Ad text
Zak from Rough Trade East recommends ‘Teodros Makonnen With His Organ’, a cornerstone of Ethiopian music’s early digital sounds, originally released on cassette only, more or less unknown outside of Ethiopia until now. The album has been carefully restored and remastered for the first time on vinyl by Muzikawi, a record label, music publisher and promotor based in Addis Ababa, dedicated to preserving and legalizing Ethiopian music. Pick it up at Rough Trade, in stores and online, accompanied by extensive liner notes in English and Amharic, as well as previously unpublished photographs from the archives of Teodros’ friend and long-time collaborator Teferi ‘Bibisha’ Mengesha. Counter Culture is a weekly series spotlighting the records shaping conversation across our stores. Staff picks, deep cuts and new (plus old) discoveries, direct from the people living and breathing music every day. The simple joy of putting someone onto something great. What’s the last great album someone recommended to you?
