Video is from the "New Dance Show" Detroit's local (and much better!) version of Soul Train. Also check out "Sharevari @ The Scene" another awesome Detroit dance show from the 80's
I first heard of Ata Kak from his track "Obaa Sima" on the K7 'Afrique Collection' and I fell in love with the track, this one is very similar but even more bouncy and joyfully funky...the only rip I have seen on the net of the Obaa Sima cassette which also has this track is the wonderful Awesome Tapes From Africa blog
(just google "Ata Kak" and "blogspot" (should come up first) I really want to release the tape on CD so if anyone knows where I can get a copy please get in touch.
I totally agree with you Qvaris, this version is of such a higher quality than the wonderful awesometapesfromafrica post of the Ata Kak tape (its a real shame its only 3 minutes as opposed to the 6 minute full version but thats videos for you). Meudiademorte, if you have a better quality version of the Ata Kak tape please get in touch, I would love to re-release the tape on CD.
I kicked the chair out from under me and the top of the chair hit the mouse which somehow ended up on this page with this song and this video. Because of this video I not only discovered the will to live, but I was also able to dance out of the noose! FUCK, THIS SONG BROUGHT MY NANA BACK TO LIFE AND THEN SHE WENT BACK IN TIME AND GAVE MY DAD A BLOW JOB AT THE DRIVE INS!
This shows how closed the intercontinental market is (and our minds are) when it comes to non western music. There is no way any european would have done funky music like this without being noticed. These guys Ata kak ie. have potential. at least electronic music could get a wider variation as a genre.
I remastered these - the tape is available if you search for "ata kak snake equalized" on the net
