae track "Kwame Nkrumah". This Jimi Tenor production is simply a classic Roots track thatmight have it all; tight big horns, riding drums, a strong voice and magnificent backing choir support elegant and Class-A song writing rarely surfacing in our days. B-side of this 7" is a DJ Sotofett Mix where only the vocals, choir and horns are used for full effect choral version. Ekowmania aka Ekow Alabi Savage from Ghana is the drummer and percussion player in KabuKabu who plays with Jimi Tenor since almost 20 years. Also he is one of the founding members of one the first Afro-Reggae bands in Germany back in 1982. Album released by Ronet Records later in 2024.
Jimi Tenor 作品には欠かせないドラマー、Ekow Alabi Savage。ウォリアースタイルのルーツ・レゲエ、アフロ・ダブ。コブシの効いた、こってりいなたくルーディーなサウンド。ダブの過剰さと相まって最高。B-SIDEは、SOTOFETTによるバージョンとは逆発想のアカペラミックスです。 (サイトウ)
