麻豆社

Lopa Kothari presents the best in global roots music. And - in the week that South African choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo make their 麻豆社 Proms debut at the Royal Albert Hall, marking forty years since their stellar contribution to Paul Simon鈥檚 era-defining album, Graceland - Soweto鈥檚 indigenous afro-psychedelic funk ambassadors BCUC join Lopa to share three tracks that have shaped their musical world. Also, hypnotic vintage sounds from an obscure early cassette release by Soussi Amazigh singer Safia Tachtoukt, and we pay tribute to great Colombian folk music ambassador Tot贸 la Momposina on what would have been her 86th birthday.
