Serie Afro. Collection of tapes from DJ Beppe Loda from 1982-1984 filled with obscure cosmic music, but focused on the African sound. TAPE 5/15. Thanks goes out to Jones McDoul for making this available to the public.
------------------
A central figure in Italian club culture, Beppe Loda pioneered the omnivorous ‘Afro’ sound and mixing style that combines everything from proto-industrial and Steve Reich to Afrobeat, disco, sideways new-wave, Celtic folk and krautrock.

Since his first gig at the Kinky club in his hometown Manerbio back in 1973, Loda has been on the hunt for off-the-beaten-track records; but it was during his 1980-1987 residency at the mythical Typhoon club that the disco trendsetter nailed down his vision for the dancefloor. Thousands of young Italians fell under his spell and Loda recorded some of the greatest dance tapes ever made.

Sadly 6:35 till 10:20 is silence due to copyright issue.
