(Nigéria, outra vez | 33 – 45 on February 19th, 2010)The Torreadors – Gwinitshe is awesome. does vinyl ever come up for sale?
(soundsworkshop on March 13th, 2010)Ever since I stumbled upon “Nigeria Special Vol.2″ recently(and from the record sleeve onto this site)I’ve been raving to anyone who’ll listen about how great Soundway is. Now with this brilliant mix (and others), plus the ability to link on facebook they don’t have to just take my word for it. Marvelous record label, and big praise to all involved!
(David Lusby on May 10th, 2010)the muluken melesse track is one of my all-time favourites since i heard Patrick Forge play it many years ago. I would kill to get my hands on a copy of the Phillips original – simply beautiful music.
