Francis Bebey, “African Electronic Music 1975-1982” (Born Bad, 2012)
The title is an accurate generic description, but only hints at the weirdness and wonder herein. Using an early synth, the Camerounian Bebey wove a stripped-down minimal-electronic funk with hints of polyrhythm, tossed-off voiceovers, and brain-scrambling sound effects. Picture a Franco-African cross between Zapp and Suicide and you’re getting warm, but you really just gotta hear it.
Try 4, 7, 9, 10.
