Soundway Records Announce New Compilation “Kenya Special Two”

Soundway Records have announced the release of their new compilation “Kenya Special Two”. The new twenty-track compilation follows on from the label’s 2013 released Kenya Special, which explored the musical landscape of 1970s and 1980s Kenya. The featured songs on this collection “bend the rules, break away from existing genres and sometimes experiment with foreign music trends” and has its origins in “a youthful movement of vinyl collecting, as well as, to some extent, club culture”. It will be released October 7th on vinyl. You can listen to one of the compilation’s tracks, ‘I Can Feel It’ by Lulu’s Band here. Pre-order the release HERE.
