Newen Plays Fela

EP recorded in Lagos during the band's formative trip to Nigeria. Three tracks gathering two Fela Anikulapo Kuti compositions with Seun Kuti, Cheick Tidiane Seck and Egypt 80 musicians in direct sessions. Not homage from a distance: it's Newen writing afrobeat alongside those who founded it, in its place of origin. Key document of the bridge the band builds between classic afrobeat and the later Latin American reading.
