Forget postcard tropics — this is Zimbabwe’s red dust, pulsing with groove. 🎶

With Chigiyo Music Kings 1987-1998, Analog Africa resurrects the Zig-Zag Band, a legendary 1980s crew and pioneer of chigiyo, that mutant form of reggae born from resistance and spirituality.

Raw, mystical and irresistibly rhythmic, it tells the story of a nation through its deep basslines and mbira-like guitars.
