This compilation focuses on the early work of this outstanding singer, arranger, and composer from Senegal. In the mid- seventies he created rhythms that preceded some drum and bass riddims by 25 years but remained pretty much unknown to the western world.

"Crafting a mix of popular international styles defined by strong vocals, with a backing female chorus, electric guitar, sax, keyboards and an array of West African percussion, Ouza melded West African and Afro-Cuban infiuences in early anticipation of today's drum 'n' bass sound." - Michael Stone (Read the coplete review in fRoots)

Please note!
Most CDs have been imported from Europe or Asia. They are not all shrink-wrapped, and I am not going to con you by wrapping them here just to make you think they have been sterilized in America. We guarantee that the CDs and the contents are all brand new and in perfect condition. Whenever I can, I use recycled shipping materials. They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier.
