Tribute to the soul brother of Benin with rare Afro-funk and digital soul songs from the Maestro. Following the tremendous
Dans le Tchink System
reissue album, Hot Casa wanted to celebrate the legacy of one the greatest singers from Cotonou.
Owhaaou...!
is an original four-track 12 inch vinyl taken from the extremely obscure, futuristic and now expensive record
Metamorphose
released in 1985 and recorded on 24 analog tracks channel with an incredible backing band such as
Hilaire Penda
on bass and
Daniel Bentho
from
Poly Rythmo de Cotonou
to name a few. The B-side is a DJ-friendly edit of the dance floor burner "Zemidjan" recorded in 1991. A composition to pay tribute to the taxi moto of Cotonou. The last track "Mi Tchinker" is a typical
Stanislas Tohon
hit with a mix of Tchink rhythm, soul and funky melodies. The famous soul singer from Cotonou started his musical career at this age of 9, played with the greatest such as
Gnonnas Pedro
and recorded almost 35 albums. Influenced by the traditional "Tchingoume" music, he invented his own rhythm called "Tchink Système", a mix of soul and Beninese traditional rhythm. Sang in Fon, his native language from Benin, this EP is a soulful call for peace, respect, and unity in Africa, a real definition of Afro-soul music! Remastered by The Carvery (UK), officially licensed and strictly limited to 1000 copies.
