Tony Allen

Shelter day 49, May 4th, 2020—installment 18 of live-streamed, all-vinyl DJ sets while we’re sheltering during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A tribute to the late Fela Kuti drummer and creator of the Afrobeat rhythm—Tony Allen’s musical innovation never stopped. A small sampling of his range—from early Fela days to his recent afro house productions and remixes. Enjoy!
