ABA's Air SALON

ABA's Air Salon in collaboration with Echobox Radio Amsterdam presents Behind the Mountains #9 by Edo Bouman.

Edo Bouman is a tropical vinyl specialist from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. He is the co-founder of the Vintage Voudou record shop, and Bombay Connection Records. He specializes in sourcing the most incredible music from all around the world, recorded in countries ranging from Trinidad to Kenya, Greece, Gabon, Guadeloupe, Ethiopia, Egypt, India, Turkey, Thailand and beyond. The emphasis is on music with traditional, rootsy elements from the 50s, 60s and 70s, resulting in an contrasting, vibrant mix of genres as diverse as tsifteteli, forro, taarab biguine, calypso, jive, high life, shangaan, luk thung and mambo. With the Vintage Voudou crew, he regularly organizes music events and performs as DJ.

Behind the Mountains is a show on Echo Box Radio hosted by Rozaly "shedding light on what lies behind the mountains: the music and culture you never expected to be there." The focus is usually on electronic music. Edo Bouman focusses in this edition on world wide analog sounds.

ABA Air SALON is a radio format produced by Air Berlin Alexanderplatz, a Berlin based artist initiative dealing with the distribution and documentation of forms of collective and experimental knowledge production. The broadcasts come from different locations in Berlin where we organize salons. At these salons we meet with local actors, artists, scientists and other cultural producers to exchange around research based artistic projects and practices.
