Kalita present the fourth and final instalment of their groundbreaking ‘Borga Revolution!’ series, uncovering another selection of essential recordings from the rich and far-reaching world of Ghanaian highlife.

Spanning deep, hypnotic highlife through to the vibrant electronic productions of 1980s Burger Highlife, Volume 4 captures a period of extraordinary musical change, as Ghanaian artists absorbed influences from funk, disco, boogie, and new synthesizer technology.

With previous volumes championed by tastemakers including Gilles Peterson, Antal, Tom Ravenscroft, and Hunee, this final chapter turns its attention once again to the music of the Ghanaian diaspora.

Volume 4 brings together rare recordings from artists such as Rex Omar, Nat Fredua, and CST Amankwah, alongside the elusive, deeply hypnotic and beautiful sounds of the Abibifo Dance Band of Ghana (led by the legendary bassist Ralph Karikari) and Baffour Kyei. Unearthing recordings that have languished in obscurity for over forty years, the compilation moves between deep highlife, rhythmic dancefloor cuts, and pioneering digital productions, revealing yet more musical ingenuity of Ghanaian artists both home and abroad. The final instalment in the ‘Borga Revolution!’ series, it offers another vital collection of forgotten favourites and hidden treasures for DJs, collectors, and anyone drawn to the endlessly inventive sounds of Ghanaian music.

Kalita Records proudly return to the vaults of South Africa’s trailblazing Music Team label to present five essential, long-lost disco and boogie gems. Lovingly remastered and primed for today’s dance floors, these carefully curated cuts from Maurice Horwitz’s pioneering imprint showcase the very best of Music Team’s output – finally sparing DJs and collectors the sky-high prices and endless hunts for elusive original copies.

Spanning both disco and boogie, the EP opens with Linda’s highly sought-after 1986 anthem ‘I Love Soweto’, before shifting to Abigail Kubheka’s irresistible 1978 disco burner ‘Charisma’, originally released on Music Team’s Spinner subsidiary.

Flipping to the B-side, the spotlight remains on Spinner with Jappie Lebona’s mythical 1984 boogie cut ‘You’ve Got It’, produced by the legendary Tom Mkhize, whose touch also graced Norma T’s 1987 dancefloor bomb ‘Move To The Beat’. Both vocal and instrumental versions of the latter are included here for the first time since their original release.

With this collection, Kalita shines a light once more on the phenomenal creativity of Music Team and its artists during South Africa’s vibrant disco and boogie era of the late ’70s and ’80s, ensuring these treasures continue to receive the attention they deserve.

Kalita are proud to present a 2-year anniversary repress of Emerson’s 1988 mythical electro boogie grail ‘Sending All My Love Out’, accompanied by two remixes courtesy of the genre’s most respected innovators, Egyptian Lover and Detroit In Effect. Limited to only 500 copies, pressed on electrifying yellow 12” vinyl.

Originally privately released as an obscure 7” single on LAS Records, operated by visionary power couple Emerson and Leora Sandidge, ‘Sending All My Love Out’ has since transformed into a hallowed grail among dance music collectors, enthusiasts and DJs alike, commanding sky-high prices on the second-hand scene.

A late 80’s electro boogie anthem, featuring a heavy mix of synthesizer and drum-machine euphoria, overlaid with Emerson and Leora’s own vocals, the recording truly is in a league of its own.

And to do justice to its legendary status, Kalita has dusted off the original multi-track master tapes and enlisted two of the electro scene’s most revered figures, namely Egyptian Lover and Detroit In Effect, to remix and elevate the track in their own signature style.

A truly special release.
