The Soundway label has specialised in reviving great but rare vintage tracks from West Africa that had previously only been released on vinyl, but it is now also becoming known for adventurous new music. Ibibio Sound System are a British-based band who specialise in updating African highlife, Afro-beat and gospel styles, which are mixed in with electronics and echoes of African psychedelia. Led by British/Nigerian singer Eno Williams, whose songs are based around folk stories from southeast Nigeria, this is an eight-piece band that veers intriguingly between the contemporary and echoes of the 70s and 80s. The album starts and ends with drifting gospel songs (including a reworking of Amazing Grace) treated with shimmering electronic effects. Elsewhere, on I'm Running or Let's Dance, they mix bubbling percussion and slinky bass lines with tight brass punctuation and wailing electronics. I suspect they will sound even better live.
