Another piece in the Tony Allen remix project from Honest Jon’s, though to be honest (ha!) I doubt there’s much of a Tony original to be heard in this track from Diplo. “Fuji Ouija(1)” is one big slab of pawrty music with a kuduro rhythm, addictive rave synth progression and hyperactive vocal sample triggering from the dinosaur. UK vets Newham Generals are up next with “Tetsuya’s Theme(2),” a nasty piece of instrumental grime centered around some Afro-folk beats. Flip features two cuts of incredible percussion by Elewedu of Agege - “Boys & Girls(3)” and “Thank You(4)” - recorded in Lagos, Nigeria. A-side plays at 45; B-side at 33.
