Edikanfo’s The Pace Setters is a vital chapter in the story of West African music, blending jubilant highlife rhythms with the driving energy of afro-funk. Originally released in 1981 and recorded at Studio One in Accra, Ghana, this debut captures the exuberance of a band at the heart of a vibrant scene, with spirited horns and infectious grooves produced by the legendary Brian Eno.
This Glitterbeat reissue shines a spotlight on a true classic, featuring thoughtful artwork and liner notes that dive deep into the album’s cultural roots. Celebrated for its electrifying musicianship and genre-spanning sound, The Pace Setters remains a standout work for fans of jazz, soul, funk, and world music alike.
