New Shit: Central African Republic singer, bassist and Selenites bandleader Bibi Tanga joined forces with Professeur Inlassable on new album Dunya, the latest release from this Parisian Funk group.  He bridges the divide between the arty South Bank of the Seine and the gritty suburbs, where he grew up as an immigrant. Bibi’s music is marked by slinky, sinuous basslines and a wicked falsetto that conjures up Prince and Curtis Mayfield, while producer Professeur Inlassable (“The Tireless Professor”) digs deep beneath the cobblestones of Paris to unearth the sound and spirit of another era. Together with Bibi’s band The Selenites, the duo forges a stunningly original new sound, and creates a space where Afro-futurism meets steampunk, Fela Kuti jams with Sidney Bechet, and Marcel Duchamp gets down to Chic.

Listen to the track Bê Africa below.

Had music burn out. Then I listened to this. Refreshing AND catchy. Saved! For now, at least.
