Various Artists - Mods Vs. Rockers album download

The collection tries to include a few artists from virtually every style of early rock and pop, including British Invasion bands like the Zombies, the Yardbirds, and the Swinging Blue Jeans; girl groups like the Shangri-Las, the Shirelles, and the Dixie Cups; Motown acts like the Temptations, Martha Reeves, and Mary Wells; and surf groups like the Surfaris, Jan & Dean, and the.

The result is this EPIC DOUBLE ALBUM consisting of 26 BRAND-NEW TRACKS inspired by the sound of the Congotronics bands: most of the contributions blur the boundaries between reinventions and covers, reworks and homages.

Crammed Discs asks 26 non-African artists- including Animal Collective, Andrew Bird, Deerhoof, Oneida, and Shackleton- to take on Congotronics. In 1987, a French record label called Ocora released a cassette called Zaïre: Musiques Urbaines á Kinshasa. It was a set of four half-hour performances by four different bands, recorded in Kinshasa, Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo), in 1978. But that music couldn't stay hidden forever. In 2004, producer Vincent Kenis curated an album by one of those street bands that had been recorded in 1978, Konono Nº1, for Crammed Discs (they also recorded a live LP for Terp that year). Konono in 2004 sounded almost exactly like Konono in 1978- a bracing mix of headlong rhythm and interesting texture, created by found-object percussion and crudely electrified likembe thumb pianos.
