NEW SINGLE Franck Biyong - Oladipo [ Yann Jankielewicz Remix ] out October 9th 2024 on Tangential Music

"With 12 years as a collaborator of the afrobeat pioneer Tony Allen (also co-composer and director of Tony's
Blue Note masterpiece 'The Source'), who better than the Paris based saxophonist, composer, arranger and
producer Yann Jankielewicz to remix Franck Biyong's tribute to the maestro, 'Oladipo'?

The stunning original is propelled by Chief Udoh Essiet's celebratory vocals, pinpoint horns and Tony's peerless
drum patterns but here Yann fires up the fuel tanks, delivering an unhinged afro-house bomba that will undoubtedly
send dancers into a frenzy across the globe.

The production is HUGE. Some of the original drums remain but the addition of tough digi percussion, wildstyle
synths and some brilliant cut-and-paste guitar witchcraft elevates 'Oladipo' into a new realm.

Chief Udoh Essiet's vocals still proclaim and the horns still stab but the energy shouts dancefloor HIT!
