DEMOS DENIRAN (Nigeria/1980)



Chers auditeurs, pardon pour cette longue période de mutisme. J'ai travaillé tout l'été sur des documentaires, l'un sur la Guadeloupe et l'autre sur la Namibie. Je ne peux pas vous dire le plaisir que j'ai pris. Je vous tiendrai au courant des dates de diffusion télé.
Je vous fais découvrir aujourd'hui la musique afrobeat de Demos Deniran, un artiste Nigerian très respecté pas des compagnons de routes tels que Sonny Okosun ou Ebenezer Obey qui lui consacreront un album en son hommage intitulé "Final Race".


Dear listeners  sorry for this long period without music. I have been working all summer on very interesting documentaries about Guadalupe and Namibia.
I invite you to discover Demos Deniran's music (Real name Moses Adeniran). Great afrobeat from Nigeria. Deniran passed on in 1995 but remains highly respected in Nigerian musical and religious circles with stars such as Sonny Okosun and Ebenezer Obey coming out to perform tributes to him, including recording an album called "Final Race".

Demos Deniran a participé au fameux festival culturel africain organisé au Nigeria en 1977. J'ai trouvé un morceau tiré de cet album que je voudrais partager avec vous. Le titre est "FESTAC (Ariya)".


Demos Deniran participated to FESTAC's famous african cultural event in 1977. I found a track taken from the album that I want to share with you. It is called "FESTAC (Ariya)".




L'autre album que je vous présente a été enregistré en 1980 avec l'orchestre The Luko Resurgento. Un album afrobeat profond et hypnotique. J'adore, tous les morceaux sont excellents.


The other LP was recorded in 1980 with The Luko Resurgento band. It is deep and hypnotic afrobeat music. I love it, every tracks are particularly great.
