"Kazukuta" (Angola, 1974)

"Kazukuta" is the name of a traditional Angolan carnival dance, but this is one of the few Angolan tracks I've heard that incorporates experimental elements. OK, "experimental" is perhaps a bit of stretch, but it is incredibly odd nonetheless to hear a bizarre interlude like the reverb and delay-drenched vocal pile-up that dominates the middle of this song, which is unusually funky for Angola to begin with. A curiosity perhaps, but a very good one.
