Lagos All Routes is an essential installment in Honest Jon's celebrated compilation series, diving deep into the rich musical landscapes of Nigeria. Showcasing a carefully curated selection of jazz, folk, and world influences, this collection highlights both Fela-inspired funk and more traditional, rootsy tracks — painting a vibrant portrait of Lagos' diverse soundscape in the mid-20th century.
This release stands out for its mellow, downtempo atmosphere, offering a unique contrast to its companion compilation, Lagos Chop Up. Featuring an array of obscure artists and accompanied by striking packaging with informative liner notes, Lagos All Routes is perfect for listeners eager to explore the subtler, groove-filled side of highlife and Afrobeat history.
