Koichi Sakai has been immersed in Afrobeat culture for a long time, not least working closely with Dele Sosimi since 2008 as a resident DJ. Now Sakai is making decisive moves into recording work, partnering up with Afla Sackey to follow up on last year's "Wono EP" with a full album of globe-spanning sounds that celebrate the spirit and groove of original Afrobeat without simply trying to reproduce it. The moods and imagination has no restrictions on this richly expressive record, where threads of house music, Latin, Japanese and so much more can be sensed pulsing through this wholly smooth and soulful stew. It's another big win for emergent London label Olindo, and a surefooted step forward for Sakai and Sackey.
