Homowo: High Life Music

Homowo: High Life Music cover art

Fusing deeply traditional West African rhythms with the slick, highly synthesized production of 1980s dance music, this vibrant release captures the evolution of modern Highlife. 'Homowo' prominently utilizes funky, driving basslines and electric keyboards to modernize complex Ghanaian percussion and joyous, intertwining vocal harmonies. The infectious, highly danceable record was primarily aimed at the international expatriate market and European discotheques.
