African Head Charge – In Pursuit Of Shashamane Land (Vinyl)
African Head Charge conjured a potent variety of psychedelic dub, which blended the boom and echo of classic reggae production with intricate West African polyrhythms and sampled vocals from nearly every religion on earth.
The band got started at the beginning of the 1980s as a partnership between producer Adrian Sherwood and the Jamaican percussionist Bonjo Iyabinghi Noah.
In Pursuit of Shashamane Land was originally issued in 1993 and served as the last African Head Charge album on On-U Sound for 12 years, released at the height of the band's popularity as a staple of live music festivals. Continuing the skillful fusion of styles they had explored on Songs Of Praise, this album added elements of trance and electronica to their trademark percussion-heavy sound.
African Head Charge blend dub, trance, electronica and world music throughout with Bonjo Iyabinghi Noah at the helm and typically skillful production from Adrian Sherwood.
