With all eyes turned to South-Africa and the World Cup these days, we’ll try to point your ears to the African continent as well. Two hours of music hailing from or inspired by Africa, from places like South-Africa, Gambia, Cameroon, Nigeria, Ghana, Congo, France, USA, UK, … By no means a comprehensive overview of what the continent has to offer musically, but rather a blend of styles old and new to get you warmed up for the final stages of the soccer-fest – go Ghana!
