Our Take

Upon first listen to VARIOUS ARTISTS Buganda Royal Music Revival, my initial reaction was one of confusion mixed with intrigue. The eclectic mix of traditional Bugandan sounds and modern production techniques created a sonic landscape that was both foreign and familiar at the same time. It's as if you were attending a royal ceremony in Buganda while simultaneously dancing the night away at a trendy nightclub in London.

The album kicks off with the energetic track "Kabaka's Anthem", a rousing celebration of Bugandan culture complete with hypnotic drum beats and soaring vocals. It's a bold introduction that sets the tone for the rest of the album. However, things take a surprising turn with "Royal Remix", a playful blend of Bugandan folk melodies and electronic dance music.

As the album progresses, we are treated to a diverse range of sounds and styles, from the hauntingly beautiful "Ngomas of the Past" to the infectious grooves of "Buganda Boogie". Each track offers something unique and unexpected, keeping the listener on their toes and eager for more.

In conclusion, VARIOUS ARTISTS Buganda Royal Music Revival is a delightful and innovative exploration of Bugandan music that is sure to captivate and entertain audiences of all kinds. It's a whirlwind journey through tradition and innovation, sound and style, that is not to be missed. Buganda may be a kingdom in Uganda, but this album reigns supreme in the world of music.
