A companion mini-album to ‘Heavy Combination’, last year’s career-spanning compilation documenting some of the amazing music recorded over five decades by the late Joseph Kamaru, a towering figure in post-colonial Kenyan culture.

This new record presents five more gems from the archives, chosen by Disciples and Joseph Kamaru’s grandson, the sound artist KMRU.

Carefully remastered from original tape transfers, with liner notes by Kenyan academic Maina wa Mũtonya.

Praise for ‘Heavy Combination’: “Showcases Kamaru’s infectious blend of 70s funk with plaintive group vocals, highlife guitar and driving grooves. An east African gem.” - The Guardian; “Dallying with highlife, folk, disco and gospel, these joyous street-tough workouts sneak political activism into infectious grooves.” - Mojo (4/5); “Tune in to discover a significant artist at the top of his game.” - Aquarium Drunkard; “It’s a compilation that runs quite the gamut, from rubbery funk-pop to later echo-drenched and drum machine-led songs. An infectious listen from start to finish.” - The Quietus
