‘African Power’ does like its horns, and they sound so African that they remind me of Hugh Masekela, which is maybe the intention. Not normally my thing, but it works well here so all good. Once we move from the original, then things get deeper. Trinidadiandeep’s interpretation is a dead ringer for Ron Trent and any of the collabs he did with Anthony Nicholson vibe wise. I’m thinking ‘Soul Samba Express’ right about now, which obviously links not at all tenuously to the aforementioned producer’s ‘Mediterranean Disco Mix’ of ‘Keep Movin’’, a razor-sharp samba that doesn’t differ that much from the original mix, but is longer and places more emphasis on the keys. Lovely stuff!
