Colonel Abshir - the senior employee ████ ████ and protector of Radio Mogadishu's archives - ████ ████ clarified that the pile consisted mostly of ████ ████ music nobody had manage to identify, or music ████ ████ he described as being "mainly instrumental and ████ ████ strange music". At the words "strange music" ████ ████ Samy was hooked, the return flight to Tunisia ████ ████ was cancelled. ████ ████ ████ ████ The pile turned out to be a cornucopia of ████ ████ different sounds: radio jingles, background ████ ████ music, interludes for radio programmes, ████ ████ television shows and theatre plays. There were ████ ████ also a good number of disco tunes, some had ████ ████ been stripped of their lyrics, the interesting ████ ████ parts had been recorded multiple times then ████ ████ cut, taped together and spliced into a long ████ ████ groovy instrumental loop. Over the next three ████ ████ weeks, often in watermelon, grapefruit juice ████ ████ and shisha-fuelled night-time sessions behind ████ ████ the fortified walls of Radio Mogadishu, Samy ████ ████ and the archive staff put together "Mogadisco: ████ ████ Dancing Mogadishu, 1974û1991". ████ ████ ████ ████ Like everywhere in Africa during the 1970s, ████ ████ both men and women sported huge afros, bell- ████ ████ bottom trousers and platform shoes. James ████ ████ Brown, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and The ████ ████ Temptations' funk were the talk of the town. ████ ████ ████ ████ In 1977, Iftin Band were invited to perform at ████ ████ the Festac festival in Lagos where they ████ ████ represented Somalia at the Second World Black ████ ████ and African Festival of Arts and Culture. Not ████ ████ only did they come back with an award but they ████ ████ also returned with Afrobeat. While Fela Kuti's ████ ████ 'Shakara' had taken over the continent and was ████ ████ spreading like wildfire throughout Latin ████ ████ America, it was the track 'Lady' that would ████ ████ become the hit in Mogadishu. ████ ████ ████ ████ At the same time Bob Marley was busy kick- ████ ████ starting reggae-mania in Somalia, which became ████ ████ such a phenomenon that even the police and ████ ████ military bands began playing it. Some say that ████ ████ it was adopted so quickly because of the ████ ████ strong similarities with the traditional beat ████ ████ from the western region of Somalia, called ████ ████ Dhaanto. ████ ████ ████ ████ But then suddenly the trousers got tighter as ████ ████ the disco tsunami hit the country. Michael ████ ████ Jackson appeared with a new sound that would ████ ████ revolutionise Somalia's live music scene. You ████ ████ couldn't walk the streets of Mogadishu without ████ ████ seeing kids trying to moonwalk. ████ ████ ████ ████ "Somalia had several nightclubs and although ████ ████ most use DJs to play records, some hotels like ████ ████ Jubba, Al-Uruba and Al Jazeera showcased live ████ ████ bands such as Iftin and Shareero" - so ran a ████ ████ quote from a 1981 article about the explosion ████ ████ of Mogadishu's live music scene. The venues ████ ████ mentioned in that article were the luxury ████ ████ hotels that had been built to cover the ████ ████ growing demands of the tourist industry. The ████ ████ state-of-the-art hotel Al-Uruba, with its ████ ████ oriental ornaments and white plastered walls, ████ ████ was a wonder of modern architecture. All of ████ ████ Mogadishu's top bands performed there at some ████ ████ point or another, and many of the songs ████ ████ presented in this compilation were created in ████ ████ such venues. ████ ████ ████ ████ Mogadisco was not Analog Africa's easiest ████ ████ project. Tracking down the musicians - often ████ ████ in exile in the diaspora - to interview them ████ ████ and gather anecdotes of golden-era Mogadishu ████ ████ has been an undertaking that took three years. ████ ████ Tales of Dur-Dur Band's kidnapping, movie ████ ████ soundtracks recorded in the basements of ████ ████ hotels, musicians getting electrocuted on ████ ████ stage, others jumping from one band to another ████ ████ under dramatic circumstances, and soul singers ████ ████ competing against each other, are all stories ████ ████ included in the massive booklet that ████ ████ accompanies the compilation - adorned with no ████ ████ less then 50 pictures from the '70s and '80s. ████ ████ ████ ████ As Colonel Abshir Hashi Ali, chief don at the ████ ████ Radio Mogadishu archive - someone who once ████ ████ wrestled a bomber wielding an unpinned hand- ████ ████ grenade to the floor - put it: "I have ████ ████ dedicated my life to this place. I'm doing ████ ████ this so it can get to the next generation; so ████ ████ that the culture, the heritage and the songs ████ ████ of Somalia don't disappear." ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ URL: n/a ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ▄▀▀███▓▄ ▄▓███▀▀▄ ████ ████ ■ ███▓█ .···.
