World review: Orchestre Poly-Rythmo De Cotonou, The Vodoun Effect

This thrillingly hectic West African ensemble more than merit their own album, writes Ben Thompson
  
  


Creators of the standout track on African Scream Contest (crate-digger Samy Ben Redjeb's previous collection), this thrillingly hectic West African ensemble more than merit their own album. And if you've wondered what James Brown-inspired Seventies floor-fillers from the home of voodoo sound like, well, they're not kidding about the 'poly-rythmo' bit.
