A 3 track africa ep (10m 44s) — released October 6th 2023 on Sheba Sound

Sheba Sound presents a bunch of drum and bass versions of the hit single 'Eybelundey Eybelu' by Woliyu Dutama, expertly remixed by London-based dub producer Nick Manasseh.

Great fodder for DJs and collectors to give a unique dynamism to their sets.

Originally recorded by Sheba Sound in Ethiopia in 2014, with banjo and bass overdubs later added from the highly talented Cory Seznec and Bubu Teklemariam.

Eybelundey Eybelu showcases cultural music from the Mareqo tribe of Southern Ethiopia, plying the funky 'Gurage' style breakbeat to their intoxicating music.
