William Onyeabor – Atomic Bomb
Album
William Onyeabor released his records on his own Wilfilms label in Enugu and said little about how they were made, which adds to their mystery. Atomic Bomb is built on home-grown synthesiser riffs, organ and repeated chant-like vocals over long, hypnotic grooves. Nothing else from late-1970s Nigeria sounds quite like it. Choose it if you like early electronic dance music and outsider pop.
