Ngozi Family - 45,000 Volts

1970s Zambian Zamrock full of fuzzy guitars and synths. Already famous within the scene they got another wave courtesy of Tyler the Creator's sample of Nizakupanga Ngozi for Noid on their 2024 Chromakopia release.

I suspect this copy is a boot. But given the original is 400 and a represses would ship god knows when it'll do. The original cover is really cool. This international cover is a bit meh.

This is *technically* my partner's record. They'd been eyeing it off for months but it was on the more spenny end. They finally decided to bite the bullet which I'm well pleased about.

On a side note - We were fortunate to see Tyler last month. What a phenomenal performer. Like the Bowie of hip-hop. Constantly reinventing himself both sound, and image.

The sample of Ngozi Family on Noid blasting through the Rod Laver Area sound system was epic!
