Tomede Ehue & L'international Orchestre - Bella Bello [LP]

The third release from Canopy features the title track from a deep Afro funk 7" originally released on private press in Benin in the 1980s. Electrifying cosmic voodoo disco grooves, heavy bass pulsing, blistering horns and spooky organ riffs set the tone on this transcendental piece over which floats the beautifully mesmerising harmonies of vocalist Tomede Ehue. A modernised tropical disco remix from bosq & an acid-afro version from Sam Redmore revitalise this slice of mysterious dance floor fire and propel it into the present day.
