Various - Kampire Presents: A Dancefloor in Ndola

Kampire draws on the music of her formative years in Ndola, Zambia, for this thirteen-track Strut compilation. The selection moves through Congolese rumba and soukous, South African township bubblegum and Zambian kalindula, connecting the guitar-led and electronic dance sounds that continue to inform her DJ sets. Women including Pembey Sheiro, Princesse Mansia M’Bila, V-Mash and Di Groovy Girls feature across the programme. Kampire contributes an edit and personal liner notes tracing her relationship with the music. The double LP includes cover artwork by Canon Rumanzi, with vinyl restoration and mastering by The Carvery.
